D                             A 
How he got that GI Joe in the church this morning I don?t know but 
G                                           Em             A 
He ain?t listening to the preacher like his momma told him to 
D                                     A 
She?s wanting me to cross the isle go sit over there with him awhile 
         G                                    Em             A 
Make him turn around and sit up straight stop playing in the pew 
   G                           A 
To watch him is all that I can do? 
                D 
Cause I look at him and I see a boy 
          A 
And I see trouble and I see joy 
      G 
I see innocence and headstrong 
      A 
And a heart full of dreams 
              D 
And I look at him and I?m so amazed 
       A 
I?m so proud and then so afraid 
         G                                           A 
That the apple didn?t fall quite far enough from the tree 
               G       A     D 
Yeah I look at him and I see me.  
D                                  A 
Already says when he grows up he?s gonna have a big ole truck 
    G                                   Em            A 
And I can see him getting stuck on some private property 
D 
He?ll take chances he?ll take dares and  
A                               G 
Keep his momma and me scared to death  
                                   Em               A 
When he goes out at night and oh I bet we?ll never sleep  
  G                                A 
I guess I get what my dad got from me? 
                D 
Cause I look at him and I see a teen 
       A 
Having fun, doing stupid things 
      G 
I see road blocks I see mistakes 
      A 
I see heart break he can?t see  
          D 
I look at him and I?m so amazed 
       A 
I?m so proud and then so afraid 
         G                                           A 
That the apple didn?t fall quite far enough from the tree 
        G       A     D 
Oh I look at him and I see me. 
 
(bridge) 
          Bm               A 
I look at him and I see me breaking down one day 
      G                          A 
As he packs up all his things to move away?

          D 
I look at him and I?m so amazed 
       A 
I?m so proud and then so afraid 
         G                                           A 
That the apple didn?t fall quite far enough from the tree 
        G       A     D 
Oh I look at him and I see me.
