This Aint Nothin

E A E A

E
He was standin' in the rubble
      A                                E
Of an old farmhouse outside Birmingham
When some on-the-scene reporter
A                                      B7
Stuck a camera in the face of that old man
          E                                   E7
He said, "Tell the folks, please mister, what are you gonna do
A
Now that this twister has taken all that's dear to you"
E                                                       B7
The old man just smiled and said, "Boy, let me tell you somethin'
           E
This ain't nothin'"

A
He said, "I lost my daddy when I was eight years old
E
That cave-in at the Kincaid Mine left a big ol' hole
A
And I lost my baby brother, my best friend, and my left hand
E
In a no-win situation in a place called Vietnam"
C#m                          A
"And last year, I watched my lovin' wife
C#m            A
Of fifty years waste away and die
C#m                          B             A              B7
And I held her hand 'til her heart of gold stopped pumpin'
E
So, this ain't nothin'"

He said, "I learned at an early age
A                                                   E
There's things that matter, and there's things that don't
So if you're waitin' here for me to cry
A                                   B7
I hate to disappoint you boy, but I won't"
E                                             E7
Then he reached down in the rubble and picked up a photograph
A
Wiped the dirt off of it with the hand that he still had
E                                               B7
He put it to his lips and he said, "Man she was somethin'
                E
But, this ain't nothin'"

A
He said, "I lost my daddy when I was eight years old
E
That cave-in at the Kincaid Mine left a big ol' hole
A
And I lost my baby brother, my best friend, and my left hand
E
In a no-win situation in a place called Vietnam"
C#m                          A
"And last year, I watched my lovin' wife
C#m            A
Of fifty years waste away and die
C#m                            B             A              B7
We were holdin' hands when her heart of gold stopped pumpin'
               E
So, this ain't nothin'"

          A                             E
He said, "This ain't nothin' time won't erase
    A                              B7
And this ain't nothin' money can't replace"

          C#m                    A
He said, "You sit and watch your lovin' wife
C#m            A
Of fifty years fightin' for her life
C#m                             B             A            B7
Then you hold her hand 'til her heart of gold stops pumpin'
Yeah, boy that's somethin'"
                E      A
"So, this ain't nothin'
               E       A
No, this ain't nothin'"
