[Verses 1-4]
         F           C
Have you ever walked alone at night
       Dm   C          Bb
Like a man against the world?
C                 Dm   C Bb
No one takes your side,
Bb                 C
A boat against the tide.

           F                   C
When your faith is shaken, You start
 to break,
         Dm       C           Bb
And your heart can't find the words.
        C       Dm
Tossed upon the sand
  Gm7         F   C          F
I give you a man against the world

        F                     C
All the people cheer till the end is
 near
       Dm    C         Bb
Then the hero takes a fall.
        C                   Dm    
They'll drag you through the mud.
C Bb

Bb                    C
You're only flesh and blood.

Oh I've walked the path from dark to
 light
           Dm      C      Bb
And have yet to come to terms.

Alone I take my stand,

I'm only a man against the world.

    C
But love!
       Bb
Like a distant reminder,
   F
It tugs at my shoulder,
   C
It calls me home.
  C
I shout!
      Gm
Can a single voice carry?
       Bb
Can I find sanctuary?
    F        C     Eb
Within your arms?

                 F                 
Someday when the answer's clearer
  Eb

               F                 Eb
Someday when I even the score
                        F
You'll reach and you'll find me near
 you
C
Right beside you
    D         C D
Forevermore

Like a man against the world.

Through the avalanche of time.

Though the road is long,

But the feeling's strong,

And the fire within still burns.
