[Chorus]

D Fb F#m
i will fight your battles i will fall at your feet
[Verse]

she’s dusty and feels taken for granted
D Fb F#m
she’s taking no advice except her own
[Chorus]
D Fb F#m
tell me,are you still a man when you’re sleeping?
D Fb F#m
do you ever feel the cold?
D Fb F#m D
and do you lie away and think about the things you cant control?
Fb F#m
are you simply getting old?
[Verse]
D Fb F#m
he’s scared of pushing her to hunger.
D Fb F#m
scared of saying something wrong.
[Chorus]
D Fb F#m

D Fb F#m D
will i ever give this man a chance to see that i am scared,
