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
