You've got to stand for something

Aaron Tippin/Buddy Brock

Capo 2

Introduction

D G D D A D

D A D

Now daddy didn't like trouble, but if it came along,

G D D

every one that knew him knew which side that he would

A G D G

be on. He never was a hero, or this county's shining

D Em G

light, But you could always find him standing up for

A D

what he thought was right.

CHORUS

D

He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll

G D D

fall for anything. You've got to be your own man not a

A G D

puppet on a string. Never compromise what's right and

G D Em Em/F#

uphold your family name. You've got to stand for

G G/B A D

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.

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE

G D G

I know that things are different than they were in

D G G

daddy's day, but I still believe what makes a man

G A

really hasn't changed.

Repeat Chorus
