[Verse 1]
B
I was lucky as a child
E                         B
Mama taught us right from wrong
                       Abm E F#
And how Jesus loves us all
B
Though they barely did get by
E                B
I never saw them cry
                          Abm
They said when things get rough
                        E F#
You gotta pick yourself up
B
Now, the years have taken me
E                    B
Down a twisted crazy street
                      Abm
At times I've drifted off
                       E   F#
The path that I should walk


[Chorus]
E                            B
Jesus helped me through some hard times
E                          B
My wife and children by my side
E                    B
I'm not perfect by a long mile
C#m             F#
No matter how I try
E                               B
But I've been blessed enough in my life
E                  B
To make up for any strife
E                           B
If you look closely deep in my eyes
 Abm                E
You might see a few happy tears
F#                   B
From a man who never cries


[Verse 2]
B
It's hard to let my feelings show
E                            B
The ones I love don't always know
                          Abm
Like I'm leadin' my horse blind
                        E  F#
To a place that I can't find
B
But I know I can't complain
E                              B
I've seen more sun than I have rain
B                         Abm
When I look at where I've come
                       E            F#
Who I am and what I've done, oh I know


[Chorus]
E                            B
Jesus helped me through some hard times
E                          B
My wife and children by my side
E                    B
I'm not perfect by a long mile
C#m             F#
No matter how I try
E                               B
But I've been blessed enough in my life
E                  B
To make up for any strife
E                           B
If you look closely deep in my eyes
 Abm                E
You might see a few happy tears
F#                   B
From a man who never cries
