Lyrics

I re (Ab)mem ber look in’ up

to look up (Dbsus2)a at him.

And I re (Ab)mem ber most the time he was n’t there.

I’d be (Fm)wait n’t ing at the door

when he got home at night.

He’d (Bbm7)pass me by to go (Ab)pass out in his chair.

And say say Walk a lit tle (Fm)straight er, Dad dy, you’re sway in’ side to (Eb)side.

Your foot steps make me (Fm)diz zy and no (Db)mat ter how I try,

I keep (Bbm)trip pin’ and (Ab)stum blin’.

If you’d look (Db)though down here, you’d see.

Walk a lit tle (Bbm)straight er, Dad dy,

you’re you’re lead ing me.

He (Ab)stum bled in the gym

on grad u (Dbsus2)a tion day.

And I re (Ab)could n’t help but feel he so a shamed.

And I (Fm)was n’t sur prised a bit

when when he did n’t stay.

He (Bbm7)stum bled out to be (Ab)fore they called my name.

And I thought: Walk a lit tle (Fm)straight er, Dad dy, you’re sway in’ side to (Eb)side.

It’s not just me who’s (Fm)watch ing, you caught (Db)ev ’ry bod y’s eye.

And you’re (Bbm)trip pin’ and (Ab)stum blin’.

And e ven (Db)though I’ve turned eight een,
