Verse 1 
A 
I've seen it goin' 'round when you get bad news 
 
Thinkin' that you found a darker shade of blue 
G                                D 
Lookin' for the light and it's a long way back 
                                      C       A 
You know without a fight you're gonna fade to black 
A 
Never was a man that ever felt this way 
 
one who couldn't stand to live another day 
G                           D 
hard times seem to have the corner on you 
                          C     A 
but you can rise from the ashes too 
 
Chorus 
         D               C              G         A 
When I'm on my knees and everything has gotten me beat 
         D             C           G       A 
and even I believe I'm never gonna find my feet 
    D                                    A 
Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around 
         G                E                   A 
one mans half way up is another mans half way down 
 
Verse 2 
A 
Now you may decide it's a losin' game 
 
even in your stride you're gonna call it lame 
G                            D 
Gettin' one leg up when it's said and done 
                              C       A 
is the hardest part no matter how you run 
A 
If you can walk away from a crash and burn 
 
you'll appreciate every step you earn 
G                             D 
and if you feel the ground is gainin' on you 
                               C         A 
you're already bound to take a different view 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
Bridge 
D                     A 
One mans ceiling is another mans floor 
D                        A 
One mans wall could be another mans door 
C                   D 
One mans smile is another mans frown 
              F                 E               A 
and there are miles of half way up and half way down
