Intro :                                   
 
 
   An only   child a  lone and wild, a   cabinet maker's   son
His   hands were meant for   different work
And his   heart was known to   none.   
   He left his   home and   went his lone and   solitary   way
And he g  ave to me a g  ift I know
I   never   can re  pay                                       
 
 
   A quiet   man of   music, de  nied a simpler   fate
He   tried to be a   soldier once
But his   music wouldn't   wait   
   He earned his   love through   discipline,
A   thund'ring velvet   hand
His   gentle means of   sculpting souls
Took me   years to   unders  tand          
 
 
[Refrain :]
   The leader of the   band is tired
And his   eyes are growing   old          
But his   blood runs through my   instrument
And his   song is in my   soul   
   My life has been a   poor attempt
To    imitate  the      man          
   I'm just a living    legacy
To the   lea--der   of-- the   band
 
 
(                 )
 
 
   My brothers'li  ves were dif  ferent
For they   heard another   call
   One went to Ch  icago, and the   other to St.   Paul  
   And I'm in   Colo  rado when I'm   not in some ho  tel
   Living out this   life I chose
And   come to   know so   well          
 
 
Instrumental :                                   
 
 
   I thank you   for the   music
And your   stories of the   road
I   thank you for the   freedom
When it   came my time to   go     
   I thank you   for the   kindness
And the   times when you got   tough
And   papa I don't   think I said
"I   love you"   near e  nough.          
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
          I am   the living leg  acy
To the   leader   of t  he ba  nd                                        
 
 
Finale :
