Song: I Could Never Be That Man Tab
Intro: x2
F C F C F C D G
G C
I've got my reasons for holding back,
F G
Can't give my trust too fast
G C
I've pulled myself out of the wreck too many times
F G
To think that words can last
***Chorus*********
D A
You need someone to help you when you're down
C D G
Pick you like a pearl from the sand
D A
Somebody who's devoted to you
C D G D/F# Em
Right beside you when you take a stand
C D F C F C F C D G
I could never be that man.
*******************
G C
You have a special shrine in your room
F G
Pictures of lovers on the wall
G C
I loved to lie there and look into their eyes,
F G
So confident before you let them fall
***Chorus 2***
G C
Will you tell me please how to get them off their knees,
F G
Twirling 'round you fast as they can,
G C
How did you know that it worried me so,
F G
Not the ones who fall, but the ones who stand
I could never be that man.
***SOLO
G C
I still remember that time in my life
F G
When I was sinking so low.
G C
You stayed with me all through the night
F G
And sang me some songs you know.
***Chorus 3***
D A
Now as time goes on, I wonder what went wrong,
C D G
Didn't I fit into your little plan
D A
Couldn't I be the one you lay your troubles on,
C D G D/F# Em
Walk you to the edge and hold you hand,
C D G D/F# Em
Pick you like a pearl from the sand,
C D G D/F# Em
Open every doorway that I can,
C D G D/F# Em D C D G C D G C D G
I could never be that man.
