The Man In Me chords by Rodney Crowell


Rodney Crowell Chords

The Man In Me
Rodney Crowell

C#m = x46654
C(bar) = x35553

Intro: E

Verse 1:
          E
There's a man in me
     E
He's cold and he's hard
            E
He's got an eye for deception
     E
He's always on guard
     D
He's swimming in concrete
    A
And drowning in fear
       E
And he keeps it all locked in his heart


Verse 2 (same chords as Verse 1:
    E
The man is a tyrant, a fault finding hack
    E
You can't tell him nothin'
        E
There's no turning back
          D
He leaves blood on the highway
    A
And scattered debris
   E
He crawls from the wreckage
       E     
But he still doesn't see
      D        A
He's alive
           E
The man is jive


Verse 3:
          E
There's a man in the mirror
  E 
I don't like his looks
    E
His teeth, they are crooked
    E
His hands are like hooks
          D
He speaks four letter language
            A
Because his mind is so small
     E
His voice is like venom
        E
I don't like him at all
        C#m            C(bar)            E
God, I gotta get away    from the man in me

Chorus 1:
She says
    A
Now what are you afraid of?
        G
There's no need to judge
    B
You know I can help you
        E
But you won't even budge
       A
Pretty flowers surround you
    G                      E
But all you can smell is a rat
E
She says
    A                         G
Now why do you insist on your head in the sand
         B                         E
Building walls all around you, you don't understand
      A
These ways are outmoded,
    G                          E
But all you can change is your hat
    D                           A            E
The man in me don't wanna know nothin' about that

Guitar Solo:   E   D   A  E (2x)  
               D   A   E

Verse 4 (same chords as Verse 2):
There's a man in the closet, 
He wants to come out
He wants to be noticed, 
But he's so filled with doubt
He wants to be known and famous
But he's so filled with pride
The keys to his fortune stay locked up inside
Can it be the man in me?

Chorus 2 (same chords as Chorus 1):
She says
Now what are you afraid of?
There's nothing to fear
You want me to help
But you won't let me near
In your heart you can hear me
But all you believe is your eyes
Tell me why you're convinced
That a fist in your face
Is all you deserve
For the love you're misplaced
The truth is salvation
But all you believe in are lies
The man in me wants to believe,
But he won't even try

Verse 5 (play same chords as Verse 3):
There's a man in me,
And he's so full of hate
He's so misdirected
He thinks it's too late
Pours salt on the wounds
Only time wants to heal
He's dying inside,
And he don't wanna feel
Anything
The man is strange...man,

Guitar Outro:  E   D   A  E (4x)
