I'm just flesh and bone,

I struck out, I've been knocked down,
G D
More times than I can count.
G
But that don't matter now.
[Chorus]

Cause when you smile I see the sun sink down
G D
On a coast out in California.
Bm A
And there's no doubt because of you,
G D
I'm not the man I was before ya.
Bm A
I'm not saying that I'm perfect,
