[Verse 2]
G A quiet C/Gman of Gmusic, deBmnied a simpler Cfate Am He tried to be a Emsoldier once but his Ammusic wouldn't Cwait D G He earned his C/Glove through Gdiscipline, a Bmthund'ring velvet Chand His Amgentle means of Emsculpting souls took me Amyears to D7underGstand
[Chorus]
C The leader of the Bmband is tired and his Ceyes are growing Gold But his Amblood runs through my Eminstrument and his Amsong is in my Fso-Doul C My life has been a Bmpoor attempt,C to imitate the Gman I'm Amjust a living Emlegacy to the Amleader Cof the GbandC/G G C/G G C/G G
