Man
Elton John/Bernie Taupin
intro:
C C/Bb F/A Fm/Ab C/G Em/G Dm/G
C G/B Am C/G
Man stands in all his glory
F Em/G Dm/G C F/C G/D
Sitting at the crossroads of the same old story
C G/B Am C/G
Man got his make-up, wears it like a mask
F Em/G Dm/G C
Hides inside a child, lives inside a glass
C/E G A7 A7/C# Dm C/D Dm7
Man breathes his own deceit
C/D G Em/G Dm/G C F G
Man worships his own defeat
C Dm
Oh I'm a man, I know what it feels like
Dm7 C Em/G Dm/B C
I'm a man, working on the living part of life
G/B Am Fm C/G
You see through me, I understand
F D7/F# G E7/G# E7/B A
But don't lose hope if you can
Dm C/E F G
Have a little faith in man
Shakespeare's men got all the lines
Modern man lives back in time
Man got bravado in his big steel hands
Runs with the wolf, sleeps with the lamb
Man falls, cuts and bleeds
Man stumbles on his own belief (to chorus)
Ab
He's the hoax behind the thrill
Eb
The poison arrow, the bitter pill
Gb Db
Hard to swallow, hard to kill, hard to understand
Ab
He's the light behind the hill
Eb
The broken promise, the iron will
D7 G
Hard to kill, hard to understand (to chorus)
outro:
