Leader Of The Band Tab uke di Dan Fogelberg

G          C       G         
An only child, alone and wild
Bm              C
A cabinet maker son.
Am                       Em    
His hands were meant for different work, 
        Am                   C  D   
and his heart was known to none.
G            C        G                 Bm        C
He left his home and went his lone and solitary way.
Am                  Em            D7         G    C  G
And he gave to me a gift I know I never can repay.
C                  Bm                 C               G
The leader of the band is tired, his eyes are growing old.
        Am                    Em                         
But his blood runs through my instrument 
        Am             F
and his song is in my soul.
C                  Bm               C          G
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man.
     Am           Em            Am            G  
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band.
