_ [G#m] _ _ They [F#m] don't _ have _ food to _ _ [G#m] eat.
_ _ _ [C#m] _ Some _ _ _ people _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ find [G] _
it _ funny.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ Because others don't have no shoes on their _ [B] _
feet.
_ _ _ _ _ Things [E] may _ _ _ _ _ be _ _ good _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D#] for [E] you [F#m] _ [E] today [G#m] but _ _
_ _ [A] _ tomorrow _ _ _
_ _ _ Things _ _ [C#m] _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ could be _ _ so rough.
_ [G#] _ [A] That's why [A#] I say [B] the only _ time [F#m] that you _ _ _
Should look down [Bm] on a man
[F#m] _ Is when _ you're thinking [E] him _ up. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
Some _ [B] _ _ _ _ people _ _ [E] _ _ _ lack _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
and other [F#] _ _ [E] people [G#m] _
_ be [A] _ _ _ _
cold. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#m] _ The [F#m] home that they live _ is so _ _ _ [G#] small.
_ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _
Some _ people _ _ _ _ find _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ it [G] _
funny.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _
Because _ _ _ some don't have no home _ [F#m] at _ [B] _ [E]
all.
_ _ _ _ _ Things may _ [B] _ _ _ [E] be _ good _ _ _ for
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D#m] _ [E] you [F#m] _ [E] today [G#m] but _ _ _
_ [A] _ tomorrow _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G#m] _
Things [F#m] could be _ _ so rough.
_ [G#] [A] That's why [A#] I say [B] the only time that [F#m] you _ _ _ _ _
Should look down on a man
_ Is when _ you're thinking [E] him _ up. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ You may be up today
_ And _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ again you may be down _ tomorrow. _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
One day your life may be filled with happiness
_ And _ [A] _ the next day with [B] so much [E] sorrow. _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You should go to the mirror _
[B] And _ _ _ _ _ take a good look at yourself _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _ And then you will see that _
_ [C#m] You are no _ [A] _ better than [Bm] nobody else.
_ [E] _ _ _
[A] So _ _ _ _ _ _ you _ _ _ _ _ should look down on a man _ _
_ _ _ _ Because _ _ everybody's somebody now
But you're still somebody's last sight of God. _
_ _ _ _ Oh _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ no, [Bm] no, no
[E] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Because you don't have what you have
_ _ You're _ _ _ _ still somebody's last sight of God. _ _ _
Oh yeah
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ Oh _ _ [Bm] _ yeah
[E] Maybe _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ you _ _ _ _ shouldn't look down on a _ _ _ _ man _
You may not have sufficient food like you have
_ _ You may not have a [E] job or a career like you _ have
But God says at least you do a [A] _ _ drag in my sight. _
_ _ _ That's why I've never looked down on a _ man _ _ _ _
_ _ Because in the eyes of God there is no big guy _ _ _ _ _
_ _ No, _ [E] no, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
no, _ no
_ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
See me be afflicted, _ _ blind, crippled, or lame _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
