D Am
In a workin' man's dream I found my simple truth
C G
There in the dark and on top of my roof
D Am
As the city's blue sound swept up from down under
C G
Heat lightning flashed and it got me to wonder
D Am
Are the troubles that life has seen fit to give me
C G
There to regret or there to remind me
D Am C G
I'm a real
D Am C G
I'm a real man
D Am
For so many years I believed I was broken
C G
The medicine sweet and the leaves I was smokin'
D Am
Told me I was strong righteous and firm
C G
But only if I comply and stay in the terms
D Am
With the deal made between weakness and shame
C G
To shelter me from the price of my pain

Chorus
F C D
And I'll do everything a man possible can to make a difference
F C A
I'll save my soul if you give me the chance
C D Am C G
I'll rectify my dreams if you let me see my way clear

Repeat 4x

D Am
As I thank my higher power for all that she'd done
C G
I sing to the water towers and to the rising sun
D Am
For every woman or car crash that ever broke me in two
C G
For showing me that there's alwasy a way through

Chorus
