Aaron Tippin - Got To Stand For Something
CAPO: 4th Fret
[INTRO]
C F C G C
G C
Now daddy didn't like trouble, but if it came along
F C G
Every one that knew him, knew which side that he would be on
F C F C
He never was a hero, or this county's shining light
Dm F G C
But you could always find him standing up for what he thought was right
[CHORUS]
C F C
He'd say, "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G
You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
F C F C
Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name
Dm Dm/E F F/A G C
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G C
We might have been better off or owned a bigger house
F C G
If daddy had done more, given in, or a little more backing down
F C F C
But we always had plenty, just living his advice
Dm F G C
Whatever you do today, you'll have to sleep with tonight
[CHORUS]
C F C
He'd say, "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G
You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
F C F C
Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name
Dm Dm/E F F/A G C
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
[BRIDGE]
F C F C
I know that things are different than they were in daddy's day
F C F G
But I still believe what makes a man really hasn't changed
[CHORUS]
C F C
He'd say, "You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G
You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
F C F C
Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name
Dm Dm/E F F/A G C
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
