[Chorus]
F Em Am
A man is not his song
F Em Am
A song is a promise
F Em Am
If a man is just his song
F Em Am
Then the song is beyond us
[Verse 1]
F Em Am
How they, they make it up
Dsus2 C/G F
And it sends in deep elation
Em Am
Eventually it could let you down
Dsus2 C/G F
By believing in standing ovation
Em Am Dsus2 C/G F
Song won’t lift up if made by revenge, so oh sweet
Em Am
I will, will it
Dsus2 C/G
To add up to more than you or me
[Chorus]
F Em Am
'Cause a man is not his song
F Em Am
And I’m not a story
F Em Am
But I wanna sing along
F Em Am
If he’s singing it for me
[Verse 2]
Em Am Dsus2
That filament that flies by
C/G
And it brings yellow light from those yellow summers back
F Em Am
By coconut palm, snowy pine
Dsus2 C/G
I’ve heard years pass through my ears to hear otherwise
F Em Am
We all believe in old melodies
Dsus2 C/G
Carry tunes around like they carry me
[Instrumental]
Em C/G x4
[Bridge]
C/G Em
A man is not his song
Am F
(Though we all wanna sing along)
C/G Em
We’ve all heard those old melodies
Am
(Like they’re singing right to me)
[Outro]
F Em
More than a melody’s needed
Am F
More than a melody’s needed
Em Am
More than a melody’s needed
F Em
More than a melody’s needed...
F Em Am
A man is not his song
F Em Am
A song is a promise
F Em Am
If a man is just his song
F Em Am
Then the song is beyond us
[Verse 1]
F Em Am
How they, they make it up
Dsus2 C/G F
And it sends in deep elation
Em Am
Eventually it could let you down
Dsus2 C/G F

Song won’t lift up if made by revenge, so oh sweet
