It Takes One To Know Me by Johnny Cash
It Takes One To Know Me
Capo:no capo
VERSE
C Am
it's true that i used to be crazy
F G
and harder to love than most men
C G C Am
but the blood that ran in these tired old hands
F G G
was harder and wilder back then
and i don't feel as tall as i used to
maybe it's just that you've grown
you're the one that held my hand when i fell
if i just couldn't make it alone
CHORUS
F C
I've lived out all the stories
F C
sang all the old songs
F C Am
It takes one to know me
F G C
i guess you're the one
VERSE 2
your daughters are ladies of fortune
and your son an heir to the throne
and though this crown that i hold is
tarnished and cold
it's a symbol of all that I own
sometimes i wish i was younger
and could pick up the pieces and run
but then i look back on the matter of fact
and it's a race that I've already won
CHORUS
I've lived down all the stories
sang all the old songs
it takes one to know me
i guess you're the one
I've lived down all the stories
sang all the old songs
it takes one to know me
and June you the one
