Martin Sexton - Real man

^DIn a workin' man's dream ^AmI found my simple truth ^CThere in the dark and o^Gn top of my roof ^DAs the city's blue sound ^Amswept up from down under ^CHeat lightning flashed and it ^Ggot me to wonder ^DAre the troubles that life ^Amhas seen fit to give me ^CThere to regret or ^Gthere to remind me ^DI'm a real ^{Am C G D}I'm a real man^{Am C G D}For so many years I ^Ambelieved I was broken ^CThe medicine sweet and ^Gthe leaves I was smokin' ^DTold me I was strong ^Amrighteous and firm ^CBut only if I comply and ^Gstay in the terms ^DWith the deal made bet^Amween weakness and shame ^CTo shelter me from the ^Gprice of my pain

And I'll ^Fdo everything a man ^Cpossible can to make a ^Ddifference I'll^F save my s^Coul if you give me the ^Achance ^CI'll rectify my dreams if ^Dyou let me see my way c^Amlear ^{C G}

^DAs I thank my higher power ^Amfor all that she'd done ^CI sing to the water towers ^Gand to the rising sun ^DFor every woman or car crash t^Amhat ever broke me in two ^CFor showing me that the^Gre's alwasy a way through
