Be Your Man (Live)

[Verse 1] D A C G D When I got to New York City I was looking for another side of life D A C G D And my feet were so damned calloused I could probably walk the edges of a knife Bm A C G D A My mistakes had often led me to believe I'd never find an open door D A C G D now I'm busted flat and broken and I don't know what the hell I'm waiting for [Verse 2] D A C G D Some could see that I was stumbling and a couple even stopped to lend a hand D A C G D Most would pass me by and ridicule and failed to recognize a fellow man Bm A C G D A Now the wind is growing bitter and the leaves begin to die and start to fall D A C G D And I wonder if next summer I will even be around this place at all Chorus A G D If I could go back to the days when I was young A G D I'd travel the whole world over and then some Bm A C G D A And I'd come back to you with an everlasting Lily in my hand A C G D And I’d show the world just what it means to me for me to get to be your man [Verse 3] D A C G D On the edges of a fading afternoon I heard a voice within my head D A C G D And the echoes of forgotten words from all the dusty books I have not read Bm A C G D A And I wondered if by chance I should have listened back to what they said in school D A C G D It occurred to me I might have been the class clown then but now I’m just a fool Chorus A G D If I could go back to the days when I was young A G D I'd travel the whole world over and then some Bm A C G D A And I'd come back to you with an everlasting Lily in my hand A C G D And I’d show the world just what it means to me for me to get to be your man A C G D And I’d show the world just what it means to me for me to get to be your man
