Am Em It's a pity it's a crying shame Am Em Who pulled you down again Am Em How painful it must be Am Em D To bruise so easily inside Am Em It's a pity it's a downright crime Am Em It happens all the time Am Em You want to stay little daddy's girl Am Em D G7 You want to hide from the vicious world outside C G Don't cry Am Em You know the tears will do no good F G So dry your eyes Am Em Oh, your daddy he's the iron man Am Em A battleship wrecked on dry land Am Em Your mamma she's a bitter bride Am Em D She'll never be satisfied you know G G7 And that's not right C G But don't cry Am Em You know the tears will do no good F G So dry your eyes C G Oh, they told you life is hard Am Em Misery from the start F C D G7 It's dull it's slow it's painful C G But, I tell you life is sweet Am Em In spite of the misery F C D There's so much more be grateful F C D Well, who do you believe? F C D Who will you listen to who will it be? F C D Because it's high time that you decide G In your own mind Am Em I've tried to comfort you Am Em D I've tried to tell you to be patient D7 That they are blind and they can't see Am Em Fortune gonna come one day Am Em They're all gonna fade away Am Em Your daddy the war machine Am Em D And your momma the long and suffering G C Prisoner of what she can not see
