[Verse 1]
   Bm                   Em   A                  Bm
My words don't know the truth they flutter as I speak

Bm                    Em           A                          Bm
  The sickness I feel under my belt is the disdain I have for me

Em                       A             A               Bm
 I've asked you to stand tall but it's me who's fallen down

Bm                 Em             A                        Bm
  A better man I'd like to be but I can't find my way home now
[Chorus]
   Em                  A     A                  Bm
So what kind of man am I who never looked up to see the sky

Em                 A       A                     Bm
  And every word I say has come back to haunt me every day

   Em            A   A               Bm
So here I stand alone crippled on my cane

    Bm            Em  A                 Bm
The coward I've become the loser in the game
[Intro] 1x [Verse 2]
      Bm               Em          A              Bm
These eyes you see are masked by a thin veneer of tears

Bm                             Em                           A                     Bm
 And who would have known that such a small task would have compromised all these years

         Em                A               A                    Bm
'Cause a liar's guilt is a liar's fate and man, that's just the facts

    Bm                Em                  A                  Bm
For those too weak to tell the truth into darkness you'll be cast
[Chorus]
   Em                  A     A                  Bm
So what kind of man am I who never looked up to see the sky

Em                 A       A                     Bm
  And every word I say has come back to haunt me every day

Em                 A    A              Bm
 And here I stand alone crippled on my cane

    Bm            Em       A            Bm
The coward I've become the loser in the game
[Verse 3]
   Bm            Em     A                 Bm
So dig deep, you bastard let the truth be known

Bm                     Em                A                   Bm
Angels are flying with you tonight you'd better not let them go

       Em            A            A                        Bm
'Cause if you do I'd hate to think of what your fate could be

Bm                    Em           A                  Bm
Speak your mind, tell what you know and set your soul free
[Chorus]
   Em                  A     A                  Bm
So what kind of man am I who never looked up to see the sky

Em             A       A                     Bm
  Every word I say has come back to haunt me every day

Em              A    A              Bm
  Here I stand alone crippled on my cane

    Bm            Em       A            Bm
The coward I've become the loser in the game
[Intro] 1x Bm
