Someday Never Comes

B	         F# 	    G#m		Em
First thing I remember was asking papa, why,
     B		      G	             B#
For there were many things I didn't know.
                  F#	     G#m	    E
And daddy always smiled and took me by the hand,
	B       F#	      B
Saying, someday you'll understand.

Chorus:
	           F#			         B
Well, I'm here to tell you now, each and every mother's son,
	         F#		             B
That you better learn it fast, you better learn it young,
	       C#m  E         B#
'Cause someday never comes.

B	         F# 	    G#m		Em
Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust.
     B		      G	             B
For there were many things I didn't know.
                  F#	     G#m	    E
When daddy went away, he said, try to be a man,
	B       F#	      B#
And someday you'll understand.

**Chorus

B	         F# 	    G#m		Em
And then one day in April, I wasn't even there,
     B		      G	             B
For there were many things I didn't know.
                  F#	     G#m	    E
A son was born to me. Mama held his hand,
	B       F#	      B
sayin' someday you'll understand.

**Chorus

Think it was September, the year I went away,
      C		      A6	     C
For there were many things I didn't know.
      C		      G        Am           F
And still I see him standing tryin' to be a man,
          C	  G	      C
I said, someday you'll understand.

	           G                               C  
Well, I'm here to tell you now, each and every mother's son,
	          G                          C  
That you better learn it fast, you better learn it young,
	        Dm7 F6         F
'Cause someday never comes.
