[D] [C] [D] [G]
I am a man of [G]conviction
I shattered these [Cadd9]walls
Spent my life in a [D]bottle
Cut myself, had to [G]crawl [D]
Stared down the barrel of a .[G]45
Dared the man on the[Cadd9] other side
To have the guts to pull the [D]trigger
[Cadd9]I am a [D]man of [G]conviction
CHORUS
Convicted of [C]loving one girl too much
Sentanced to [G]live without her touch
Convicted of [A]somehow forgetting God
Sentanced to [D]life of hell on earth
They ain't [C]coming back, I've never known either l[G]ife [C]
It wasn't my i[G]ntention
[D]I am a [Cadd9]man of [G]conviction
A promise made a promise broken
I left nothing uncertain
I took the lower road
My back bent to carry my load
I broke hearts along the way
Made a fool of myself most days
It wasnt my intention
But I am a man of conviction
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
CHORUS 2:
Convicted of loving one girl too much
Sentanced to live without her touch
Convicted of somehow forgetting God
Sentanced to life of hell on earth
They ain't coming back, I've never known either life
It's too late for intervention
I am a man of conviction
No don't you [C]cry for me, I've made this bed out of l[G]ies [C]
It wasn't my i[G]ntention
[D]I am a [Cadd9]man of [G]conviction
It's too late for [G]intervention
[D]I am a man of [G]conviction
I am a man of [G]conviction
