Am
He was 18 years of age, born to a dirt poor family
C
In the middle of the Texas plains, no matter how hard he tried
Am
He couldn't seem to please the young man staring back from the broken mirror
C G Am
So he packed his bags one night to go out and make it on his own
Am
As he traveled down that dusty drive, he took a glance in the rearview mirror
C
He saw the shadow standing there
Am
And watched his father wave
C G
As if he seemed to say good luck son in everything you do
Am
We hope to see you soon
Chorus
F G
I don't know where I'm going in my life
C C/B Am
But I've got to find my way in this world
F G
I've done all that I can do here
C C/B Am
There's so much left for me to do
F G C C/B Am
I don't really know if I'm doing the right
F G
I'm gonna make a man out of myself if it kills me
Am
You gotta make your dreams come true
Am
He pulled into the city bright lights all around
C
Cars flying by his old beat up truck
Am
Yeah he's doubting himself a little but he knows he can't turn back
C G Am
For the man he used to be is already gone there's nothing left for him back home
Am
So he got a cheap apartment, spent his nights making cocktails
C
At a local bar that was just right up the street
Am
It was 3 o'clock in the morning all the wanted was the tips he made that night
C G Am
But the country boy refused much to their surprise, they left him laying there in the street
Chorus
F G
I don't know where I'm going in my life
C C/B Am
But I've got to find my way in this world
F G
I've done all that I can do here
C C/B Am
There's so much left for me to do
F G C C/B Am
I don't really know if I'm doing the right thing
F G
I'm gonna make a man out of myself if it kills me
Am
You gotta make your dreams come true
Solo

Am
His parents got a knock at the door the very next afternoon
C
It was a young woman wearing a red t-shirt and jeans
Am
She said I'm your son's wife and this here's your grandson
C G Am Am
And here's a letter he never got around to mailing you, I just thought you both should know
(And that letter said)
Chorus
F G
I finally know where my life's headed to
C C/B Am
And I've finally found my place in this world
F G
I've done all that I know to do
C C/B Am
And I owe it all to what you put me through
F G C C/B Am
I just got married and I've got a son
F G
Dad I named him after you
Am
And I've made all my dreams come true
