Verse 1
Am 
My
G 
words don't know the truth,
Am 
they flutter as I speak
Dm 
The sickness I feel under my belt
G 
Am 
is the disdain I have for me
Dm 
G 
I ask you to stand tall,
but it's me who's falling down
Am 
Dm 
I'd like to be a   better man,
G 
Am 
but I can't find my way home now
Dm 
G 
What kind of man am I,
Am 
who'd never look up to see the sky,
Dm 
G 
and every word I say,
Am 
has come back to haunt me every day.
Dm 
G 
Here I stand alone,
Am 
crippled on my cane
The coward I've become,
Dm 
G 
Dm 
Am 
Dm 
G 
Am 
the loser in the game
These eyes you see are masked
Dm 
G 
Am 
by a thin veneer of tears
And who would have known
Dm 
that such a small task
G 
Am 
would have compromised all these years
Dm 
G 
A liar's guilt is a liar's fate
Am 
And man, that's just the facts
Dm 
But those too meek to tell the truth
G 
Dm 
Am 
In the darkness you'll be  cast
Dm 
G 
What kind of man am I?
Am 
I've never looked up to see the sky
Dm 
G 
And every word I say
Dm 
F 
Am 
has come back to haunt me every day
Dm 
G 
Here I stand alone,
Am 
crippled on my cane
Dm 
The coward I've become,
G 
Am 
the loser in the game
Dm 
So dig deep, you little bastard,
G 
Am 
and let the truth be known
D 
Dm 
The angels are fine with you tonight,
G 
you better not let them go
Am 
D 
Dm 
G 
Cause if you do, I'd hate to think of
Am 
what your fate could be
So speak your mind,
Dm 
tell me what you know,
G 
Am 
and set your family free
Dm 
G 
What kind of man am I?
Am 
I've never looked up to see the sky
Dm 
G 
And   every word I say
Dm 
Has come back to haunt me every day
Am 
Dm 
G 
Here I stand no longer,
Dm 
Am 
crippled on my cane
Dm 
The coward I've become,
G 
Am 
Dm 
G 
Am 
Dm 
G 
the danger in the game
You
