Understand Your Man
By Johnny Cash


C                           Am
Don’t call my name out your window, I’m leaving
F                    G
I won’t even turn my head
C                            Am
Don’t send your kin folks to give me no talkin’
D                   G
I’ll be gone like I said
      C                                        C7
You’d say the same old things that you’ve been saying all along
F                      
Lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut ‘til I’m gone
C                               Am 
Don’t give me that old familiar cryin’ cussin’ moan,
F    G          C                      Am  
Understand your man (I’m tired of your badmouthin’)
F    G          C
Understand your man.


You can give my other suits to the Salvation Army
And everything else I leave behind.
I ain’t takin’ nothing that’ll slow down my travelin’
While I’m untanglin’ my mind.

I ain’t gonna repeat what I said anymore
While I’m breathin’ air that ain’t been breathed before
I’ll be as gone as a wild goose in winter
Then you’ll understand your man (meditate on it)
Understand your man (you hear me talkin’)
Understand your man (remember what I told ya)

Can anyone post the intro and solo
with the slide guitar?

This is one of the few songs that has a steel guitar or trumpets, let alone both. In what world is this the best
-DB13 | 9/4/2005
Well, it's just cool to have a slide guitar,
and trumpets in the same song. It's unique.
I love the lyrics in this song. It's one of
those "Kiss my a$$ goodbye, I'm leavin'" songs. It's right cool.

it seems like a capo sould be placed on the first fret anyone agree?
-Georgejones12 | 5/19/2008
Depends on what version you are listening to. I am sure there are versions, as Cash re-recorded the song, that may have a capo or lack of one but based upon the recording I was tabbing from, this didn't require a capo.
