[Verse 1]
A D E
I know something you don’t
D A
You’ll have to trust me on this
A D E
The way you think that you want me
D
Honey, it don’t exist
B D
I know you stand in the light
E
And you try to be seen
D
Babe I see you and more
E A D E
Come on now listen to me
D A D E D
So listen to me
A D
I looked at someone
E D A
The same way you say you see me
A D E
And I stood in the light
D
Hoping I would be seen
B D
God when he sang about it
E
I’d be happy to die
D
Two gins and ten songs
E A
I must have cried the whole night

[Chorus]
A D E D
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan (Just be a fan)
A D E D
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan
A D
You might ache till you’re mad
B
But you’d lose what you had
D E A D E
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan
D A D E D
So just be a fan

[Verse 2]
A D E
We connected in town
D A
Small talk coffee on me
D E
My hands shook under the table
D
Can’t believe that he speaks
B D
Sounded just like the record
E
When he laid out his year
D
Pretended I didn’t notice
E A
Thought that that would be weird

[Chorus]
A D E D
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan (Just be a fan)
A D E D
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan
A D
You imagine a scene
B
But it’s only a dream
D E A D E
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan
D A D E D
So just be a fan

[Verse 3]
A D E
As it turns out that song
D A
Didn’t mean what I thought
D E
I wish that I didn’t know
D
Yeah I preferred it before
B D
I try to cry like I used to
E
When I think of him now
D
But all that comes up
E A
Is awkward coffee in town

[Chorus]
D E D
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan (Just be a fan)
A D E D
Yeah it’s better to just be a fan
A D
I’d fill in all of the cracks
B
And you’d just want me back
D E
Yeah it’s better to just be
D E
You’ll have to trust me
D E A D E
It’s better to just be a fan
D A D E D A
So just be a fan
