Different Strings

[Intro ]
A   D 


[Verso 1]
 
D                 A       D          G 
  Daddy raised me just outside of Memphis 
D        G             D        Em 
  Second generation doctor with hopes to pass it down 
A       D                  A 
  I saw grown men weep and bombers cry 
                    G         D 
When his fine tuned hands and knowing eyes 
G                   D        Em                A 
Gave a man more life, but he would have been allowed 
G                          D           G 
  He dreamt I'd be the one to wear his coat 
D            Em       D      Em      A 
  But tuning keys and guitar strings paved a different road 
 


[Refrão]
 
G      D    A  G         D                G   D  Em  A 
Well I hope he knows I'm still my fathers son 
      D    A    G                D           G    D  Em  A 
And I hope he's proud of the man I've have become 
G                D                    G     Em 
  I found my own way through diffenet means 
              A                    D 
Sewing up the heart with different strings 
 


[Verso 2]
 
D                                 G     D 
Something about this guitar in my hands 
    G               D     Em                 A 
The day I picked it up, I began to understand 
                 D 
The first time I sang a song I wrote 
D 
To a crowded room through a cloud of smoke 
G              D            Em                  A 
Teary eyes and broken souls hooked on every note 
G                          D                G 
  I might have chosen this darkened room to shine 
D         Em                      A 
  But you have your way of healing   and I have mine 
 


[Refrão]
 
       D    A   G        D                G   D  A  Em  A 
Well I hope you know I'm still my fathers son 
      D    A    G                A            G  D  Em  A 
And I hope your proud of the man I have become 
G                                          D 
  Can't you see we're doing the same thing 
Em            A                    D       A  G  D  G  D  Em  A 
Sewing up the heart with different strings 
 


[Refrão]
 
       D    A   G        D                G   D  A  Em  A 
Well I hope you know I'm still my fathers son 
      D    A    G            D            G   D  Em  A 
And I hope your proud of the man I have become 
G                      D                    G 
   Now we're both here doing the same damn thing 
              A                        D 
Sewing up the heart with different strings
