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

They’d say I [C]played the field before I found [Am]someone to commit to

That would be [F]okay for me to [G]do

Every [C]conquest I had made would make me [Am]more of a boss to you

 

[F]I’d be a fearless [G]leader I’d be an alpha type

[C]When everyone believes [Am]you What’s that like?

 

[F]I’m so sick of running as [G]fast as I can

[C]Wondering if I’d get there quicker [Am]if I was a man

And [F]I’m so sick of them [G]coming at me again

‘Cause if[C]I was a man, then [Am]I’d be the man

I’d be the [F]man[G] I’d be the [C]man[Am]

 

They say I [F]hustled, put in the [G]work

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

What I was [F]wearing, if I was [G]rude

Could I be [C]separated from my good [Am]ideas and power moves?

 

[F]And they would toast to me [G]or let the players play

[C]I’d be just like [Am]Leo in Saint Tropez

 

[F]I’m so sick of running as [G]fast as I can

[C]Wondering if I’d get there quicker [Am]if I was a man

And [F]I’m so sick of them [G]coming at me again

‘Cause if[C]I was a man, then [Am]I’d be the man

I’d be the [F]man[G] I’d be the [C]man[Am]

 

Would you like to worry about [F]drinkin’ and dollars?

And getting [G]b*tches and models?

And it’s so [C]good if you’re bad

And it’s [Am]okay if you’re mad

If I was out [F]flashing my dollars I’d be a [G]b*tch not a baller

They’d paint me [C]out to be bad

So, it’s [Am]okay that I’m mad

 

[F]I’m so sick of running as [G]fast as I can

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

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

‘Cause if[C]I was a man (If I was a man), then [Am]I’d be the man (Then I’d be the man)

 

[F]I’m so sick of running as [G]fast as I can (As fast as I can)

[C]Wondering if I’d get there quicker [Am]if I was a man (Hey!)

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

‘Cause if[C]I was a man, then [Am]I’d be the man (If I was a man)

I’d be the [F]man[G] I’d be the [C]man[Am] (Oh)

I’d be the [F]man[G] I’d be the [C]man[Am] (I’d be the man)

[F]If I was [G]a man, [C]I’d be the [Am]man
