Em C D Eriff
Shut off the t.v and peel off those sunday gloves,
Am Em D Eriff
And I'll stain the clean that you've been counting,
Em C D Griff
Old Mr. Fletcher passed by here today,
Am Em D Eriff
After 40 years of toil he just up and walked away,
Em C D Eriff
Fantastic the panic that showed in his eyes,
Am Em D Eriff
He shrugged when I asked him about it,
Em C D Griff
He said "young man pay heed, you listen well to what I say,
Am Em D Em
Now there comes a time for a man to walk away",
D Em
Walk away, I'll be a parade,
C B5
And I'll be determined that no one shall
Em C
Dissuade on my way,
D G C B5
I'll sure take some time to burn all the bridges
Eriff
That I'm leaving behind,
Em C D Eriff
He passed by again and he was shivering from the cold,
Am Em D Eriff
I'm not sure but I think that he was trying,
Em C D Griff
He told me about the weather and something old to pay,
Am Em D Em
"But tomorrow, " he said, "I'm gonna surely walk away"
D Em
Walk away, I'll be a parade,
C B5
And I'll be determined that no one shall
E C
Dissuade on my way,
D G C B5
I'll take my sweet time and burn all the bridges
Eriff
That I'm leaving behind,
