The Tin Man

(kenny chesney/stacey slate/david lowe)

Saw a man in the movies that didn't have a heart
How i wish i could give him mine
Then i wouldn't have to feel it breaking all apart
And this emptiness inside would suit me fine

It's times like these
I wish i were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And i'd never even know
I'd give anything just to be the tin man
And i wouldn't have a heart and i wouldn't need a soul

I couldn't see your leavin' comin'
You took me by surprise
Even now it still seems like a dream
But i know i can't be dreamin'
'cause as i lay down each night
The pain so great that it won't let me sleep

It's times like these
I wish i were a tin man
You could hurt me all you wanted
And i'd never even know
I'd give anything just to be the tin man
And i wouldn't have a heart and i wouldn't need a soul
Well i'd give anything just to be the tin man
And i wouldn't have a heart and i wouldn't miss you so
