[Verse 1] Like a boat on a river this bus is floating down this old highway Looking out the window I think about how I got here today Anyone who's anywhere had some help getting there its true And one of the reasons why I get to do the things I do [Chorus] I met this angel With callused hands Who led this boy to his band Under his wing I learned to fly On these 6 strings through this life You can hear them in my playing Although he's gone And I owe him so much more than just this song [Verse 2] Like a leaf that had fallen I was drifting down the stream
Mr. Guitar came into my life and let me live this dream His old gretch still speaking still speaking its teaching all of us a ton He was my friend and my hero all wrapped up in one [Chorus] I met this angel With callused hands Who lead this naive boy into his band Under his wing I learned to fly On his 6 strings into the night I can still hear him playing although he's gone And I owe him so much more than just this song [Outro] Every face we see from we every stage we roll With every note we play even though there gone They live on They live on
