Johnny Cash - Understand Your Man guitar chord

Understand Your Man

By Johnny Cash

C Am

Don’t call my name out your window, I’m leaving

F G

I won’t even turn my head

C Am

Don’t send your kin folks to give me no talkin’

D G

I’ll be gone like I said

C C7

You’d say the same old things that you’ve been saying all along

F

Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut ‘til I’m gone

C Am

Don’t give me that old familiar cryin’ cussin’ moan,

F G C Am

Understand your man (I’m tired of your badmouthin’)

F G C

Understand your man.

You can give my other suits to the Salvation Army

And everything else I leave behind.

I ain’t takin’ nothing that’ll slow down my travelin’

While I’m untanglin’ my mind.

I ain’t gonna repeat what I said anymore

While I’m breathin’ air that ain’t been breathed before

I’ll be as gone as a wild goose in winter

Then you’ll understand your man (meditate on it)

Understand your man (you hear me talkin’)

Understand your man (remember what I told ya)
