                 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

F
I'd be a fearless leader
G
I'd be an alpha type
C
When everyone believes ya
Am
What's that like?

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

                   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

F                                            G
And they would toast to me, oh, let the players play
C                       Am
I'd be just like Leo in Saint Tropez

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

                                          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

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)

Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (Hey)

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)
