Intro: Hold C
Verse 1 (G/B, Am, F, C)
You try your hardest to leave the past alone.
This crooked posture is all you've ever known.
Chorus: (Am, G, F)
You are so much more than your fathers son.
You are so much more than what Ive become.
Verse 2 (G/B, Am, F, C)
Long before you were born there was light
Hidden deep in these young, unfamiliar eyes.
Chorus: (Am, G, F)
You are so much more than your fathers son.
You are so much more than what Ive become,
Am G/B
You pressed rewind
C
For the thousandth time
F
When the tapes wore through.
Am G/B
So you memorized
C
Those unscripted lines,
F
Desperate for some kind of clue:
Am G/B
When the scale tipped,
C
When you inherited
F
A fight that you were born to lose.
Am G/B
Its not your fault,
C
No, its not your fault,
F
I put this heavy heart in you.
C/E F
I put this heavy heart in you.
Hold C
Verse 3: (G/B, Am, F, C)
You remind me of who I could have been,
Had I been stronger and braver way back then.
End Chorus: (Am, G, F)
You are so much more than your fathers son.
You are so much more than the wars youve won.
