INTRO: G C D - 4x's

VERSE:
      G
Oh I got into a fist fight
   C                D
On my first day at school
      G
Oh I came home with a fat lip
       C                D
And a blackened eye to boot
        G
Oh it seems the local bully boy
         C              D
Well he didn't like me much
          G
When he knocked me down I got right up
    C                D
Oh what else could i do?


BREAK:
      Em
Qh I came home to my old man
       
Told me what I had to do
          Am
'Cause tomorrow that same bully boy
    C                 D
Be waiting there for you


CHORUS:
            G                            Em
Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D
I'm telling you son
       G                       Em
Oh believe what you feel, not what you heard
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D               
I'm telling you son


VERSE:
   G
I met a girl at 16
         C                 D
And she broke my heart in two
       G
Oh I learned to drink at 17
    C              D
Had my first woman too
        G
Oh the times they were a changing
        C             D
And my old town I outgrew 
        G
Had to see the world and live my own life
          C             D
So many things I had to do


BREAK:
        Em
Well I quit my job at the cannery
                  
I'd saved a buck or two
      Am
Oh I knew I'd miss old mom and dad
          C            D
But it's what I had to do


CHORUS:
            G                            Em
Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D
I'm telling you son
       G                       Em
Oh believe what you feel, not what you've heard
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D               
I'm telling you son


BREAK:
        Em
When I left home we were standing eye to eye
        Am                   D
And he gave me a hug and we said good bye
         Em
Ah take care he said 
       
You'll do all allright
         Am
Don't forget all I told you 
      D
I'm telling you son


VERSE:
    G            G/B
Pop was right and I made good
      C                   D
I've been all around the world
      G             G/B
Sometimes i think of my home town
 C               D
People I left behind
    G                 G/B
Oh maybe someday I'll settle down
     C             D
and meet a loving girl 
   G                G/B
Until then, I'll go wandering
 C                D
it's the life I choose


BREAK:
   Em
I carry in my heart the words he said

It seems like yesterday
    Am
My pops been gone now a couple years
        C               D
Still remember what he said


CHORUS:
            G                            Em
Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D
I'm telling you son
       G                      Em
Oh believe what you feel, not what you've heard
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D
I'm telling you son


CHORUS:
            G                            Em
Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D
I'm telling you son
       G                      Em
Oh believe what you feel, not what you've heard
      C
I'm telling you son 
      D

                 G
I'm telling you son
