(Capo 1st fret)


INtro - E - A = 4x's


(verse 1)
E                             A
Little boy walks in with a bloody 
nose,
E              A              
Got beat up on his way home from 
     E      D   A
school, aga-in,
E                         A
His dad caught him running out the 
back,
E                         A      
Tears in his eyes and a baseball 
   E  A      E
bat,  oo revenge,

C#m                           
Said son I won't stop ya, but 
Bsus       B
before you go,
        A                          
Let me tell you a little story bout
                    Bsus B C#m
 the toughest man I know,



(chorus)
         A               B        
You hit him and he just turns the 
        E
other cheek,

        A           B           
Don't think for a minute he was 
C#m - B
weak,
      A          B
Cause in the end he showed them,
        E    B        A
He was any-thing but frail,
      C#m                   Bsus B
They hammered him to a cross,
                          E - A = 
2x's
But he was tougher than nails,




(verse 2)
          E                    
Well he droped that bat like it 
    A
weighed a ton,
E                      A         
Father put his arms around his 
       E   A            D   A
son and said, just let it go--oo,
E                    A
Believe me I've been in your shoes,
        E                      A  
Had to ask myself what would Jesus
  E   A             E
  do,   here's what I know,


(bridge)
C#m                      Bsus    
Whenever I'm in doubt, I look up 
         B
what he said,
      A                            
It's all there in the good book, in
 Bsus                B C#m
 black and white and red,

     A               B            
Hit him and he just turns the 
    E
other cheek,
        A           B           
Don't think for a minute he was 
C#m - B
weak,
      A          B
Cause in the end he showed them,
        E    B        A
He was any-thing but frail,
      C#m                   Bsus B
They hammered him to a cross,
                          E - A
But he was tougher than nails,
    A          B
Yea in the end he showed them,
        E    B        A
He was any-thing but frail,
      C#m                   Bsus B
They hammered him to a cross,
                          E - A - E
But he was tougher than nails,
 - A

              E - A - E - A       
Tougher than nails,       oh, oh, 
E
oh,
