Title:  Tough Little Boys
Artist:  Gary Allen


D D G A D

D             D
I never once, backed down from a punch
D                              G
Well I'd take it square on the chin
G                    D/F#        Em7
I found out fast, a bully's just that
G                         A
You've got to stand up to him


D                D
So I didn't cry, when I got a black eye
D                           G
As bad as it hurt, I just grinned
G                                D/F#     Em7
But when tough little boys, grow up to be dads
          G        A       D
They turn into big babies again


Bm                  Bm
Scared me to death, when you took your first steps
          G          D/F#          A
Well I'd fall every time you fell down
Bm                              Bm
And Your first day of school, I cried like a fool
      G              D/F#           A
And I followed your school bus to town


D              D
I didn't cry, when ol' yeller died
D                           G
At least not in front of my friends
         G                       D/F#     Em7
But when tough little boys, grow up to be dads
          G        A       D
They turn into big babies again


D D G A D


D                D
I'm a grown man, but as strong as I am
D                          G
Well sometimes its hard to believe
G                           D/F#        Em7
How one little girl, with little blonde curls
     G              A 
Can totally terrify me


D                   D
If you were to ask, my wife would just laugh
D                           G
She'd say "I know all about men"
G                            D/F#        Em7
And how tough little boys, grow up to be dads
          G        A       D
They turn into big babies again



Bm                   Bm
Well I know one day, I'll give you away
     G            D/F#            A
And I'm gonna stand there and smile
Bm               Bm
When I get home, and I'm all alone
     G           D/F#       A
I'll sit in your room for a while


D              D
I didn't cry, when ol' yeller died
D                           G
At least not in front of my friends
G                                D/F#     Em7
But when tough little boys, grow up to be dads
          G        A       D
They turn into big babies again


G                                D/F#     Em7
But when tough little boys, grow up to be dads
NC        G        A       D
They turn into big babies again
