Chords for Paul McCartney & Michael Jackson - The Man (Home Movie Footage, 1981)

_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
Michael was [Dm] interested in [G] writing with me and he rang me.
He rang [Dm] me this time.
[F] It was different.
[E] [A] He rang me up [Gm] and _ _ [Dm] I didn't [F] believe it was him.
[Gb] So I said,
who's this?
[G] He said, Michael.
[Am] You sure?
[Bb] _ Michael who? _
[D] Anyway, so we had a joke about that
[N] kind of thing.
He said, yeah I'd like to come over [Am] and write with you.
[Dm] So I said, great, because I really love this voice.
He's a great [C] singer and
a great dancer.
_ [Db] So I'm very impressed with him anyway.
So he came over to England
[Am] and we just sat down.
[Dm] I thought, [Gm] well, [Am] it's not easy to just sit [Db] down with anyone you [D] don't know
[A] and just write, start a [E] songwriting.
[Bb] You've got to get the chemistry right.
[C] But I thought, well, it is Michael.
I mean, I'll [Gm] just try.
If it doesn't [Am] work, we just throw it away.
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] As a man, _ _ [G] everybody thought [Am] they knew.
_ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [Gm] He's not like me [Am] and you.
_ _ [Bb] _ _
And it's just the way he [Am] thought it would be.
As [Bb] he says, something [Am] has happened to me.
And [Bb] he laughs.
He picks [C] and rolls up [Am] the sleeves.
[Bb] I'm alive.
_ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] And [Gm] it's just the way [Am] he thought it would be.
Because [Gm] the day has come [Am] for him to be free.
And [Gm] he laughs as he smiles [Am] and rolls up the sleeves.
[Gm] I'm alive and I'm here [Am] forever.
This [Gbm] is the [A] man.

Did you [F] know _ [G] this man can do _ [Am] anything?
_ _ [Bb] _
And such a [F] man.
_ [Gm] I wish that we [Am] could bring.
_ _ [Bb] _ _
And it's just the way [Am] he thought it would be.
[Bb] Because the day has come [Am] for him to be free.
[Bb] And he laughs.
He picks [Am] and rolls up the sleeves.
[Bb] I'm alive and I'm here [Am] forever.
_ _ [Gbm] _ _ [E] _ _ [D] _ _
[Dm] And [Gm] it's just the way [Am] he thought it would be.
Because [Gm] the day has come [Am] for him to be free.
[Bb] And he laughs.
He picks [Am] and rolls up the sleeves.
[Gm] I'm alive and I'm here [Am] forever.
This [D] is the man. _ _ _
