Chords

[Verse 1]
           F                   G
I would be complex, I would be cool

             C                                   Am
They'd say I played the field before I found someone to commit to

                  F              G
And that would be okay for me to do

      C                                 Am
Every conquest I had made would make me more of a boss to you
[Pre-Chorus]
F
 I'd be a fearless leader

G
 I'd be an alpha type

C
 When everyone believes ya

Am
 What's that like?
[Chorus]
F                         G
I'm so sick of running as fast as I can

C                                      Am
 Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man

    F                          G
And I'm so sick of them coming at me again

          C                 Am
'Cause if I was a man, then I'd be the man

           F   G
I'd be the man

           C   Am
I'd be the man
[Verse 2]
             F                   G
They'd say I hustled, put in the work

              C                                       Am
They wouldn't shake their heads and question how much of this I deserve

           F                 G
What I was wearing, if I was rude

             C                       Am
Could all be separated from my good ideas and power moves
[Pre-Chorus]
F                             G
 And they would toast to me, oh, let the players play

C                   Am
 I'd be just like Leo in Saint Tropez
[Chorus]
F                         G
I'm so sick of running as fast as I can

C                                      Am
 Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man

    F                          G
And I'm so sick of them coming at me again

          C                 Am
'Cause if I was a man, then I'd be the man

           F   G
I'd be the man

           C   Am
I'd be the man
[Bridge]
                             F
What's it like to brag about raking in dollars

            G
And getting bitches and models?

             C
And it's all good if you're bad

          Am
And it's okay if you're mad

             F                             G
If I was out flashing my dollars, I'd be a bitch not a baller

                C
They'd paint me out to be bad

          Am
So, it's okay that I'm mad
[Chorus]
F                         G
I'm so sick of running as fast as I can

C                                      Am
 Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (You know that)

    F                          G
And I'm so sick of them coming at me again (Coming at me again)

          C
'Cause if I was a man (If I was a man)

     Am
Then I'd be the man (Then I'd be the man)

F                         G
I'm so sick of running as fast as I can (As fast as I can)

C                                      Am
 Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (Hey)

    F                          G
And I'm so sick of them coming at me again (Coming at me again)

          C                                  Am
'Cause if I was a man (If I was a man), then I'd be the man

           F   G
I'd be the man

           C       Am
I'd be the man (Oh)

           F         G
I'd be the man (Yeah)

           C   Am
I'd be the man (I'd be the man)
[Outro] N.C. If I was a man, then I'd be the man
