The Measure Of A Man by ELTON JOHN Standard Tuning Key: C INTRO He plays E and G notes, but you can stay in C as well C These battered hand are all you own Am This broken heart has turned to stone F C Go hang your glory on the wall Am Em There comes a time when castles fall F Em Dm C G And all that's left is shifting in the sand C Dm You're out of time, you're out of place Em Look at your face F G C That's the measure of a man C This coat that fits you like a glove Am These dirty streets you learned to love F C So welcome back my long lost friend Am Em You've been to hell and back again F Em Dm C G God alone knows how you crossed that span C Dm Back on the beat, back to the start Em Trust in your heart F G C That's the measure of a man C Dm Em It's the fire in the eyes, the lines on the hand F G C It's the things you understand Am Em Permanent ties from which you once ran F G D# Cm That's the measure of a man D# You've come full circle, now you're home Cm Without the gold, without the chrome G# D# And this is where you've always been Cm G# You had to lose so you could win G# Gm Fm D# A# And rise above your troubles while you can D# Cm Now you can love, now you can lose Gm Now you can choose G# A# D# That's the measure of a man D# Fm Gm It's the fire in the eyes, the lines on the hand G# A# D# It's the things you understand ...
