[Verse 1]
B Emaj7 B
Boy, please don't throw away your life
Emaj7 G#m7
All the joy, please don't end it with a knife
C#7 B/F# D#m7 C#m7 Em B
'Cause you know there's hope for you
B Emaj7 B
I was alone like the silence in the night
Emaj7 G#m7
I had no home no one close to hold me tight
C#7 B/F# D#m7 C#m7 Em
But you know there's hope for you,
B
For you
[Chorus]
E B
Everywhere I look I see your face
G#m7 D#m7
Every step I take seems out of place
E C#7
You got to be a man to run the race
C#m7
I'm not a hopeless man
C#m7/F# B
How can you say I am?
[Verse 2]
B Emaj7 B
I was alone like the silence in the night
Emaj7 G#m7
I had no home no one close to hold me tight
C#7 B/F# D#m7 C#m7 Em
But you know there's hope for you,
B
For you
[Chorus]
E B
Everywhere I look I see your face
G#m7 D#m7
Every step I take seems out of place
E C#7
You got to be a man to run the race

I'm not a hopeless man
C#m7/F# A/B G#m/B F#m/B G#m/C#
How can you say I am
