G G/B Cadd9
I remember lookin up, to look up to him,
G G/B Cadd9
And I remember most the time, he wasn't there,
Em7 D Cadd9
I'd be waiting at the door, when he got home at night,
C G D Dsus4
He's pass me by to go pass out in his chair, And I'd say,
(Chorus 1)
G Em7
Walk a little straighter daddy,
Cadd9 D
You're swayin side to side,
G Em7
Your footsteps make me dizzy,
Cadd9 D
And no matter how I'd try,
Am7 G/B
I keep trippin and stumblin,
Cadd9
If you'd look down here you'd see,
Am7 C D
Walk a little straighter daddy,
G|- G/B - Cadd9
You're leading me,
(Verse 2)
He stumbled in the gym, on graduation day,
And I couldn't help but feel, so ashamed,
And I wasn't suprised a bit, that he didn't stay.
He stumbled out before they called my name, And I thought,
(Chorus 2)
Walk a little straighter daddy,
You're swayin side to side,
It's not just me who's whachin,
You caught everybody's eye,
And you're trippin and stumblin,
And even though I've turned eighteen,
Walk a little straighter daddy,
You're still leading me
(bridge)
C
The old man still like he always was,
G/B
But I, love him anyway
Am7
If I've learned one thing from him it's my,
C D
Kids will never have to say,
(Chorus 1)
Walk a little straighter daddy,
You're swayin side to side,
Your footsteps make me dizzy,
And no matter how I'd try,
I keep trippin and stumblin,
If you'd look down here you'd see,
Walk a little straighter daddy,
You're leading me,
Walk a little straighter daddy,
You're leading me
