      [INTRO:] C   G   Am  G  F    G  Am  F  C    G
 
[VERSE 1:]

         C            G
Have you ever walked alone at night
       Am   G          F
Like a man against the world?
G                 Am   G  F
No one takes your side
            G
A boat against the tide

[VERSE 2:]

          C                    G
When your faith is shaken, you start to break
         Am     G             F
And your heart can't find the words
        G       Am
Tossed upon the sand
  Dm7        C    G          C   F  G  F
I give you a man against the world

[VERSE 3:]

        C                     G
All the people cheer 'til the end is near
        Am   G         F
And the hero__ takes a fall
          G                    Am   G  F
Then they drag you through the mud
                      G
You're only flesh and blood

[VERSE 4:]

         C                    G
Now I've walked the path from dark to light
            Am     G       F
And they've yet to come to terms
        G       Am
Alone I take my stand
    Dm7     C   G          C 
I'm only a man against the world

[BRIDGE 1:]

    G           F
But love like a distant reminder
   C                       G
It tugs at my shoulder, it calls me home
               Dm
I shout, can a single voice carry?
       F          C               G      Bb
Will I find sanctuary within your arms?

[BRIDGE 2:]

                 C                 Bb
Someday when the answer's clearer
               C               Bb
Someday when I even the score
                        C
You'll reach and you'll find me near you
G                     A        G  A
Right beside you, forevermore

               **Key Change - Up 2 Semitones**

[VERSE 5:]

        D                 A
But for now I'll walk the night alone
       Bm   A          G
Like a man against the world
  A                  Bm     A
A brand new day will shine
           G             A
Through the avalanche of time

[VERSE 6:]

        D                         A
Now the road's grown long, but the spirit's strong
        Bm       A        G
And the fire within still burns
          A       Bm
Alone I take my stand
  Em7        D      A          D
I give you a man__ against the world


[OUTRO:] D  A   Bm  A  G    A  Bm   D   A  Asus2   D
