Intro. : C - F - C - F
Stanza I: 
CBmAmGF Like a boat on the river, this bus is floatin’ down this old highway
G7C Lookin out the window, I think about how I got here today
CBmAmGF Anyone who’s anywhere had some help gettin’ there it’s true
G7 And one of the reasons why I get to do the things I do
CAmFEmG I met this angel with callous hands who let this boy into his band
CAmFEmG Under his wing, I learned to fly on these six strings through this life
FCGG#mAmG You can hear him in my playin’ although he’s gone
FGCA And I owe him so much more just this song
DC#mBmAG Like a leaf that had fallen, I was driftin’ down the stream
A7D Mister guitar came into my life and let me build this dream
DC#mBmAG His old Gretch’s still speakin’, it’s teachin’ all of us a ton
He was my (A)friend and my hero all wrapped up in one Chorus II: 
DBmGF#mA I met this angel with callous hands who let this naïve boy into his band
DBmGF#mA Under his wing I learned to fly on these six strings into the light
GDABbmBmA I can still hear him playin’ although he’s gone
GADGDG And I owe him so much more than just this song
ABmGF#m Every fake we see from every take we roll
ABmGF#mA With every note we play even though they’re gone
BmAG They live on,
