[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][A][F#m][D][F#m][A][F#m][D][F#m][A]
[D][F#m][A][F#m]

[Verse 1]
[D]Watch your [Bm]makeup
there is [G]just a smudge be[Bm]neath the eye
You look [D]great [A]in [Bm]that dress
it hits [G]every curve [Bm]just right
[D]We're got [Bm]dinner at eight,
[G]and then [Bm]drinks by nine
[D]I love y[Bm]ou so, it's out an[G]niversary to[Bm]night

[Verse 2]
[A]Suddenly everything shakes as
if it's starting to break
[Bm]And now I'm on m[G]y knees
my [D]wife screams,
"What's [F#m]Wrong!?"
As the [G]stereo plays our [D]song
[F#m]Only In Dre[A]ams[D].[F#m][A]
[D][F#m][A][D][F#m]

[Verse 3]
[A]
[D]Just last [Bm]Friday is [G]when
my heart [Bm]failed again
[D]I was t[Bm]hinking that I[G] should find a [Bm]friend
I [D]bought her [Bm]several drinks
and slipped the [G]ring in
[Bm]to my hand
[D]We drove [Bm]to her place
and let the [G]good times roll [Bm]again

[Verse 4]
[A]Suddenly everything shakes as
my protection break[Bm]s
And now I'm [G]on my knees
and [D]I scream, "This was w[F#m]rong!"
As I [G]leave, the stereo
plays the [Bm]song

[Verse 5]
The Finishing
[E]
Is [Em]this it? Is [E]this [C#]how I have
[Bm]spent my [G]life?
Lying there with a [C#]broken heart on
[E]bed[Bm]room [E]floors
And finally, [C#]fi nally, I r[Bm]ealize
[G]I r[C#]ealize that I'm onl[Bm]y a man
I'm only a [G]man
I'm only [Bm]a man[A]

[Verse 6]
I'm only a man
[Bm](One thing I have to know, where
did the miracles go?
And if a simple man believes,
will it start again with me?)
(If I were the maker I
would fashion out a blade
To cut out every inch of dead
heart I've mad)

[Verse 7]
I'm watching [Bm]this [D]screen
These [Bm]lies played out be
[D]fore [Bm]my eyes
And how they know [D]everything
Everything comes [G]easy
Well I never had it easy
[D]I was n[A]ever lucky
It was [G]never easy
And you [A]sit there
And you judge my commitment

[Verse 8]
(One th[Bm]ing I have to know, where
did the miracles go?
And if a simple man believes,
will it start again with me?)
(If I were the maker I would
fashion out [D]a blade
To cut out every inch of dead heart
I've made)

[Verse 9]
You people could [Bm]say that
I?m the bad [D]guy
Because I [Bm]was weak
I was weak once or [D]twice
Well let me tell you
[G]I'm standing in the lead
[D]I a[A]m standing in the l[G]ead
Because I can't control [D]this
per[A]son behind my hands
[Bm][Bm][Bm]
