I am a man

Our lives rearranged

G#       A#/G# B/G#
Raised by my dad

Girl of the day
G#         A#/G# B/G#
He was my man
C#  C#/F# D#6/G# G#*
That was the way
G#         A#/G# B/G#
She was the girl
C#  C#/F# D#6/G# G#*
Left alone
G#           A#/G# B/G#
Feeling the need
C# C#/F# D#6/G# G#*
To make me her home


Pre-Chorus 2:

B          F#         G#m  F#6/G# G#m
I don't know what when or why
