By Álvaro e Pacheco - Apollo 11 (Brazil)

G+G
Here I am more or less a man
A7A7      C majorC
Second rate, the last in line
           G+G     D MajorD
One of life's little twists of fate
G+G
But here I stand
the unaccepted man [Neh 1:9]
A7A7         C majorC
At the temple gate...

G+G
Sometimes I sit and wonder why
A7A7
I was born
C majorC
When everything that I touch
     G+G      D MajorD
Seems to turn out wrong
G+G
Though I'm a mistake
        A7A7      C majorC
There must be a place I belong

     C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
But I'm outside looking in [Luke 15:14]
G+G        DmDm           Am7Am7
(Life looks so easy, they all seem so happy)
      C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
Yes, I'm outside looking in
G+G         DmDm         Am7Am7
(And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
     C majorC    D MajorD    E minorEm
I'm all alone without a friend
       C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
'Cause I'm outside looking in

G+G
The plan was laid
        A7A7
I guess I was made this way [Psa 51:5]
    C majorC
I've tried before
          G+G    D MajorD
but I just can't seem to change
G+G
Still my heart longs to belong
A7A7         C majorC
I wish there was a way

      C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
But I'm outside looking in
G+G        DmDm            Am7Am7
(The beautiful city - they all seem so happy) [Eph 2:21]
      C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
Yes, I'm outside looking in
G+G         DmDm         Am7Am7
(And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
     C majorC    D MajorD   E minorEm
The celebration will begin
          C majorC    D MajorD   G+G
While I'm still outside looking in

      D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
Oh, I'm outside looking in [Gal 4:26]
A augmentedA          E minorEm         Bm7Bm7
(They make it look easy to love and be happy)
      D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
Yes, I'm outside looking in
A augmentedA         E minorEm        Bm7Bm7
(I'm cast out and ugly and nobody loves me)
               D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
Oh, nobody knows me now I'm outside looking in
A augmentedA        E minorEm           Bm7Bm7
(The beautiful city - they all seem so happy) [Num 24:5]
              D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
Oh, nobody sees the ones outside looking in
A augmentedA         E minorEm         Bm7Bm7
(And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)

Oh, nobody knows me now
   D MajorD    E MajorE   F#M
As life goes on for them
    D MajorD    E MajorE   F#M
I will stay here in my sin
       D MajorD    E MajorE   A augmentedA
'Cause I'm outside looking in
