The Man chords by Ed Sheeran
Verse 1
Am
Em
F
Am
Em
F
Now I
Am
don't wanna hate you
Just wish you'd never gone
Em
for the man
Am
And waited two weeks at least
Before you let him take you
I stayed true
I kind of knew you liked the dude
Em
from private school
F
He's waiting for the time to move
Am
I knew he had his eyes on you
He's not the right guy for you
G
Don't hate me cause I write the truth
Am
F
No I would never lie to you
G
Am
But it was never fine to lose you
And what a way to find out
F
It never came from my mouth
You never changed your mind
Am
But you were just afraid to mind out
But fuck it, I won't be changing
Em
the subject I love it
F
I'll make your little secret pub
Am
lic it's nothing
I'm just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep
Em
F
with in your closet to get back at me
Am
Trapped and I'm lacking sleep
F
Fact is you're mad at me because
Am
Em
I backtrack so cas ually
Am
You're practically my family
If we married then I'll guess
you'd have to be
But tragically our love
F
just lost the will to live
But would I kill to give it one more shot
Am
I think not
Verse 2
I don't love you, baby
F
I don't need you, baby
Am
I don't want you, no
Em
F
Any more
Am
I don't love you, baby
F
I don't need you, baby
Am
I don't wanna love you, no
Em
F
Anymore

Verse 3
Am
Recently I tend to zone out
F
Up in my headphones to
Am
Holocene
F
You promised your body
but I'm away so much
Am
I stay more celibate than in
a monastery
I'm not cut out for life on the road
Em
F
'Cause I didn't know
I'd miss you this much
Am
And at the time we'd just go,
so sue me
F
I guess I'm not the man that you need
Ever since you went to uni
Am
I've been sofa surfing with
a rucksack
Full of less cash and I guess
that could get bad
F
But when I broke the industry
That's when I broke your heart
Am
I was supposed to chart
and celebrate
C
But good things are over fast
F
I know it's hard to deal
with and see this
Am
I tend to turn you off and switch
on my professional features
C
F
Then I turn the music off
Am
And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces,
Jesus
C
I never really want to believe this
F
Got advice from my dad and he
Am
Told me that family is
all I'll ever have and need
C
I guess I'm unaware of it
F
Success is nothing if you have
Am
no one there left to share it with
Verse 4
I don't love you, baby
F
I don't need you, baby
Am
I don't want you, no
Em
F
Any more
Am
I don't love you, baby
F
I don't need you, baby
Am
I don't wanna love you, no
Em
Anymore
Verse 5
F
Am
And since you left,
I've given up my days off
It's what I need to stay strong
I know you have a day job but
mine is 24 7
I feel like writing a book,
I guess I lied in the hook
F
'Cause I still love you and I need
G
you by my side if I could
Am
The irony is if my career
and music didn't exist
Em
F
Am
In six years, yeah, you'd probably
be my wife with a kid
I'm frightened to think if I depend
on cider and drink
F
And lighting a spliff I fall into
G
a spiral and it's
Am
Just hiding my misguiding thoughts
that I'm trying to kill
F
Am
And I'd be writing my will before I'm twenty sev en,
I'll die from a thrill
Go down in history as just a
Em
wasted talent
F
Can I face the challenge,
Am
or did I make a mistake erasing?
It's only therapy,
C
my thoughts just get ahead of me
F
Eventually I'll be fine I know that it
Am
was never meant to be
Either way I guess I'm not prepared,
Em
but I'll say this
F
These things happen for a reason
Am
and you can't change shit
Take my apology,
C
I'm sorry for the honesty
F
But I had to get this off my chest
Am
I don't love
Verse 6
you, baby
F
I don't need you, baby
Am
I don't want you, no
Em
F
Any more
Am
I don't love you, baby
F
I don't need you, baby
Am
I don't wanna love you, no
Em
F
Am
Any more, yeah
