Man In The Arena

Intro: 
     G                 Bm          A                D 
If I stand or if I fall, I'm still giving it my all 
    G                     Bm              A           Bm

Bm 
  It's not the critic who counts 

Who shoots their mouth when the strong man stumbles 
Bm 
  It's not about all the noise or the fingers that point 

At the man with the ball when he fumbles 
Bm 
  They say it's too tough, telling you to give it up 
G                       A 
Never showing any love, they could never make the cut 
Bm                                          G 
  So get out of the way of those making the plays 
                  A               Bm 
When they say get ready to rumble 
G              A               Bm G A 
 Get ready to, ready to rumble 
 

 
            G                         Bm 
So let them talk from the cheap seats 
          A                       D 
We're the ones making hearts beat 
          G                 Bm 
If you're winning or losing 
           A                D 
Raise your hand, raise your hand 
     G                 Bm          A                D 
If I stand or if I fall, I'm still giving it my all 
    G                     Bm              A           D 
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena 
    G                     Bm              A           Bm 
I'm blood, sweat, tears believer, I'm the man in the arena 
 

 
Bm 
Everything they said trying to get in your head use it all to fuel your hunger 

In the sweat in your eyes but you're still gonna rise 

Getting back up only makes you stronger 
Bm                           G                          A 
  Dedication, determination, put it all together it's a deadly combination 
Bm 
  Feel the ground shake, feel the earthquake 
G                  A                    Bm 
 Following the footsteps of the giant's way 
                         G         A 
Oh, the giant's way, yeah (Lets go)

The critics they may laugh, from the comfort of their couch 
        G                       Bm                   A F#m 
And the whole world says you're wrong but they're mistaken 
       G              Bm         A           D 
If you got back up to fight, the glory is waiting 
        G         Em              Bm 
For the ones that step inside the ring
