Chorus:
    C                    G
      Well, you can tell everybody.
    Am                   G
      Yeah, you can tell everybody.

      Go ahead and tell everybody.
    D                      C
      I’m the man, I’m the man, I’m the man.

      I’m the man, I’m the man, I’m the man.

C               G                 Am
I believe every lie that I ever told,
               G
Paid for every heart
               D/F#
That I ever stole;
            Em                   D
I played my cards and I didn’t fold.
                    C
Well, it ain’t that hard
               D
When you got soul.
         Am/E Em
(This is my world.)

C                     G            Am
Somewhere I heard that life is a test.
                      G
I’ve been through the worst,
                      D/F#
But I still give my best.
            Em                        D
God made my mold different from the rest,
                   C
Then He broke that mold,
                 D
So I know I’m blessed.
         Am/E Em
(This is my world.)

 Am                 Em
   Stand up now and face the sun.
 D/F#                    G        G#dim7
   Won’t hide my tail or turn and run.
 Am
   It’s time to do what must be done:
 B                   B7
   To be a king when kingdom comes.

I’ll be the quick relief
                 D
To all your stressing.
         Am/E Em
(This is my world.)

C             G
It’s a thin line between love and hate.
Am            G
Is you really real, or is you really fake?
D7/F#    Em                  D
I’m a soldier standing on my feet;
         C
No surrender,
              D
And I won’t retreat.

   Stand up now and face the sun.
