Taylor Swift - The Man

[ 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 drinking and 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 )
