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
