WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Garth Brooks - The Night I Called The Old Man Out Chords | Ver. 1
Em D
The dining room fell silent, I can't believe what I just said,
A B7
I just told my dad he's full of it, and I watched his face turn red.
Em D
And I should've said, "I'm sorry", but I matched him shout for shout,
A B7 Em
I can still hear that screen door slammin', the night I called him out.
Chorus:
G D Am Em
He said, "Son it's gonna hurt me, more than it hurts you"
C D B7
but somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts.
G D Am Em
Coz I'd seen my own dear brothers, crawl back in the house,
C D Em
each time they called the old man out.
Em D
Fist to fist and eye to eye, standin' toe to toe,
A B7
He would've let me walk away, but I just would not let it go.
Em D
Years of my frustration, had led me to this night,
A B7 Em
Now he'll pay for all the times that he's been right.
Chorus:
G D Am Em
He said, "Son it's gonna hurt me, more than it hurts you"
C D B7
but somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts.
G D Am Em
Coz I'd seen my own dear brothers, crawl back in the house,
C D Em
each time they called the old man out.
Em D
It was over in a minute, that's when I realised
A B7
The blood came from my mouth and nose, but the tears came from his eyes
Em D
And in memory of that faithful night I know the greatest pain was his
A B7 Em
And I just pray someday I'm half the man he is.
Chorus:
G D Am Em
He said, "Son it's gonna hurt me, more than it hurts you"
C D B7
but somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts.
G D Am Em
Coz I'd seen my own dear brothers, crawl back in the house,
C D Em
each time they called the old man out.
G D Am Em
Just like my own dear brothers, I crawled back in the house
C D Em
The night I called the old man out.
