The Man In The Glass

         Am
When you get what you want in your struggle for self
                        G          Am
And the world makes you king for a day
     Am
Just go to a mirror and look at yourself
                  G          Am
And see what that man has to say

[Pre-Chorus 1]
       Dm
For it isn't your father or mother or wife

Whose judgement upon you must pass
        Am
But the feller whose verdict counts most in your life
                   G             Am
Is the one staring back from the glass

[Chorus]
            A
Oh, you can fool the whole world down the pathway of

yours
        G
And get pats on the back as you pass
         F
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
       E
If you cheated the man (man)...

The man in the glass

[Verse 2]
            Am
Oh, you can be like Jack Horner and chisel a plum
                   G         Am
And think you're a wonderful guy
        Am
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum
                      G               Am
If you can't look him straight in the eye

[Pre-Chorus 2]
         Dm
He's the feller to please, never mind all the rest

For he's with you clear up to the end
           Am
And you've passed your most dangerous physical test
                  G             Am
If the man in the glass is your friend

[Chorus]
            A
Oh, you can fool the whole world down the pathway of

yours
        G
And get pats on the back as you pass
         F
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
       E
If you cheated the man (man)...

The man in the glass

[Otro]
Am
No, never cheat the man in the glass, baby
Am
'Cause you're only gonna hurt yourself
Am
'Cause you see... that man in the glass is only you
