Trying to Be a Man Will Hoge
Verse 1:
[G]One night I fell in [C]love with a little [G]girl
And I [C]gave her [D]my whole [G]world
[G]And I knew right then I'd [C]never get it [G]back
And I [C]wondered how I [D]fell for [G]that
Verse 2:
[G]Five months later with [C]tears in both her [G]eyes
She [C]handed me those [D]two pink [G]lines
[G]The only test in my [C]whole life I didn't [G]fail
I [C]told her we'd be [D]fine, but I was scared as [G]hell
Chorus:
[C]Ooohhh, my [G]love, I [C]hope it doesn't [G]show
[C]But I'm [G]scared to [C]death of [G]drowning
[C]In these [G]things that [C]I don't [G]know
[C]Ooohhh, my [G]love, I [C]hope you'll under[G]stand
The [C]truth is I'm a [G]boy, who's [D]tryin to be a man
Verse 3:
[G]I got a hand me down gold [C]ring to make it [G]right
And I could [C]feel you kick when the [D]judge said "Kiss the [G]bride"
[G]But your momma and me we walked [C]out hand in [G]hand
Soon, [C]three against the [D]world, we'd make a [G]stand
Verse 4:
[G]But on the day that you were [C]born she got called [G]home
And it's the [C]darkest thing my [D]heart has ever [G]known
[G]The doctor said "I'm sorry"[C] And handed you to [G]me
I [C]looked in your blue [D]eyes and couldn't even [G]speak
Chorus:
[G]To tell you "[C]Oh, my [G]son, I [C]hope it doesn't [G]show,
[C]But I'm [G]scared to [C]death of [G]drowning
[C]In these [G]things that [C]I don't [G]know.
[C]Whoa, my [G]son, I [C]hope you'll under[G]stand
The [C]truth is I'm a [G]boy, just [D]tryin to be a man.
Oh your [C]daddy's just a [G]boy, who's [D]trying to be a [G]man...
