Man That I Am

D  G

[Verse 1]
D                                               G
Well I had thought that I knew every reason to cry
A                           D
But I suppose that I was a fool
D                                       G
And I was sure that I had no reason to lie
A                                    D
But lately it seems I’m making new rules

[Chorus]
              G              A
And isn’t it rich isn’t it grand
                    G                     D
The darkness that hides in the soul of a man
                  G                  A
You struggle so hard, to fall back again
     Em         D             G                  D
Well I never thought that I’d be, the man that I am

[Verse 2]
D                                                  G
Now it would take an act of God just to open the door
A                                      D
That once would’ve opened with only a key
D                                                               G
And you would need a bridge so strong it could hold the whole world
          A                                             D
Just to carry the things that I’ve wasted back home to me

[Chorus]
              G               A
And isn’t it rich isn’t it grand
                    G                     D
The darkness that hides in the soul of a man
                  G                  A
You struggle so hard, to fall back again
     Em         D              G                 D
Well I never thought that I’d be, the man that I am

[Bridge]
                G                                    D
The man that I am doesn’t see nothing but what he desires
 A                                                      D
And he’d rather live with the losses than put out the fires

[Verse 3]
D                                                  G
And I have come to this place by the road that I paved
           A                                               D
With the stones of a heart that I carried but left hidden away

[Chorus/Ending]
              G               A
And isn’t it rich isn’t it grand
                    G                     D
The darkness that hides in the soul of a man
                  G                  A
You struggle so hard, to fall back again
     Em        D               G   Em        D             G
Well I never thought that I’d be, I never thought that I’d be
 Em             D         A                 D
I never thought that I’d be, the man that I am
