C#I was told to G#be a man was F#build defences C#strong F#Keep your woman C#in her place and F#she’ll keep hanginG#’ on Now I’ve growF#n to realise mFmy life’s been filled wF#ith lies C#A tread I’ve beeF#n hangin’ on D#mhas broken in G#her eyes If I could let my F#heart be known in Fmspite walls so F#high C#I might taste those F#bitter tears that I’vD#me never learned G#to cry
Chorus #1:
But I’ve got F#a pG#a-ast like Bbma mask F#And I can see it C#in her face, F#the many years I C#can’t erase F#A broken heart I C#can’t replace iF#n spite of what G#I try But I’ve got F#a pG#a-ast like Bbma mask And F#I sure took my G#time to underC#stand
When I was young, not long ago, I hid my feelings well Sometimes I let my heartaches show but I could never tell And now I find I’ve been blind, insensitive and vain Cause someone told me long ago “ignore a woman’s pain” If I could change the fool I’ve been, I know just what’d do I’d give her everything I can and make all her dreams come true Chorus #2: But I’ve got a past like a mask And I can see it in her eyes, the lonely nights, the endless lies The countless time I made her cry when she was by my side And I’ve got a past like a mask And I sure took my time to understand Chorus #1 by: José Duarte jtduarte1@gmail.com
