Only A Man

Cm7   |       |

[Verse 1]
Cm7                           F9                         Bb
Only a man who's broken can appreciate the awful pain I feel
F/A              Gm              G7            Cm7
Only a man who's world is always real can ever know
Cm7             F9                          Bb
And who could understand the all consuming pain
F/A               Gm             G7                 C6
Only a man who's weeping in the rain knows where to go

[Chorus]
             F9
And it's not easy
          Bb          F/A             Gm
When you realize that you are on your own
G7       C6
  Ah, ah
                F9
No, no it's not easy
          Bb                  F/A         Gm  G7 |  Cm7  |     |
When you face the thought of living all alone

[Verse 2]
Cm7                                 F9                        Bb
Only a man who wanders through the emptiness of every passing day
F/A                   Gm                G7              Cm7
This is the man whose eyes know what to see and what to say
               F9                          Bb
And who could ever know the feeling in my heart
F/A               Gm                   G7          C6
Only a man whose hopes and dreams are broken all apart

[Chorus]
              F9
And it's not easy
          Bb              F/A               Gm
When you reach out in the dark to touch her face
G7       C6
  Ah, Ah
                F9
No, no it's not easy
        Bb               F/A            Gm   G7 | Cm7
When instead you touch a pillow in her place

[Interlude] (with vocal ad lib)
Cm7    |  F9  |  Bb F/A  | Gm  G7  |
Cm7    |  F9  |  Bb F/A  | Gm  G7  | C6

[Chorus]
              F9
And it's not easy
          Bb             F/A               Gm
When you think about the way she combs her hair

G7       C6
  Ah, Ah
                 F9
No no, it's not easy
         Bb         F/A         Gm   G7  |  Cm7  |      |
When the memory of her is everywhere

[Verse 3]
Cm7                            F9                          Bb
Only a man who lies awake and wonders will he never smile again
F/A              Gm                 G7             Cm7
This is the only man whose lonely nights can never end
           F9                                 Bb
And if you want to know the kind of man he'll be
    F/A                   Gm               G7              C6
Oh, listen my friend I'll tell you all you have to know is me

[Chorus]
             F9       C6
And it's not easy, no no
          F9   C6
It's not easy
             F9    C6
Oh, it's not easy, oh
F9        C6
  Oh, oh, ah
