I am a man whose life at sea has been [G] fulfilled with [F] all [D] his dreams.

man of the blues.
I've traveled far from this old town, I've been [G] blown up, [F] I've [D] been torn down.
I drank the whiskey, tasted the alcohol, came, [A] believed in height, [F] but then I cried [D] in shame.
So now I stand with [Dm]
[D] open arms [Am] to [G] feel the judgment [Dm] and feel the charm.
