[Intro 1]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
Saw a story on the local [D]news
last [A]night
About [G]one more struggling
single mother
She was [D]talking about how
hard it is getting by
With [A]no help, no money,
[G]no nothing from the baby's father
Made [D]me think about this guy I know
with a [A]wife and a child
Who's [G]working two jobs
just to get by
[D]Yeah, he says he'd do anything
he could in this world
[A]Just to give his young family a bet[G]ter life; yeah,
a bet[A]ter life

[Verse 2]
[D]Oh, [G]that's a man[A]
That's [D]a 19-year-old,
modern-day her[G]o hero hero man
[A]

[Verse 3]
[D]Those two young marines over
there [A]fighting for their country
[G]Man, they're gonna
be friends forever
They've [D]both come back eventually
But as [A]bonds and destiny would have it
[G]They don't come back together
Yeah, the [D]one who lived to tell about it
Why [A]he can't even talk about it
[G]Keeps fighting that fight
up there in his head
Ain't a [D]day goes by he
don't won[A]der why
Why it wasn't me [G]instead
It could've been [A]me instead

[Verse 4]
[D]Oh, [G]that's a m[A]an
That's a you [D]don't know how hard he tried
[G]to save his buddy's life man
[A]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]
I don't know about [G]you
But sometimes,
I [D]just need a little remind[A]er[Bm]
When I've been walking
[G]through this world
With [D]blinders on, yes [A]I h[Bm]ave
You know it'd never hurt [G]a man
To try [D]an d be a better [A]man
[G]And reach down and find
some understanding
[A]Find some kind of kindness
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[G][A]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 6]
Read about a man who said his [D]family
Had been [A]farming the same
land [G]in Ohio for 100 years
[D]Felt like he'd paid for
it ten times [A]over
With [G]his own blood, his own sweat,
and his own tears
[D]If he had to,
he'd be out there [A]on that tractor working
[G]Seven long, hot days a week
Yeah, [D]he's the kind of feller that
people get real [A]quiet
When he stands [G]up in
church to speak
[A]They know when he speaks

[Verse 7]
[D]Oh, [G]that's a m[A]an
That's [D]a stand tall, walk straight
Put [G]God's share
in the collection plate [A]man
[D]Oh, [G]that's a m[A]an
[D]Oh, [G]that's a man.
