Verse
G Gmaj7
Tell me the truth, how do you feel?
C Am
Like you're rollin' so fast that you're spinnin' your wheels?
G D
Don't feel too bad, you're not all alone
Cmaj7 Am
We're all tryin' to get along
[Verse 2]
G Gmaj7
With ev'rybody else tryin' to go their way
C Am
You're bound to get tripped, and what can you say?
G D
Just go along til they turn out the lights
Cmaj7 Am
There's nothin' we can do to fight it
[Chorus]
C D G
No man's got it made
Am7 Bm C
Till he's far beyond the pain
G D Em
And we who must remain
D Cmaj7 D G D
Go on living just the same
[Verse 3]
G Gmaj7
I once knew a man, a very talented guy
C Am
He'd sing for the people and people would cry
G D
They knew that his song came from deep down inside
Cmaj7 Am G
You could hear it in his voice and see it in his eyes
Gmaj7 C Am
And so he traveled along, touch your heart, then be gone
G D C Am
Like a flower, he bloomed till that old hickory wind called him home
[Chorus]
C D G
My man's got it made
Am7 Bm C
He's gone far beyond the pain
G D Em
And we who must remain
D Cmaj7 D G
Go on living just the same
[Solo]
