Another Try Lyrics

Guitar Capo 3rd Fret
Intro : C Em7 Am7
Hey, Daddy just lost his pay
M9
What did he do it for
It never made it through our door
M9
He drank the whole week away
M7
And what can a family say
M7
There must be a better way
M7 M7
Now mama don't start to cry
Let's give him another try
Pick up the telephone
M9
Tell him you want him home
To sit and watch the evenings pass
M9
And readin' the Leaves of Grass
M7
I'm caught in a closing door
M7
It's pinning me to the floor
M7 M7
Now mama don't start to cry
Let's give him another try
M7
I'm caught in a closing door
M7
It's pinning me to the floor
M7 M7
Now mama don't start to cry
Let's give him another try
When we're old and gray
And the things we say
are the things we really mean
So why cause a scene
When things ain't what they seem
'Cause the end result's the same
M7
Now what can a family say
M7
There must be a better way
M7 M7
Now mama don't start to cry
Let's give him another try
