A F#m


  (A)                        	   (F#m)		    (A)   (F#m)
I stood up for the first time when I was just eleven months old
  (A) 				(F#m)		       (A)    (F#m)
And ever since that day Mama said I never done what I was told
 (A) 			     (F#m)			  (A)   (F#m)
I never stood for nothing too much all through my schooling years
(D5)
But I stood as much as I could stand
 (E5) 					(A)   (F#m)
I guess that’s why I’m still standing here

Chorus
	   (E)           (F#m)	(C#m)    (A) (D5)  
And then I stood up when love called my name, baby
   (E)                   (F#m)   (C#m)     (A) (D5)
I stood up even when that love was all in vain, baby
     (E)               (F#m)           (C#m)   (A)   (D5)
I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain, baby
           (E) 		    (D5)  (A)	(F#m) (A) (F#m)
And then I stood up and I’ll do it again

        (A)                              (F#m)                               
Guess I never understood what she could do with all 
		  (A)	(F#m)
that flaming red hair
     (A)			   (F#m)			 
I could not stand the heat in the kitchen 
			  (A)	    (F#m)
so Jack I got on out of there
        (A)			    (F#m)                  
I stood up to get a pack of cigarettes down at the 
	 (A)	(F#m)
corner store
	      (D5)		            (E5) 			    
And now she’s standing in some corner of my heart behind 
		     (A)	(F#m)
the kitchen screen door

Chorus
	   (E)           (F#m)	(C#m)    (A) (D5)
And then I stood up when love called my name, baby
   (E)                   (F#m)   (C#m)     (A) (D5)
I stood up even when that love was all in vain, baby
     (E)               (F#m)           (C#m)   (A)   (D5)
I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain, baby
           (E) 		     (D5)      (A)
And then I stood up and I’ll do it again

                   (C#m)
I don’t know about you
                                           (D5)
There’s a lot of things I never stood up to
                                (E)
Even when I turn and walk away
                                                     (A)  (F#m)   (A)   (F#m)
I guess that’s why I’m standing on my own two feet today

     (A)			   (F#m)		     (A)	(F#m)
They gave last call for alcohol and no one has to carry me home
          (A)                      (F#m)
You see I only work here now man
                          (A)		(F#m)
My drinking days are long gone
          (A)				(F#m)
I couldn’t stand up after one no
   				(A)	(F#m)
‘Til twenty had me down on the floor
    (D5)		
The first one doesn’t get you
	(E5) 				    (A)		(F#m)	
Even though I’m still the last one out the door


Chorus
	   (E)           (F#m) (C#m)    (A) (D5)
And then I stood up when love called my name, baby
   (E)                   (F#m)   (C#m)     (A) (D5)
I stood up even when that love was all in vain, baby
     (E)               (F#m)           (C#m)   (A)   (D5)
I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain, baby
           (E) 		    (D5)   (A)
And then I stood up and I’ll do it again
