[D] [A]
[B] [A] [G] I move on [D] like a sinner's prayer I let it go [A] like a levee breaks
Walk away [Bm] as if I don't care Learn to [G] shunner my mistakes
I built a [D] fame like your favorite song Get reckless [A] when there's no need
Laugh as [Bm] your stories ramble on Break my [G] heart but it won't bleed
My only [Bm] friends are pies It's just [A] who I am
[G] But I'm better as [A] a man [D] than as your man I'm never sure when the truth won't do
I'm pretty [A] good on a lonely night I move on [Bm] the way a storm blows through
I never stay [G] but then again I might Struggle [D] sometimes to find the words
Always [A] sure until I doubt Walk alone [Bm] until it blurs
Build walls too [G] high to climb out But I'm honest [Bm] to a thought
It's just [A] who I am [G] But I'm better as [A] a man [D] than as your man
[G] I see you leaning [D] You're bound to fall
[A] I don't want to be that mistake [G] I'm just a [F#m] dreamer
[D] Nothing more [Em] You should know it before it gets [A] too late
Cause goodbyes are [D] like a roulette wheel You never know [A] where they're gonna land
First you're spinning [Bm] then you're standing still Left [G] holding a losing hand
But one day [D] you're gonna find someone And right away [A] you'll know it's true
That all [Bm] of your seeking's done Was just a part [G] of the passing through
Right there [Bm] in that moment You'll finally [A] understand
That [D] I was better as [A] a man [B] than as your man [G] Better as [A] a man [D] than as your man
