G D
so now hold your breath
C
and set the stage
G D C
prepare yourself for the cynic's rage
G D C
is it a question still of who is man?
G D C
or how they feel and what I am
D C
but digging deep I found a way
D C
what more do I need to say?
G D
gone through life and death
C
and what remains
G D C
If any blemish hang your head in shame
G D C
like a fever that just keeps you down
G D C
would you simply let it stay around?
D C
diggin deep I guess I'll say
D C
is more pridefulness of that day
D C
in truth I know that it is clear
D C
I was distant, god is near
Em C
In the goodness and strife
G
found empty wanting life
Em C
though so long made no sound
G D
with tears I bowed myself down
G D
won't you greet this man
C
and hear his words
G D C
maybe an open ear would make him stir
G D C
could a closed heart have saved all man?
D C
diggin deep I guess I'll say
D C
is more pridefulness of that day
D C
in truth I know that it is clear
D C
I was distant, god is near
G D C
so now hold your breath and set the stage
G D C
prepare yourself for the cynic's rage
G D C
is it a question still of who is man?
G D C
or how they feel and what I am
