The Night I Called the Old Man Out Garth Brooks
The dining room [Em]fell silent, I can't believe what I just[D] said,
I just [A]told my dad he's full of it, and I w[B7]atched his face turn red.
And I s[Em]hould've said, "I'm sorry", but I m[D]atched him shout for shout,
I can still [A]hear that screen door slammin', the [B7]night I called him [Em]out.
Chorus:
He said, "[G]Son it's gonna h[D]urt me, [Am]more than it hurts [Em]you"
but someh[C]ow I couldn't [D]help but have my [B7]doubts.
Coz I'd s[G]een my own dear b[D]rothers, c[Am]rawl back in the [Em]house,
each t[C]ime they called the o[D]ld man [Em]out.
[Em]Fist to fist and eye to eye, [D]standin' toe to toe,
[A]He would've let me walk away, but I just [B7]would not let it go.
[Em]Years of my frustration, had [D]led me to this night,
Now he'll [A]pay for all the [B7]times that he's been [Em]right.
Chorus:
He said, "[G]Son it's gonna h[D]urt me, [Am]more than it hurts [Em]you"
but someh[C]ow I couldn't [D]help but have my [B7]doubts.
Coz I'd s[G]een my own dear b[D]rothers, c[Am]rawl back in the [Em]house,
each t[C]ime they called the o[D]ld man [Em]out.
It was [Em]over in a minute, that's [D]when I realised
The b[A]lood came from my mouth and nose, but the [B7]tears came from his eyes
And in [Em]memory of that faithful night I know the g[D]reatest pain was his
And I just [A]pray someday I'm [B7]half the man he [Em]is.
Chorus:
He said, "[G]Son it's gonna h[D]urt me, [Am]more than it hurts [Em]you"
but someh[C]ow I couldn't [D]help but have my [B7]doubts.
Coz I'd s[G]een my own dear b[D]rothers, c[Am]rawl back in the [Em]house,
each t[C]ime they called the o[D]ld man [Em]out.
Just [G]like my own dear br[D]others, I c[Am]rawled back in the [Em]house
The [C]night I called the [D]old man [Em]out.
