Song
I am iron man[intro]
Verse 1
[riff2 2x]Has he lost his mind? Can he see or is he blind? Can he walk at all, or if he moves will he fall[riff1 1x]
[riff2 2x]Is he live or dead, I can see thoughts within his head. We'll just pass him there. Why should we even care[riff3 1x][riff1 2x]
verse 2
[riff2 2x]He was turned to steel in the great magnetic feild. when he traveled time for the future of mankind. Nobody wants him he just stares at the world.
[riff4 2x]Planning his vengeance, that he will soon furl[riff4 2x]
verse 3
[riff2 2x]Now the time is near for iron man to spread fear, vengeance from the grave kills the people he once saved. Nobody wants him,
[riff4 2x]They just turn there heads, nobody helps him now he has his revenge[riff4 2x][riff5 2x][solo 1][riff5 2x][riff4 4x][riff1 2x]
[riff2 2x]Heavy boots of lead, fills his victims full of dread, running as fast as they can, iron man lives again![riff3 3x][riff6 1x][solo 2]
[riff6]
