Verse 1
C C F F C C
Everyone considered him the coward of the county
G G
He never stood one single time to prove the county wrong
C C F F C C
His mama named him Tommy, but folks just called him yellow
G G C C
Something always told me they were reading Tommy wrong

Verse 2
C C F F C C
He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison.
G G
I looked after Tommy 'cause he was my brother's son.
C C F F C C
I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy:
G G C C
"Son, my life is over, but yours is just begun".


Chorus 1
C C F F C C
Promise me son not to do the things I've done
F F C C G G
Walk away from trouble if you can
C C F F C C
Now it don't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
C C F F G G
I hope you're old enough to understand
F F G G C C
You don't have to fight to be a man

Verse 3
C C F F C C
There's someone for everyone and Tommy's love was Becky
G G
In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man
C C F F C C
One day while he was workin', the Gatlin Boys came callin'
G G C C
They took turns at Becky, there were three of them.

Verse 4
C C F F C C
Tommy opened up the door and saw his Becky cryin'.
G G
The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand.
C C F F C C
He reached above the fireplace and took down his daddy's picture.
G G C C
As his tears fell on his daddy's face, he heard these words again:

Chorus 2
C C F F C C
Promise me son not to do the things I've done
F F C C G G
Walk away from trouble if you can
C C F F C C
Now it don't mean you're weak if you turn the other cheek
F F G G
I hope you're old enough to understand
F F G G C C
You don't have to fight to be a man

Verse 5
C C F F C C
The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the bar room
G G
One of the got up and hit him halfway cross the floor
C C F F C C
Tommy turned around they said, "Hey, look! Ol' Yellow's leavin'!"
G G C C
But you coulda heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and locked the door.

Verse 6
C C F F C C
Twenty years of crawlin' was bottled up inside him.
G G
He wasn't holdin' nothin' back; he let 'em have it all.
C C F F C C
When Tommy left the barroom not a Gatlin boy was standin'.
G G C C
He said, "This one's for Becky," as he watched the last one fall.

And I heard him say,

Chorus 3
C C F F C C
I promised you Dad, not to do the things you've done
F F C C G G
I'll walk away from trouble if I can
C C F F C C
Now Please don't think I'm weak, I couldn't turn the other cheek
G G
Papa I sure hope you understand
C C F F C C
sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man

C C F F C C
Ev'ryone considered him the coward of the county.
