Scott Miller Daddy Raised a Boy tabbed by infinitelazerdog Standard Tuning Intro: A, E, A, F#m, D, E, A A E A My old man could be your dad's old man F#m D E A He lied about his age to fight japan E A Wasn't long before he came back home F#m D E A He had some help from the atom bomb Back in Allentown where my dad worked They drank a cold one 'fore they changed their shirts And every drunken word was his command The standing order was to understand F#m D And he don't care about nothing else A E A Only what he's got to tell himself A E A Everybody does the best they can F#m D E A But my daddy raised a boy and not a man I was young and hungry when I left home Hungry just for something to be hungry for I had to prove that I could make my way No matter who it hurt or price I paid I didn't care about nothing else Only what I had to tell myself As looking back I start to understand My daddy raised a boy and not a man And then I woke up and I Realized one day I ain't got nothing Cause that's what I gave Now when I look into my father's eyes We both see someone we can recognize He sees a young man who has lost his way I look at him, I swear I see the same I don't care about nothing else Only what I've got to tell myself Everybody does the best they can My daddy raised a boy and not a man
