The Man Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am][Em][F][Am]
[Em]Now [F]I
don't wanna [Am]hate you
Just wish you'd never gone
[Em]for the man
[Am]And waited two weeks at least
Before you let him take you
I stayed true
I kind of knew you liked the dude
[Em]from private school
[F]He's waiting for the time to move
I knew he had [Am]his eyes on you
He's not the right guy for you
Don't hate me cause I [G]write the truth
[Am]No I would never [F]lie to you
But it was never [G]fine to lose [Am]you
And what a way to find out
It never came from my [F]mouth
You never changed your mind
[Am]But you were just afraid to mind out
But fuck it, I won't be changing
the sub[Em]ject I love it
[F]I'll make your little secret pub
[Am]lic it's nothing
I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep
with in your [Em]closet to get [F]back at me
Trapped and I'm [Am]lacking sleep
Fact is you're mad at me be[F]cause
[Am]I backtrack so cas[Em] ually
You're [Am]practically my family
If we married then I'll guess
you'd have to be
But tragically our love
just lost the will [F]to live
But would I kill to give it one more shot
[Am]I think not

[Verse 2]
I don't love you, baby
I [F]don't need you, baby
[Am]I don't want you, no
[Em]Any [F]more
I don't love [Am]you, baby
I [F]don't need you, baby
I [Am]don't wanna love you, no
[Em]Anymore[F]

[Verse 3]
Recently I tend to zone [Am]out
Up in my headphones [F]to
[Am]Holocene
You promised your [F]body
but I'm away so much
I stay more celib[Am]ate than in
a monastery
I'm not cut out for life on the road
[Em]'Cause I didn'[F]t know
I'd miss you this much
And at the [Am]time we'd just go,
so sue me
I guess I'm not the man that [F]you need
Ever since you went to uni
I've been sofa surf[Am]ing with
a rucksack
Full of less cash and I guess
that could get bad
But [F]when I broke the industry
That's when I broke your heart
[Am]I was supposed to chart
and celebrate
But good things are [C]over fast
[F]I know it's hard to deal
with and see this
I tend [Am]to turn you off and switch
on my professional features
Then I [C]turn the music [F]off
And all I'm left with is to pick up my per[Am]sonal pieces,
Jesus
I never really want to be[C]lieve this
Got [F]advice from my dad and he
Told me that family [Am]is
all I'll ever have and need
I guess I'm unaware [C]of it
[F]Success is nothing if you have
no one there left to [Am]share it with

[Verse 4]
I don't love you, baby
I don't need [F]you, baby
[Am]I don't want you, no
[Em]Any [F]more
[Am]I don't love you, baby
I [F]don't need you, baby
I [Am]don't wanna love you, no
[Em]Anymore

[Verse 5]
[F]And since you[Am] left,
I've given up my days off
It's what I need to stay strong
I know you have a day job but
mine is 24 7
I feel like writing a book,
I guess I lied in the hook
'Cause I [F]still love you and I need
you by my [G]side if I could
[Am]The irony is if my career
and music didn't exist
[Em]In six years[F], yeah, you'd prob[Am]ably
be my wife with a kid
I'm frightened to think if I depend
on cider and drink
[F]And lighting a spliff I fall into
a [G]spiral and it's
[Am]Just hiding my misguiding thoughts
that I'm trying to kill
And I'd be [F]writing my will before I'm twenty [Am]sev en,
I'll die from a thrill
Go down in history as just a
[Em]wasted talent
[F]Can I face the challenge,
or did I make a mistake [Am]erasing?
It's only therapy,
my thoughts just [C]get ahead of me
[F]Eventually I'll be fine I know that it
was never [Am]meant to be
Either way I guess I'm not prepared,
[Em]but I'll say this
[F]These things happen for a reason
and you [Am]can't change shit
Take my apology,
I'm sorry for the [C]honesty
But I [F]had to get this off my chest
[Am]I don't love

[Verse 6]
you, baby
I don't [F]need you, baby
[Am]I don't want you, no
[Em]Any [F]more
[Am]I don't love you, baby
I don't [F]need you, baby
I [Am]don't wanna love you, no
[Em]Any [F]more, [Am]yeah
