Man Alone

C                                 
I woke up this morning,with 
        Em
ribbons in my bed,
I could not remember how they had 
          C
got there
just the warmth from someone's body 
    Em      C
gone.

My body's aching, my mind it cannot 
 Em
rest.
My thoughts are vacant, there's a 
                C
rattle in my chest
too old to be playing these games 
      Em
again.


Chorus:
                G      C          
I was hoping to change, just I 
       Em
never did.
                        G   C     
And now I'm kicking the cage, to 
           Em
get rid of it.

Verse 2

C                              
Hands full of splinters, there's 
                 Em
timber in my skin.

You'd probably hate this, but I am 
            C
used to it.
                           Em      C
I cannot fake it, but I do.


Held down in some late-night bar,
      Em
where the pretty girls know who you 
are,
       C                        
trying to find your heart in all 
                   Em
those hopeless faces.


Chorus:
                    G    C        
And I was hoping to change, just I
            Em
 never did.
                    G    C        
Now I'm kicking the cage, right in
            Em
 front of it.
                   G     C        
I'm so sick of the rage, I can't 
            Em
get rid of it.
                   G     C        
And with nobody to blame, I'm in 
                     Am          
the thick of it - and I walk as a
Em       C
 man alone.


Bridge:
A                  Em
So what you're chasing,
A                       Em
you think is noble and right,
A                         G
I guess you'll learn in time,
              G                Em
you're not entitled to anything.


Chorus:
                        G      C  
So won't you hand me the reigns, 
                   Em
for the thrill of it.
                      G     C     
You see I got what it takes, just 
            Em
to handle it.
                      G    C      
Won't you tell me I'm great, I'm 
           Em
in need of it.
                      G      C
It's not a question of blame, so 
stand in front of it.
    Am          Em      C     Am
And I walk as a man alone, oh I 
          Em       C
walk as a man alone,
   Am          Em       C
no I walk as a man alone.
