Trying to Be a Man Chords

Lyrics & chords

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