"That's A Man"
Album TBD, 2008
I put an uncapoed version of the song underneath for you purists.
Capo III
D A
Saw a story on the local news last night
G
About one more struggling single mother
D A
She was talking about how hard it is getting by
G
With no help, no money, no nothing from the baby's father
D A
Made me think about this guy I know with a wife and a child
G
Who's working two jobs just to get by
D A
Yeah, he says he'd do anything he could in this world
G
Just to give his young family a better life
A
Yeah, a better life
D G A
Ooooh, that's a man
D G A
That's a 19-year-old, modern-day hero man
D A
Those two young Marines over there fighting for their country
G
Man, they're gonna be friends forever
D
They've both come back eventually
A
But as bonds and destiny would have it
G
They don't come back together
D
Yeah, the one who lived to tell about
A
Why he can't even talk about it
G
Keeps fighting that fight up there in his head
D A
Ain't a day goes by he don't wonder why
G
Why it wasn't me instead
A
It could've been me instead
D G A
Ooooh, that's a man
D
That's a you don't know how hard he tried
G A
To save his buddy's life man
Bm G
I don't know about you
D A
Sometimes, I just need a little reminder
G A
And reach down and find some understanding
D
Find some kind of kindness
D G A
D
D A
Read about a man who said his family
G
Had been farming the same land in Ohio for 100 years
D A
Felt like he'd paid for it ten times over
G
With his own blood, his own sweat, and his own tears
D A
If he had to, he'd be out there on that tractor working
G
Seven long, hot days a week
D A
Yeah, he's the kind of feller that people get real quiet
G
When he stands up in church to speak
A
They know when he speaks
D G A
Ooooh, that's a man
D
That's a stand tall, walk straight
G A
Put God's share in the collection plate man
D G A
Ooooh, that's a man
D G A
Ooooh, that's a man
