Verse:
F#m
The dining room fell silent
          E
I can't believe what I just said
       Bm
I just told my dad he's full of it
      C#7
And I watched his face turn red
             F#m
Well, then I should've said, "I'm sorry"
      D
But I matched him shout for shout
           Bm
I can still hear that screen door slammin'
    C#7              F#m
The night I called him out

Chorus:
          A                   E   Bm                  F#m
He said, "Son, it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you"

        Bm                 E                  C#7
But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts

           A             E             Bm                F#m
'Cause I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house

     Bm                   E         F#m
Each time they called the old man out

PLAY INTRO

Verse:
Fist to fist and eye to eye
Standin' toe to toe
He would've let me walk away
But I just would not let it go
Years of my frustration
Had lead me to this night
Now he'll pay for all the times that he's been right

Chorus:

Bridge:
F#m
It was over in a minute

       E
That's when I realized

Bm
The blood came from my mouth and nose

        C#7
But the tears came from my eyes

         F#m
And in a memory of that fateful night

  D
I know the greatest pain was his

              Bm             F#m
And I just pray some day I'm half the man he is

Chorus:

Just like my older brothers
crawled back in the house
