Em G Am
Em G Am C B5 Am G Am
Do you know, how sad it is to be a man alone.
Em G Am C B5 Am G Am
I feel so, solitary even in my home.
Dm C5 B5 A5
Without you, don't know what to do,
C5 B5 A5 G5 A5
And I don't know where you go.
Em G Am C B5 Am G Am
I can see, my life is meant to fall apart someday.
Em G Am C B5 Am G Am
Just to be, a simple man who sadly lost his way.
Dm C5 B5 A5
Got no girl, so I got no world,
C5 B5 A5 G5 A5 C B5 Am G C B5 Am G
And I got no words left to say.
Am C Em
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, come, make me happy,
C D
Like I never, known before.
Am C
Say, say, say, say, say, have you ever,
Em C D G Am
Known a heart, who needed you more.
Em G Am C B5 Am G Am
Without you, what's that sound around my heart I feel.
Em G Am C B5 Am G Am
Something new, I'm sure the love you've given must be real.
Dm C5 B5 A5
I know now, and I'm sure of how,
C5 B5 A5 G5 A5
I can be the man I feel.
C5 B5 A5 G5 A5
I can be the man I feel.
