G C G C 
G We've both seen enough of wrong and right 
We C know everything's not black and white 
G There's always something in be{C}tween. 
 
No G matter how long or well you live 
You C don't get anything you don't give 
G Still no slate is C clean C/B 
 
Am For better or worse anybody can 
Take a D look around and find a better man 
Am Upright no matter how he's faring 
C No matter what kind of shoes he's wearing 
{G}The shoe's he's wearing, C they don't make the G man. C 
 
G So many people out running around 
C Handicapped before they hit the ground 
{G}Thinking there's nowhere to C go 
G Shouldn't we all be looking for ways  
To C keep on seeing our better days 
G We're not chained to what we C know C/B 
 
But if your Am eyes are open and your mind is free 
D There's no telling what a man can be 
Am Upright no matter how you're faring 
C No matter what kind of shoes you're wearing 
{G}The shoe's you're wearing, C they don't make the G man.  
 
But if Em you D can't G walk in the D best of times 
and the worst of times 
C Find your feet still walking the line 
D You'll never carry the load worth bearing 
C No matter what kind of shoes you're wearing 
 
The shoes you're G wearing, C they don't make the G man. C 
The shoes you're G wearing, C they won't make the G man. C
