[Verse]
        D                Em
He said sit down son, we gotta talk
       A          D
I said its my life, Im gonna do what I want
Bm            Em
Im gonna crawl, and Im gonna walk
A                      D
Walk right out of that door
 
          D           Em
He said I used to be alot like you
       A               D
Theres nothing you done that I didnt do
  Bm                    Em
I laughed and said, dad im bullet proof
A                          D
We've been through this before
 
[Bridge]
             Bm     G
I couldnt believe it
             D                   A
There was a tear in my old's man eye
             Bm    G
When I was leaving
   G
He tried to say goodbye
 
[Chorus]
              D               A
He says stand tall when you stumble
       Bm            G
Stay proud when your humble ?
    D            A                   G        D
The lessons you learned, wont be the ones you plan
      Bm           D
Every step up that mountain
        G               Bm
Will be more than whats counting ?
             Em               Bm
But when you walk through the valley
        G           D    D  A  Bm  G
May you walk like a man
 
[Verse]
     D                      Em
I've seen a couple of miles on a gravel road
A                         D
Taught a couple of things I didnt know
    Bm            Em
Now, I even got a kid of my own
A                   D
Starting to sound alot like me
     D                      Em
I learned a little thing called sacrifice
         A                 D
Givin up on dreams, Lost a couple fights
  Bm              Em
All anybody wants is a better life
G
Something to believe
 
[Chorus]
              D               A
He says stand tall when you stumble
       Bm            G
Stay proud when your humble ?
    D            A                   G        D
The lessons you learned, wont be the ones you plan
      Bm           D
Every step up that mountain
        G               Bm
Will be more than whats counting ?
             Em               Bm
But when you walk through the valley
        G           D
May you walk like a man

[Bridge]
                  Bm   G
I couldnt believe it
        D                A
And the tears came to my eyes
         Bm  G
It isnt easy
G
Standing on the other side
 
[Verse]
       D             Em
I said sit down son, we gotta talk
    A               D
Hey it's your life, your gonna do what you want
 Bm             Em
I wont say crawl before you walk ?
        G
Cause I heard my old man in my mind
He say
 
[Chorus]
      D               A
stand tall when you stumble
       Bm            G
Stay proud when your humble ?
    D            A                   G        D
The lessons you learned, wont be the ones you plan
      Bm           D
Every step up that mountain
        G               Bm
Will be more than whats counting ?
             Em               Bm
But when you walk through the valley
        G           D
May you walk like a man
             Em        D
And when you go on without me
G           D   A  Bm  G
Walk Like a man.....Oooooooo...
D   A   Bm  G
       Walk On...
D   A   Bm  G
