Chet Atkins - Tears lyrics

rate me

When I was young, my Dad would say

Come on Son let's go out and play

Sometimes it seems like yesterday

And I'd climb up the closet shelf

When I was all by my-self

Grab his hat and fix the brim

Pretending I was him

No matter how hard I try

No matter how many tears I cry

No matter how many years go by

I still can't say good-bye

He always took care of Mom and me.

We all cut down a Christmas tree

He always had some time for me

Wind blows through the trees

Street lights, they still shine bright

Most things are the same

but I miss my Dad to-night

I walked by a Salvation Army store Saw a hat like my

daddy wore

Tried it on when I walked in

Still trying to be like him

No matter how hard I try

No matter how many years go by

No matter how many tears I cry

I still can't say good-bye
