[Verse]
         A    D  A     
Well my father, he'll 
                       A     D
never see his name in lights
 A                       
Worked hard at a desk his 
            A   D
whole damn life
                  A
Didn't chase his dream

Gave himself so me and

my sisters would be alright
 
 A                 D  F#m           E  
Sometimes I wonder,  they'll say of me 
           A D F#m
when I am gone
         E               A      D
When my daughters livin' on yeah
                  F#m             
Will she care if strangers thought 
            E
that I was famous
             A               D  F#m
Or just that I was never home?
 
 
[Chorus]
       E                 F#m    
Is it the things you've done, 
            D
the places that you've been?
A       E           F#m   
 Chasin' down some dream 
              D
you'vе been imaginin'?
        E        F#m       
Or is it making peace with 
         D                 A
who you are and whеre you stand?
     F#m    E   D   Bm
I'm trying to find
                A D
What makes a man
     F#m
Woah oh
      E         A D F#m
What makes a man
 
 
[Verse]
        A     D     F#m                 
If I'm honest, I'm plagued by the fear 
     E              A D
that I am not enough   yeah
F#m         E                A D
So I work hard to measure up
            F#m         
I've run a million miles, 
           E
climbed a mountain high
          A           D      F#m
Felt the same when I was done
 
 
[Chorus]
       E                 F#m 
Is it the things you've done, 
            D
the places that you've been?
A       E           F#m  
 Chasin' down some dream 
              D
you'vе been imaginin'?
        E        F#m       
Or is it making peace with 
         D                 A
who you are and whеre you stand?
     F#m    E   D   Bm
I'm trying to find
                A D
What makes a man
 
 
[Bridge]
       F#m E
Is it power?
       A
Is it fame?
       D
Is it money?
       F#m
Is it just a game?
 
       A    D          F#m E
Is it always  wanting more?
             A                D    
Or is it in finding peace in what 
              F#m
you had all along?
 
 
[Chorus]
      E               F#m   
Is it  things you've done, 
            D
the places that you've been?
       E           A      
Chasin' down some dream 
              D
you'vе been imaginin'?
        E        F#m      
Or is it making peace with
         D                 A
who you are and whеre you stand?
     F#m   E   D   Bm
I'm trying to find
 
What makes a man
 
 
[Outro]
          F#m E      D  Bm
I've been trying to find
 
What makes a man
 
          F#m E      D  Bm
I've been trying to find
                A D F#m
What makes a man
      E         A
What makes a ma-an
 
           D            F#m
I've been trying to find
      E         A
What makes a man
