Tough Little Boys Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Well[F#m][Bm][A][G][Em][Asus4]
[D]I n[G]eve[D]r once
Backed down from a punch
Well I'd take it square on [G]the chin
[Gm]Well I found out fast
A [D]bully's [A]just [Bm]that
[Em]You've got [G]to stand up [Asus4]to him[A]
So [D]I didn't cry when I got a black eye
As bad as it hurt, I just [G]grinned
But when [Gm]tough little boys
grow [D]up [A]to be dad[Bm]s
[A]They turn [Em]into big ba[A]bies [D]again.
[A]Scared

[Verse 2]
[Bm]me to death
When you [G]took your first steps
And I'd [D]fall every [A]time you fell [D]down
[A]Your fir[Bm]st day of school, I c[G]ried like a foo[D]l
And I [Em]followed your school
bus [Asus4]to town[D][A]
Well [D]I didn't cry,
when Old [A]Yeller [D]died
At least not in front of my [G]friends
But when [Gm]tough little boys
grow [D]up [A]to be dad[Bm]s
[A]They [Em]turn into big ba[A]bies again

[Interlude 1]
[G][D]
[F#m][Bm][A][G][Em][A][D][G]

[Verse 3]
[D]Well I'm a grown man
And as strong as I am
Sometimes its hard to be[G]lieve
That [Gm]one little girl, with l[D]ittle [A]blonde c[Bm]urls
Could [Em]totally terrify [A]me[Asus4][A]
If [D]you were to ask
My wife would just laugh
She'd say "I know all about [G]men
How when [Gm]tough little boys
grow [D]up [A]to be dad[Bm]s
[A]They turn [Em]into big ba[A]bies [D]again"
[A]Well

[Verse 4]
[Bm]I know one day,
I'll [G]give you away
And [D]I'm gonna stand
[A]there and[D] smile[A]
And [Bm]when I get home,
[G]and I'm all a[D]lone
Well, I'll [Em]sit in your room
for a [Asus4]while[A]
Well [D]I didn't cry when Old Y[A]eller died
At [D]least not in front of my [G]friends
But when [Gm]tough little boys
grow [D]up to be dad[Bm]s
[A]They [Em]turn into big ba[A]bies [D]again
When [G]tough little boys grow [D]up [A]to be dads
[Bm]They[Abdim] turn into big[Em] babies agai[A]n.
