Better man (video)

Em - G - D - Em

1. I'm bringing out my best impression

of seven-year-old me in confession

D Em

it's never more appropriate than now.

Em

An open book, I'll open up if you do

G

nothing to hide and very little to lose

D Em

it feels to me like things are on the change

C Em D

I'm trying to be a better man, whatever that is,

C Em D

it's slightly disconcerting, no direction, no set plan.

C Em D

I'm trying to be a better man, whatever that is,

C

nobody's perfect, nobody's perfect.

D Em

Go on, give us a hand, give us a hand !

+ Em - G - D - Em

2. Another day, another gratitude list,

remembering the Amazon, November, when we kissed,

D Em

pages filled with rhymes and better times.

Em

Finding a lover and losing them to fate,

G

finding another, thank your lucky stars, mate,

D Em

you do not know how lucky you are !

C Em D

I'm trying to be a better man, whatever that is,

C Em D

it's slightly disconcerting, no direction, no set plan.

C Em D

I'm trying to be a better man, whatever that is,

C

nobody's perfect, nobody's perfect.

D Em

Go on, give us a hand, give us a hand !

+ Em - G - D - Em

Am

+ A helping hand to understand

Bm

that I need to breathe, it's time to leave

C

this wonderland of wedding bands

D

and everyone in-between.

+ CHORUS
