Verse 1

A

I've seen it goin' 'round when you get bad news

Thinkin' that you found a darker shade of blue

G                                D

Lookin' for the light and it's a long way back

                                      C       A

You know without a fight you're gonna fade to black

A

Never was a man that ever felt this way

one who couldn't stand to live another day

G                           D

hard times seem to have the corner on you

                          C     A

but you can rise from the ashes too

Chorus

         D               C              G         A

When I'm on my knees and everything has gotten me beat

         D             C           G       A

and even I believe I'm never gonna find my feet

    D                                    A

Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around

         G                E                   A

one mans half way up is another mans half way down

Verse 2

A

Now you may decide it's a losin' game

even in your stride you're gonna call it lame

G                            D

Gettin' one leg up when it's said and done

                              C       A

is the hardest part no matter how you run

A

If you can walk away from a crash and burn

you'll appreciate every step you earn

G                             D

and if you feel the ground is gainin' on you

                               C         A

you're already bound to take a different view

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

D                     A

One mans ceiling is another mans floor

D                        A

One mans wall could be another mans door

C                   D

One mans smile is another mans frown

              F                 E               A

and there are miles of half way up and half way down

Outro

| A A(5) B(5) C* B(5) A(5) G(6) A | (Repeat and fade)
