B
Looking back
F#
He sees it all
G#m F# E
It was her first date the night he came to call
B
Her dad said son
F#
Have her home on time
G#m F# E
And promise me you'll never leave her side
C#m B E
He took her to a show in town
C#m B E
And he was ten feet off the ground
(Chorus)
B
He was walking her home
F#
And holding her hand
G# F# E
All the way she smiled it stole the breath right out of him
B
Down that old road
F#
With the stars up above
G# F# E
He remembers where he was the night he fell in love
B
He was walking her home
B
Ten more years and a waiting room
F#
At half past one
G# F# E
And the doctor said come in and meet your son
B
His knees went weak
F#
When he saw his wife
G# F# E
She was smiling as she said he's got your eyes
C#m B E
And as she slept he held her tight
C#m B E
His mind went back to that first night
(Chorus)
He walked her through the best days of her life
Sixty years together and he never left her side
A nursing home
At eighty-five
And the doctor said it could be her last night
And the nurse said Oh
Should we tell him now
Or should he wait until the morning to find out
When they checked her room that night
He was laying by her side
Oh he was walking her home
And holding her hand
Oh the way she smiled when he said this is not the end
And just for a while they were eighteen
And she was still more beautiful to him than anything
He was walking her home
He was walking her home
Looking back
He sees it all
It was her first date the night he came to call
