[Verse 1]
AM7 F#m
Ikaw na ang may sabi
Bm7 E
Na ako'y mahal mo rin
AM7 F#m
At sinabi mong
Bm7 E
ang pag-ibig mo'y di-magbabago
[Chorus]
DM7 Dm7
Ngunit bakit sa tuwing ako'y lumalapit
AM7 A7 F#m
Ika'y lumalayo
DM7 Dm7 AM7
Puso'y laging nasasaktan pag may kasama
A7
Kang iba
Bm7 C#m7 Dm7
Di ba nila alam
Bm7 C#m7 Dm7
Tayo'y nag-sumpaan
DM7 Dm
Na Ako'y sa'yo at ika'y akin lamang
[Instrumental]
AM7 Bm7 C#m7 DM7 Dm7
[Refrain]
AM7 F#m
Kahit ano pa ang mangyari
Bm7 E
pag-ibig ko'y sa'yo pa rin
AM7 F#m
At kahit ano pa
Bm7 E
ang sabihin nila'y ikaw pa rin
DM7
Ang mahal
Dm7 AM7 A7
Maghihintay ako kahit kailan
DM7 Dm7
Kahit na umabot pang ako'y
AM7 A7
nasa Langit na
Bm7 C#m7 Dm7
At kung di ka nakita
Bm7 C#m7 Dm7
makikiusap kay Bathala
Bm7 Dm7
Na ika'y hanapin, at sabihin
AM7 F#m Bm7 C#m7 Dm7
Ipaalala sa iyo ang nakalimutang sumpaan
DM7 Dm7
Na ako'y sa'yo at ika'y akin lamang
[Adlib]
AM7 F#m Bm E
[Verse 2]
G C/G G Bm C
A quiet man of music, denied a simpler fate
Am Em Am C D
He tried to be a soldier once but his music wouldn't wait
G C/G G Bm C
He earned his love through discipline, a thund'ring velvet hand
Am Em Am D7 G
His gentle means of sculpting souls took me years to understand
[Chorus]
C Bm C G
The leader of the band is tired and his eyes are growing old
Am Em Am F D
But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my so-oul
C Bm C G
My life has been a poor attempt, to imitate the man
Am Em Am C G C/G G C/G G C/G G
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band
[Verse 3]
G C/G G Bm C
My brothers' lives were different for they heard another call
Am Em Am C D
One went to Chicago, and the other to St. Paul
G C/G G Bm C
And I'm in Colorado when I'm not in some hotel
Am Em Am D7 G C/G G
Living out this life I chose and come to know so well
[Verse 4]
G C/G G Bm C
I thank you for the music and your stories of the road
Am Em Am C D
I thank you for the freedom when it came my time to go
G C/G G Bm C
I thank you for the kindness and the times when you got tough
Am Em Am D7 G
And Papa, I don't think I said "I love you" near enough
[Chorus]
C Bm C G
The leader of the band is tired and his eyes are growing old
Am Em Am F D
But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my so-oul
C Bm C G
My life has been a poor attempt, to imitate the man
Am Em Am C G
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band
