WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Montgomery Gentry - Didn't I Chords | Ver. 2
"(2)
This is my take on a great tune honoring my fellow combat vets ...
I will try to add the solo work sometime,
but I usually do those from memory with my own twists on them =)
Didn’t I
verse 1
F G C
Didn't I make you proud, go and lay my life down, when you called my name.
F G C
I thought I stood for something, was doin' the right thing when I went away.
F
Now being back should be so simple,
C G
but I keep getting these mixed signals from everyone.
F
Why do folks sit and judge me,
C G
who ain't seen what I seen or did what I done.
Chorus
C F C
Didn't I burn, didn't I bleed, enough for you.
C F C
I faced, your fears, felt pain so you won't have to.
G F Eb
Yeah didn't I do my best; and wasn't home here when I left.
Verse
F G C
I've seen boys fall to pieces, grown men cry out for Jesus, till their black and blue.
F
I thought God was on our side,
G
weren't we supposed to be the good guys
C
that would never lose.
F
Cause I don't see no ticker tape
C G
or five mile parade saying, thank you son.
F
Just folks that sit and judge me,
C G
who ain't seen what I seen or did what I done.
Chorus
C F C
Didn't I burn, didn't I bleed, enough for you.
C F C
I faced, your fears, felt pain so you won't have to.
G F Eb
Yeah didn't I do my best; and wasn't home here when I left.
