Verse 1

        C#                         
Looking back on the days when I was
 Fm
 scuffling for a buck.
C#7        Bb                     
Not overly concerned with life and
 D#m   D  F#  G#
 love.
D#m                          
I was always feeling sorry for 
  Bb
myself and my bad luck.
  F#                G#            
I never stopped to think what 
   C#
life's made of.

Verse 2
With my nose to the grindstone and 
Fm
my shoulder to the wheel.
G#                    Bb         
I fought for my daily dollar like
   D#m  D  F#  G#
 a man.
     D#m                      
Then you came into my life and 
 Bb
nothing else seemed real.
  F#                G#            
I found the answer right here in 
  C#    F# C# D#m
my hands.

Now I've got everything a man

 to sing in the morning.
F#                        D#m
I've got hands to hold my baby

and eyes to watch my woman smile.

Verse 3

        C#                      
Now my working days seem shorter 
         Fm
than it ever did before.
        C#                   Bb   
And the evening breeze gets cooler
        D#m D  F# G#
 day by day.
D#m                         
And the morning sun is always 
           Bb
shining down on my back door.
         F#               G#  
And your laughter washes all my 
        C#
cares away.
And there's not a day goes by that I
       Fm
 don't look up to the sky.
    Bb                           
And humbly thank the good Lord up 
  D#m   D  F# G#
above.
D#m                               
For bringing you to me in time to 
Bb
make me realize,
     F#              G#           
that all a poor man really needs 
  C#    F#  C#
is love.
