[Intro]
B7  B7  B7  E
 
 
[Verse 1]
E
I know you're up at night
A                E
Cause I hear you walking
B7
When you gently close the door
             E
We should be talking
 
 
[Verse 2]
E
I want to get to you
A             E
But baby once again
B7
I get to feeling useless
B7   E
So I pretend
 
 
[Chorus 1]
E                A               E
I've got to be a better man than that
E            A                       E
I swear I'll listen and I won't talk back
E                    A             E
I've got to hold you closer than I do
E                A             B7
I've got to be a better man to you
 
 
[Verse 3]
E
I know you need my love
A                   E
But it's so hard to show
B7
What's in my heart I keep locked up
E
I can't let go
 
 
[Verse 4]
E
So hear me when I say
A           E
I'll always love you
B7
I won't hold anything
E
Above you
 
 
[Chorus 2]
E                A               E
I've got to be a better man than that
E            A                       E
I swear I'll listen and I won't talk back
E               A                      E
And I've got to hold you closer than I do
E                A             B7
I've got to be a better man to you

B7 B7 E  C#m
 
 
[Verse 5]
C#m
I'm the kind of guy
B
As stubborn as can be
C#m
Keeps it all inside
C#m        B
I make you pull it out of me
 
 
[Chorus 3]
E                A               E
I've got to be a better man than that
E            A                       E
I swear I'll listen and I won't talk back
E                    A             E
I've got to hold you closer than I do
E                B7            E
I've got to be a better man to you
 
 
[Chorus 4]
E                A               E
I've got to be a better man than that
E            A                       E
I swear I'll listen and I won't talk back
E                        A             E
And I've got to hold you closer than I do
E                B7            E
I've got to be a better man to you
E
To you
