Hi there! Here's Ed's latest release- "The Man".
here's the link-

Go buy it on itunes :) http://smarturl.it/x-itunesdlx
**UPDATE**
I changed the way I had this all labeled because a user just didn't understand it.
Even though many users before (and after) had no problem understanding the open chord
strumming, I agree it was a bit confusing. So those open strums are now chords
that are nearly open strums! Still plays right along, just like before :)
*I put the '( )' in just to note that the strumming emphasis is on the
open strings, not those in '( )'.

[Em7]* [Am]* [G6]* [F]*
Verse 1
[Em7]* [Am]
Now I don't want to hate you
[G6]*
Just wish you'd never gone for the man
[F]
And waited two weeks at least
[Em7]*
Before you let him take you
[Am]
I stayed true
[G6]*
I kind of knew you liked the dude from private school
[F]
He's waiting for the time to move
[Em7]*
I knew he had his eyes on you
[Am]
He's not the right guy for you
[G6]*
Don't hate me cos I write the truth
[F]
No I would never lie to you
[Em7]*
But it was never fine to lose you
[Am]
And what a way to find out
[G6]* [F]
It never came from my mouth
You never changed your mind
[Em7]* [Am]
But you were just afraid to find out
[G6]*
But f- it, I won't be changing the subject I love it
[F] [Em7]*
I'll make your little secret public its nothing
[Am]
I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with
[G6]* [F]
In your closet to get back at me
Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
[Em7]* [Am] [G6]*
Fact is you're mad at me because I backtrack so casually
[F]
You're practically my family
[Em7]* [Am]
If we married then I'll guess you'd have to be
[G6]*
But tragically our love just lost the will to live
[F]
But would I kill to give it one more shot
[Em7]*
I think not
Hook
[Am]
I don't love you baby
[G6]* [F]
I don't need you baby
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't want you no
[G6]* [F]
Any-more
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't love you baby
[G6]* [F]
I don't need you baby
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't want you no
[G6]* [F]
Any-more
Verse 2
[Am]
Recently I tend to zone out
Up in my headphones to Holocene
[G6]* [F]
You promised your body but I'm away so much
[Em7]* [Am]
I stay more celibate than in a monastery
[G6]*
Im not cut out for life on the road
[F]
Cos I didn't know I'd miss you this much
[Em7]* [Am]
And at the time we'd just go, so sue me
[G6]*
I guess I'm not the man that you need
[F]
Ever since you went to uni
[Em7]* [Am]
I've been sofa surfing with a rucksack
[G6]*
Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad
[F] [Em7]*
But when I broke the industry that's when I broke your heart
[Am]
I was supposed to chart and celebrate
[G6]*
But good things are over fast
[F]
I know it was hard to deal with and see this
[Em7]* [Am]*
I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features
[G6]* [F]*
Then I turn the music off
[Em7]* [Am]
And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus
[G6]*
I never really want to believe this
[F]
Got advice from my dad and he
[Em7]* [Am]
Told me that family is all I'll ever have and need
[G6]*
I guess I'm unaware of it
[F] [Em7]*
Success is nothing if you have no one left to share it with
Hook
[Am]
I don't love you baby
[G6]* [F]
I don't need you baby
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't want you no
[G6]* [F]
Any-more
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't love you baby
[G6]* [F]
I don't need you baby
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't want you no
[G6]* [F]
Any-more
Verse 3
[Em7]* [Am]
And since you left I've given up my days off
[G6]*
It's what I need to stay strong
[F] [Em7]*
I know you have a day job But mine is 24/7
[Am] [G6]*
I fell like writing a book I guess I lied in the hook
[F] [Em7]*
Cos I still love you and I need you by my side if I could
[Am] [G6]*
The irony is if my career and music didn't exist
[F] [Em7]*
In six years yeah you'd probably be my wife with a kid
[Am] [G6]*
I'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink
[F] [Em7]*
And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it's
[Am] [G6]*
Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to kill
[F]
And I'd be writing my will before I'm 27
[Em7]* [Am] [G6]*
I'll die from a thrill Go down in history as just a wasted talent
[F] [Em7]* [Am]
Can I face the challenge Or did I make a mistake erasing
[G6]*
It's only therapy My thoughts just get ahead of me
[F] [Em7]* [Am]
Eventually I'll be fine I know that it was never meant to be
[G6]*
Either way I guess I'm not prepared
[F]
But I'll say this:
[Em7]* [Am]*
These things happen for a reason and you can't change
[G6]*
Take my apology I'm sorry for the honesty
[F]*
But I had to get this off my chest
Hook
[Am]
I don't love you baby
[G6]* [F]
I don't need you baby
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't want you no
[G6]* [F]
Any-more
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't love you baby
[G6]* [F]
I don't need you baby
[Em7]* [Am]
I don't want you no
[G6]* [F]
Any-more
[Em7]* [Am] [G6]* [F].... repeats and fades out
