   A               G      D
A modest man from Mandrake
  A                    D
Travelled rich to the city
    A             G      D
He had a need to discover
  A                        D
A use for his newly-found wealth

   D
Because he was human
   C            G
Because he had goodness
   D
Because he was moral
      C            G
They called him insane

Delusions of grandeur
Visions of splendor
A manic depressive
He walks in the rain

D
Eyes wide open
Heart undefended
C
Innocence untarnished

Chorus:
D           A
Cinderella Man
Bm              E
Doing what you can
Am                G
They can't understand
         Bm
What it means
D           A
Cinderella Man
Bm                E
Hang on to your plans
Am
Try as they might
      G                 Bm     A
They cannot steal your dreams whoa

In the betrayal of his love, he awakened
To face a world of cold reality
And a look in the eyes of the hungry
Awakened him to what he could do

He held up his riches
To challenge the hungry
Purposeful motion
For one so insane
They tried to fight him
Just couldn't beat him
This manic depressive
Who walks in the rain

Chorus:
Cinderella Man
Doing what you can
They can't understand
What it means
Cinderella Man
Hang on to your plans
Try as they might
They cannot steal your dreams
