| C | Em | D | |
| Never knowin' how the | real thing | feels |
| C | G | Em | D | |
| He never took a | chance or took the | time to | dance |
| Em | C | G | D | |
| And I | stood there | thinking as I | said good | bye |
| Am | G | C | D | |
| Today is the | first day of the | rest of my | life |

| Em | D | |
| That was then and this is | now |
| G | Em | C | D | |
| I'm a | new | man, | yeah, I'm a brand new | man |
| Em | C | G | D | |
| And | when they | carve my stone they'l | l write these | words |
| Am | G | C | D | |
| "Here lies a man who | lived life for | all that its | worth" |
| Chorus |
| G | C | Am | |
