Tom : B
E B Abm E F# B
[Verse 1]
B
I was lucky as a child
E B
Mama taught us right from wrong
Abm E F#
And how Jesus loves us all
B
Though they barely did get by
E B
I never saw them cry
Abm
They said when things get rough
E F#
You gotta pick yourself up
B
Now, the years have taken me
E B
Down a twisted crazy street
Abm
At times I've drifted off
E F#
The path that I should walk
[Chorus]
E B
Jesus helped me through some hard times
E B
My wife and children by my side
E B
I'm not perfect by a long mile
C#m F#
No matter how I try
E B
But I've been blessed enough in my life
E B
To make up for any strife
[Próxima Parte]
[Refrão]
E B
If you look closely deep in my eyes
Abm E
You might see a few happy tears
F# B
From a man who never cries
[Verse 2]
B
It's hard to let my feelings show
E B
The ones I love don't always know
Abm
Like I'm leadin' my horse blind
E F#
To a place that I can't find
B
But I know I can't complain
E B
I've seen more sun than I have rain
B Abm
When I look at where I've come
E F#
Who I am and what I've done, oh I know
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Instrumental]
B E B Abm E F#
[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
B
From a man who never cries
E F# B
From a man who never cries
