John Mayer - Man on the Side 8/20/08 chords
Start Jamming...
This girl [E] would eventually re-dig out her date about 10 minutes before the date.
[B] And I made the mistake of getting so caught [B] up in it that I did that thing [E] that you do, it's really fun but it's a little weird.
I laid out all my [D] clothes.
That's [B] the way I might look standing looking at [G#m] myself on the ground.
[G#] So I took the [N] shirt.
And I [D] stepped on it and I took a pic.
[G]
[G#m] And then I took the shoes and I had to tuck the shoes in my pants and try to keep them pointed up.
You know what I mean?
But you can't, so instead the [G#m] shoes just go like this.
[C#]
So you guys do it like I do.
[A] [A#m]
[C#m] And I go, I don't fuck it.
[E]

[Em]
[B]
[E]
I'm back in the [B] great [F#m] environment.
Excuse me, [E] Mrs.
Miss [B] Violet.
[F#m]
Could you please throw [E] me in the well [B] again?
[F#m]
And we both know [F#] that the worst [C#m] part about it is I will be free when you [F#] want me.
If [E] you want me.
[B]
[E]
I'm living [F#m] on [A] the side.
[B] [E]
Hoping [F#m] you'll wake up your wife.
[B] Yeah.
[E]
[F#m] I'm a woman.
[G#m] A woman's survival [A] is right.
You are faster than [E] on the side.
[A] On [E] the side.
[C]
I fell in love [E] with a dream that I built on you.
Can't get enough of the [B]
candle.
[E] [C] I'm taking my own [D] advice and I'll give it up tonight.
[E]
Good luck to you in [G] the game.
[E]
[C#m]
[B]
[C#]
[E]
[B]
[A]
[F#m]
Love is yours.
[C#m]
It's [B] not a [F#m]
[C#m]
[B] game.
[F#m]
Survival is my [C] life.
[C#m] I will be free when [F#]
you [B] want me.
[E] If you want me.
If you want [B] me.
[E]
I'm [F#m] living on the side.
[B] [E]
Hoping [F#m] you'll wake up your [B] [E] wife.
A woman's [F#m] [G#m]
survival is [A] right.
[D]
You are faster [Em] than on [A]
the side.
You are faster [A] than on the [C] side.
Ah, [Bm]
ah, [E] ah, ah.
