Leroy Virgil - Just The Shell Of A Hell Of A Man chords
Start Jamming...
Daddy's a fuckin' drunk, can't even walk up to the fuckin' stairs anymore.
So fuckin'
I [Bb] love my 100-foot daughter.
[Em] [A] My fuckin' best [E] buddy back home, the best man at my wedding, he's so fuckin' strong I don't feel safe.
Fuckin' hit [C] him, can't even tell what he's saying.
You come from a strange world, motherfucker.
[G]
This one is just called, Just the Shell of a Hell of a Man.
[Em] That don't get around like he [Am] used to.
These days, [C] he takes it kinda slow.
The [F] years and the miles, [C] the tears and the [F] trials,
[D] drained him, he [G] can't bear to go on.
Down here once [C] was a mountain,
[G] [F] it's down to [G] a few grains of [C] sand.
[E]
[F] That Lord, it sure sad, how [C] where my dad used to stand.
[D] Just a shell [G] of a hell of [C] a man.
[G]
[C] My old friend's all [Bm] strung [Am] out in lowdown.
[C] And lately, he ain't been all there.
Once we fought [F] side by side, now [C] he's empty inside.
[D] And pills stripped [G] his soul bare.
That [C] [G] man who ran [C] like the rivers,
[G]
[G] is withered and cracked like [C] dry land.
[G]
[Bm] [C] And I can't comprehend, how where my friend used to stand.
[Dm] This is just a shell [G] of a hell of [C] a man.
[A] [D] Darling, [Gb] I ain't [Bm] what I once was.
Hell, [G] I've lost my guts and true [D] grit.
This [G] time on the road, is drying my [G] soul.
[E] And I need you more than I'd like to [A] admit.
You know, I once felt some big shoes.
But now I'm down in [A] the palm of your hands.
[Db] [G] And you help me stand.
[A] Girl, you know I [G] still have.
This [Bm] shell of a [Am] hell of a man.
[B] [C]
[B] [Bb] [A] [F]
[Gbm] [Bb] [Am]
[Ab] [F] Congrats.
