Now daddy didn't like trouble, but if it came along,  
G5              D5                   D5  
every one that knew him knew which side that he would  
   A5      G5           D5             G5  
be on. He never was a hero, or this county's shining  
D5                    E5              G5  
light, But you could always find him standing up for  
A5                   D5  
what he thought was right.    
                D5  
He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll  
G5            D5            D5  
fall for anything. You've got to be your own man not a  
            A5             G5                 D5  
puppet on a string. Never compromise what's right and  
G5                  D5            E5     E5  
uphold your family name. You've got to stand for  
G5        G5        A5            D5  
something or you'll fall for anything.   

Verse 2  

We might of been better off or owned a bigger house,  

if daddy had done more given in or a little more  

backing down. But we always had plenty just living his  

advice. What ever you do today you'll have to sleep  

with tonight.

BRIDGE  
  G5                    D5                   G5  
I know that things are different than they were in  
        D5          G5                  G5  
daddy's day, but I still believe what makes a man  
G5             A5  
really hasn't changed.  
 
Repeat Chorus
