Man Against The World by Survivor

Chords with lyrics

This is my first tab, some parts (2nd bridge part) may not be 100% correct,
but this may give you an idea how you can play that song on guitar.

Intro: you may want to pick the piano intro (not that hard to find, try it)
or play the first verse chords (doesn?t fit with the original! but sounds not so bad):

F-C-Dm-Bb-C-Dm-Bb-C

(Verses 1-4):
