[Intro]
G F G F G C C
[Verse #1]
G F GWrestling arms in the back of bars ′til the eight-ball falls in the pocket
G F GLiving too large and racing cars passing cops on the two-lane highways
G F GHolding new hands and losing friends wasn't ever a part of the plan
G C G GWill an innocent boy ever understand what it takes to be a man?
G F GWas a young boy with a sailor tongue, if you catch him wrong, he could get violent
G F GHeard that the kid got his bell rung at the poker table last Friday
G F GBeing big blind with a bad hand wasn′t ever a part of the plan
G C GWill an innocent boy ever understand what it takes to be a man?
[Chorus]
F G'Cause someday you'll be hearing my name from the clouds
C GmYou′ll be able to hear it for miles and through the valleys in front of you
F GI′m just a man with a plan to make it out
C GmThat's living each day without feeling loved or cared about
FThey tell me to hold my heeeeaaaad up high
G CBut I′m getting real tired of hearing the saaammmeee
Gm CThing every single damn time
F GSo just wait, I'll be sitting alone in my house
C GmAnd I′ll be in here for a while until I come out a better man
[Chords]
F G C Gm
[Verse 2]
G F GNeon lights on the summer nights got us itching to raise a toast
G F GTo the lost life somewhere in the sky that ain't walking around no more
G F GThinking about how it would have been wasn′t ever a part of the plan
G C GWill an innocent boy ever understand what it takes to be a man?
G F GMeet a nice girl with the brightest smile that'll outshine the morning coast
G F GUsing all your might, trying to treat her right, just hoping she won't let you go
G F GThe Lord knows never talking again wasn′t ever a part of the plan
G C GWill an innocent boy ever understand what it takes to be a man?
[Chorus]
F G'Cause someday you'll be hearing my name from the clouds
C GmYou′ll be able to hear it for miles and through the valleys in front of you
F GI′m just a man with a plan to make it out
C GmThat's living each day without feeling loved or cared about
FThey tell me to hold my heeeeaaaad up high
G CBut I′m getting real tired of hearing the saaammmeee
Gm CThing every single damn time
F GSo just wait, I'll be sitting alone in my house
C GmAnd I′ll be in here for a while until I come out a better man

[Outro] - #Single strums here
FThey tell me to hold my heeeeaaaad up high
G CBut I′m getting real tired of hearing the saaammmeee
Gm CThing every single damn time
F GSo just wait, I'll be sitting alone in my house
C GmAnd I′ll be in here for a while until I come out a better man
