Hi there! Here's Ed's latest release- "The Man".
here's the link-
Go buy it on itunes :) http://smarturl.it/x-itunesdlx
**UPDATE**
I changed the way I had this all labeled because a user just didn't understand it.
Even though many users before (and after) had no problem understanding the open chord
strumming, I agree it was a bit confusing. So those open strums are now chords
that are nearly open strums! Still plays right along, just like before :)
*I put the '( )' in just to note that the strumming emphasis is on the
open strings, not those in '( )'.

Em7* Am* G6* F*
[Verse 1]
Em7* Am Now I don't want to hate you G6* Just wish you'd never gone for the man F And waited two weeks at least Em7* Before you let him take you Am I stayed true G6* I kind of knew you liked the dude from private school F He's waiting for the time to move Em7* I knew he had his eyes on you Am He's not the right guy for you G6* Don't hate me cos I write the truth F No I would never lie to you Em7* But it was never fine to lose you Am And what a way to find out G6* F It never came from my mouth
You never changed your mind
Em7* Am But you were just afraid to find out G6* But f- it, I won't be changing the subject I love it F Em7* I'll make your little secret public its nothing Am I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with G6* F In your closet to get back at me
Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
Em7* Am G6* Fact is you're mad at me because I backtrack so casually F You're practically my family Em7* Am If we married then I'll guess you'd have to be G6* But tragically our love just lost the will to live F But would I kill to give it one more shot Em7* I think not
[Hook]
Am I don't love you baby G6* F I don't need you baby Em7* Am I don't want you no G6* F Any-more Em7* Am I don't love you baby G6* F I don't need you baby Em7* Am I don't want you no G6* F Any-more
[Verse 2]
Am
Recently I tend to zone outUp in my headphones to Holocene
G6* F You promised your body but I'm away so much Em7* Am I stay more celibate than in a monastery G6* Im not cut out for life on the road F Cos I didn't know I'd miss you this much Em7* Am And at the time we'd just go, so sue me G6* I guess I'm not the man that you need F Ever since you went to uni Em7* Am I've been sofa surfing with a rucksack G6* Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad F Em7* But when I broke the industry that's when I broke your heart Am I was supposed to chart and celebrate G6* But good things are over fast F I know it was hard to deal with and see this Em7* Am* I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features G6* F* Then I turn the music off Em7* Am And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus G6* I never really want to believe this F Got advice from my dad and he Em7* Am Told me that family is all I'll ever have and need G6* I guess I'm unaware of it F Em7* Success is nothing if you have no one left to share it with
[Hook]
Am I don't love you baby G6* F I don't need you baby Em7* Am I don't want you no G6* F Any-more Em7* Am I don't love you baby G6* F I don't need you baby Em7* Am I don't want you no G6* F Any-more
[Verse 3]
Em7* Am And since you left I've given up my days off G6* It's what I need to stay strong F Em7* I know you have a day job But mine is 24/7 Am G6* I fell like writing a book I guess I lied in the hook F Em7* Cos I still love you and I need you by my side if I could Am G6* The irony is if my career and music didn't exist F Em7* In six years yeah you'd probably be my wife with a kid Am G6* I'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink F Em7* And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it's Am G6* Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to kill F And I'd be writing my will before I'm 27 Em7* Am G6* I'll die from a thrill Go down in history as just a wasted talent F Em7* Am Can I face the challenge Or did I make a mistake erasing G6* It's only therapy My thoughts just get ahead of me F Em7* Am Eventually I'll be fine I know that it was never meant to be G6* Either way I guess I'm not prepared F But I'll say this: Em7* Am* These things happen for a reason and you can't change G6* Take my apology I'm sorry for the honesty F* But I had to get this off my chest
[Hook]
Am I don't love you baby G6* F I don't need you baby Em7* Am I don't want you no G6* F Any-more Em7* Am I don't love you baby G6* F I don't need you baby Em7* Am I don't want you no G6* F Any-more
Em7* Am G6* F.... repeats and fades out
