[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
          Em
There's a man on TV, at a desk and a suit
   C
He lies through his teeth and they still call it the news
          G
There's a man in a whit coat, who's medicine kills
   D
He loves when you're sick, 'cause you pay for his pills
          Em
There's a man at the bank, who will give you a loan
           C
So, you'll buy a house, and then he'll take your home
          G
There's a man who wants you spending your life online
              D
'Cause you're searching for truth, but controls what you find
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
         Em                            C
We'll be fine bae, if we don't make it through
          G                                                 D
There's a man, in the church, who I really hope told me the truth
 
 
[Chorus]
                          Em                        C
Said there's a man in the sky, watching over me and you
                         G                      D
It don't help if you can fly, it's way past the moon
            Em
And there's men here on the ground, who just want to burn it down
          C
They want money, they want power, don't want anyone else allowed
         G                             D
We'll be fine bae, I'll be the man for you
 
 
[Verse 2]
          Em
There's a man in the courts, sworn to uphold the law
         C
But he's crooked as a fencepost, and don't do his job
          G
There's a man in the classroom, who should know the facts
         D
But he's brainwashin' kids, teaching English in Math
          Em
There's a man in your phone, who hears everything you say
         C
He knows everywhere you go, every joke you ever made
          G
There's a man with a bloodline, that owns the whole world
      D
Every airplane, and building, and every gold brick, and pearl
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
         Em                            C
We'll be fine bae, if we don't make it through
          G                                                 D
There's a man, in the church, who I really hope told me the truth
 
 
[Chorus]
                          Em                        C
Said there's a man in the sky, watching over me and you
                         G                      D
It don't help if you can fly, it's way past the moon
            Em
And there's men here on the ground, who just want to burn it down
          C
They want money, they want power, don't want anyone else allowed
         G                             D
We'll be fine bae, I'll be the man for you
 
 
[Bridge]
              Em
Pray that the man in the skies, watching over us tonight
               C
'Cause there's people looking down on us for fighting for what's right
         G                             D
Hold the line bae, and I'll hold on to you
          Em
There's a man in the clouds, and I hope he's looking down
               C
'Cause there's people here on Earth who tryna put us in the ground
         G                           D
We'll be fine bae, I won't let go of you
 
 
[Out-Chorus]
                          Em                        C
Said there's a man in the sky, watching over me and you
                         G                      D
It don't help if you can fly, it's way past the moon
            Em
And there's men here on the ground, who just want to burn it down
          C
They want money, they want power, don't want anyone else allowed
         G                             D    Em
We'll be fine bae, I'll be the man for you
