Chords

[Intro] C C F G [Verse]
C
I'm bad news, a black and blues-er

F                               G
Who's a loser, a merry-go-round spiraling down

C
I'm all used up, I'm chaffed and chewed up
Who's just screwed up, same old Charlie hitting the ground [Chorus]
                         C
'Cause I'll never be the soul of a man, noble and wise

         F                           G
Like the soul of a man who lifted me high

         C
Like the soul of a man, heroic and true

         F                              G
Like the soul of a man that I looked up to
What else could I do? [Verse]
C
Stupid hubris, no excuses, I blew my fuses

F                             G
I guess I'm just a ruse in my father's shoes

C                                      F
not amusing, there's no confusing this streak of losing

G
Totally brutal and useless too
[Chorus]
                 C
How can I be the soul of a man, noble and wise

         F                           G
Like the soul of a man who lifted me high

         C
Like the soul of a man, heroic and true

         F                              G
Like the soul of a man that I looked up to
What else could I- [Bridge]
Am            Em
Just when I'm reaching for that rung at the top

F                                             G
On that broken heel unsteady, ready, ready to drop
[Chorus]
                   C#
When will I be the soul of a man, noble and wise

         F#                           G#
Like the soul of a man who lifted me high

         C#
Like the soul of a man, heroic and true

         F#                             G#
Like the soul of a man that I looked up to
What else could I do? [Outro]
C#             F#
I'll never be, no I'll never be

G#
I have gone and let you down

C#
Woah, soul, soul of a man

F#
Here comes that familiar sound

                              G#
Same old Charlie, hitting the ground
C#
