'Seeing My Father In Me'  -   Paul Overstreet

 C
Last night we brought the children by to  visit their  grandpa
              F                       G                   C
And  it's plain to see their truly a part of him

While we were there their  grandma took out some old  photographs
              F                           G             C
Man he  sure looked a lot like me back  then

CHORUS:
                      F           G
I'm seeing my father  in  me
                     C                    Am
I  guess that's how it's meant to  be
         F                                                     G
And  I find I'm more and more like him each  day
              F                       G
I  notice I walk the way he  walks
              C                      Am
I  notice I talk the way he  talks
                     F            G         C
I'm starting to see my father in  me

And I'm happy to see my father in my


And today I took my  wife for a walk down that old dirt road

Where my daddy took my mom so  many times 

And we found the time to mention things we never had  before

And we shared some thoughts about the family life


Yeah  CHORUS

                F                                       C
And  now looking back I can recall the times we  disagreed
         F                                                C
When  I could not take hold of his old fashion  ways
              F                                                  C
And  the more I tried to prove him wrong the more I proved him right  
               Dm                        F                       G                             G
And  now I know why he still stood by me when I went through that  stage

CHORUS
