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
