The Greatest Man I Never Knew

Biography:

Reba Nell McEntire (born on March 28, 1955 - Kiowa, Oklahoma, USA) is a Grammy Award-winning singer and one of the best-selling country music performers of all time, known for her pop-tinged ballads that include 24 #1 hits. She has issued 28 studio albums and 13 compilations, with more than 50 million records sold as of 2007.

With a contract to Mercury Records (1975), McEntire began her professional career singing heavily pop-influenced ballads, a far cry from the neotraditionalist movement she would help lead a few years later.

[Intro]
C Am F G7 C Am F G C Am F G7 C Am Fadd9

[Verse]
C Am F G7
The greatest man I never knew
C Am F
Lived just down the hall
C Am F G7
And everyday we said hello
C Am F G
But never touched at all
Am Em
He was in his paper
F Esus E
I was in my room
F G7 C
How was I to know he thought I hung the moon

[Verse]
C Am F G7
The greatest man I never knew
C Am F
Came home late every night
C Am F G7
He never had too much to say
C Am F G
Too much was on his mind
Am Em
I never really knew him
F Esus E
Oh and now it seems so sad
F G7 C
Everything he gave to us took all he had

[Bridge]
Em F
Then the days turned into years
C G C Em
And the memories to black and white
Em F
He grew cold like an old winter wind
C Gsus G7
Blowing across my life

[Verse]
C Am F G7
The greatest words I never heard
C Am F
I guess I'll never hear
C Am F G7
The man I thought would never die
C Am F G
Has been dead almost a year
Am Em
oH, He was good in business
F Esus E
But there was business left to do
F
He never said he loved me
F G C
Guess he thought I knew
