Boys Can Never Tell by J Roddy Walston and The Business Guitar Chords


The tabs I submit are ones I’ve figured out on an acoustic guitar, as that’s all
that I play. I think this sounds great acoustic, and since it is a softer song,
might be the most appropriate way. For the F chord, you could use either

1-3-3-2-1-1 or x-x-3-2-1-0. I alternate with both, as sometimes one feels more

comfortable to transition into than the other. Get lost in it and do what feels
right. Enjoy.

Chords used:

e-|—0—–3—–1—–3—|
B-|—1—–3—–1—–3—|
G-|—0—–0—–2—–3—|
D-|—2—–0—–3—–3—|
A-|—3—–2—–3—–5—|
E-|—x—–3—–1—–3—|

Intro – C for 4 bars (playing with the high e string held down on the 3rd fret
doesn’t sound bad for this part)

If daddy says the mountains come off, you must believe him true
I will build a science, and create a world for you
I’ll protect you from yourself, and tendencies you’ve shown
Cuz the world will see a man like you as weak and undergrown

But I’m gonna love you son
Even if you love no one
This thing you will learn too well
Boys can never tell, boys can never tell
You should bite your tongue, and will your words to fail
Boys can never tell
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/j_roddy_walston_and_the_business/boys_can_never_tell_crd.html )
You’re a lady without warning, and I’ve been loyal mean
This is not the body you were born in, and I can prove it with what I’ve seen
So I will raise you tough, build you strong and crown you king
You will put me in the ground and choose yourself a queen

But I’m gonna love you son
Even if you love no one
This thing you will learn too well
Boys can never tell, boys can never tell
You should bite your tongue, and will your words to fail
Boys can never tell

I don’t expect you to understand how much it took to care
I built you out of, half my blood, and filled your lungs with air
I only had you to make your mother stay
But when you came she left, all the same
So I have learned what love is and what it cannot be
But I will not speak of it, until you will speak of me

But I’m gonna love you son
Even if you love no one
This thing you will learn too well
Boys can never tell, boys can never tell
You should bite your tongue, and will your words to fail
G end on C, ring out
Boys can never tell
