[G]I stood up for the first

And [G]ever since that day mama [Em]said
I never done what [G]I was t[Em]old
I nev[G]er stood for nothing too [Em]much
all through my school[G]ing [Em]years
[C]But I stood as much as I could stand

stand[G]ing here

And [C]then I [D]stood up when [Em]love

was [Bm]all in v[G]ain [C]baby
I got [D]stood up once and [Em]left out
in [Bm]the pouring [G]rain [C]baby
And then I [G]stood up [C]and I'll do
it again

Guess [G]I never understood what she could
[Em]do with all that flaming red h[G]air[Em]
[G]I could not stand the heat in the kit[Em]chen
so Jack I got [G]on out [Em]of there
I stood [G]up to get a pack [Em]of cigarettes
down at the corner [G]store[Em]
[C]And now she's standing in some corner
of my [D]heart behind the kitchen

[G]They gave last call for alcohol and no
[Em]one has to carry me [G]home[Em]
