intro: G5 C5 G5 C5  (Lick 1 x2) 

G5 
I could say it's all her fault 
 
She never had any patience at all 
       C5 
I'm a complicated guy 
                            G5 
And she didn't try to understand 
 
(Lick 2) 
 

G5 
I could claim I had nothing to do 
 
With the fact that I'm lonesome and blue 
          C5                  D5 
But that wouldn't be true 
                 G5 
I'm a self made man 

Refr?o -------------
      C5                G5 
Yeah I'm the one that fooled around  
     A5               G5 
And let the one that loved me down 
     C5              G5                 D5  D5 
And she had more of me than she could stand 
C5             G5        
I blamed everyone but me  
    A5                 G5  
But now that it's too late I see 
   A5            G5       C5 
Nobody helped me get where I am 
       D5         G5    
I'm a self made man
--------------------
(Lick 1 x1) 
 
I could blame it on the way I was raised 

Or I could say that I was just too afraid 

To let my heart in somebody else's hands 

(Lick 2) 

I could always make one more excuse 

but in the end, what's the use 

I might as well face, I'm a self made man 
 
repeat chorus 
 
Lead 
( C5 G5 A5 G5 C5 G5 ) 
 
D5 D5  C5             G5        
woa--,   I blamed everyone but me  
    A5                 G5  
But now that it's too late I see 
   A5            G5       C5 
Nobody helped me get where I am 
       D5         G5    
I'm a self made man 
  
(Lick 1 x3)
