Im Gonna Try To Be That Way Chords

(ver. 1)
Johnny Cash
[Verse]

E                B7            E    
Once upon a time there lived a man  Hmm Hmm
A                           E
Many years ago in a foreign land
   A                       E
He knew how to live right, tried to be a light
                 B7      E
Gave everybody a helping hand


[Chorus]

  E              B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way Hmm Hmm
 E               B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way
   A                         E
Do the kind of things Lord a man oughta do
A                        E
Say the kind of things a man oughta say
E                B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way


[Verse]

   E             B7    E
He never done anybody wrong
   A                        E
He tried to help everybody 'long
   A                        E
He brought a better land to make a better man

Out of the rich or the poor
                   E
Or the weak or the strong

E                        B7        E
And he preached love and brotherhood
   A                             E
He went around doin' good, doin' good
A                  E
Everywhere he went they knew that he was sent
                              B7          E
And the people started actin' like they should


[Chorus]

  E              B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way Hmm Hmm
 E               B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way
   A                         E
Do the kind of things Lord a man oughta do
A                        E
Say the kind of things a man oughta say
E                B7      E
I'm gonna try to be that way
