Someday Never Comes
From The Giant Harmonica Fakebook
8 9 9 9-10 9 -8 8 -8 7 7 7
First thing I remember was askin' papa, "Why?",
-8 8 -8 7 -8 7 -8 7 7 8
For there were many things I didn't know.
7 8 9 9 9 9 8 -8 8 -8 7 -8 7
And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
7 -8 8 6 8 -8 7 -8 7
Sayin', "Someday you'll understand."
CHORUS:
9 9 9 9 9 9 9
Well, I'm here to tell you now
9 9 9 9 9 9 7
each and ev'ry mother's son
9 9 9 9 9 9 9
that you better learn it fast;
9 9 9 9 9 7
you better learn it young,
8 8-8 8 -8 7 -6 6 7 7
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."
Verse 2.
Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,
For there were many things I didn't know.
When Daddy went away, he said, "Try to be a man,
And, Someday you'll understand."
CHORUS
verse 3.
And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there,
For there were many things I didn't know.
A son was born to me; Mama held his hand,
Sayin' "Someday you'll understand."
CHORUS
verse 4.
Think it was September, the year I went away,
For there were many things I didn't know.
And I still see him standing, try'n' to be a man;
I said, "Someday you'll understand."
CHORUS
