G (320003@1)         
Here I am more or less a man
A7 (x02020@1)         CSecond (x32010@1)rate, the last in line
                     G (320003@1)        DOne (xx0232@1)of life's little twists of fate
GBut (320003@1)here I stand
the unaccepted man [Neh 1:9]
A7 (x02020@1)               CAt (x32010@1)the temple gate...


GSometimes (320003@1)I sit and wonder why
A7I (x02020@1)was born
CWhen (x32010@1)everything that I touch
          G (320003@1)          DSeems (xx0232@1)to turn out wrong
GThough (320003@1)I'm a mistake
                A7 (x02020@1)          CThere (x32010@1)must be a place I belong
   
          C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   GBut (320003@1)I'm outside looking in [Luke 15:14]
G (320003@1)             Dm (xx0231@1)                   Am7(Life (x02010@1)looks so easy, they all seem so happy)
            C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   GYes, (320003@1)I'm outside looking in
G (320003@1)               Dm (xx0231@1)                Am7(And (x02010@1)everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
         C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)      EmI'm (022000@1)all alone without a friend
              C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   G'Cause (320003@1)I'm outside looking in

GThe (320003@1)plan was laid
               A7I (x02020@1)guess I was made this way [Psa 51:5]
       CI've (x32010@1)tried before
                   G (320003@1)     Dbut (xx0232@1)I just can't seem to change
GStill (320003@1)my heart longs to belong
A7 (x02020@1)                CI (x32010@1)wish there was a way

           C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   GBut (320003@1)I'm outside looking in
G (320003@1)             Dm (xx0231@1)                     Am7(The (x02010@1)beautiful city - they all seem so happy) [Eph 2:21]
           C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)    GYes, (320003@1)I'm outside looking in
G (320003@1)               Dm (xx0231@1)                Am7(And (x02010@1)everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)
         C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   EmThe (022000@1)celebration will begin
                   C (x32010@1)     D (xx0232@1)   GWhile (320003@1)I'm still outside looking in


           D (xx0232@1)     E (022100@1)   AOh, (x02220@1)I'm outside looking in [Gal 4:26]
A (x02220@1)                 Em (022000@1)                Bm7(They (x20202@1)make it look easy to love and be happy)
           D (xx0232@1)     E (022100@1)    AYes, (x02220@1)I'm outside looking in
A (x02220@1)                Em (022000@1)             Bm7(I'm (x20202@1)cast out and ugly and nobody loves me)
                              D (xx0232@1)      E (022100@1)   AOh, (x02220@1)nobody knows me now I'm outside looking in
A (x02220@1)              Em (022000@1)                   Bm7(The (x20202@1)beautiful city - they all seem so happy) [Num 24:5]
                            D (xx0232@1)     E (022100@1)   AOh, (x02220@1)nobody sees the ones outside looking in
A (x02220@1)               Em (022000@1)                Bm7(And (x20202@1)everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly)

Oh, nobody knows me now
     D (xx0232@1)      E (022100@1)    F#M
As life goes on for them
        D (xx0232@1)      E (022100@1)    F#M  
I will stay here in my sin
              D (xx0232@1)     E (022100@1)   A (x02220@1)
'Cause I'm outside looking in
