D#              A#
If you know my name
                    Gm
Why are you calling out
      Cm
To an old love?
      D#      F
To an old love?
D#                A#
When you need someone
                   Gm
Why do you always run?
         Cm
To your lord up above?
         D#           F
To your lord up above?

Chorus:
Gm      D7            D#   A#
I just want to understand you
Gm       D7              D#      F
I don't need to be your man in blue

Your days all the same
Prayers like drops of rain
As  you wait for the flood
To cleanse everyone
Can you hear my voice?
In a high, lonesome rejoice
Sing a song for you
In and out of tune

Chorus:
Gm      D7            D#   A#
I just want to understand you
Gm       D7              D#      F
I don't need to be your man in blue
Gm      A#                  D#           Cm
I just want you to see yourself the way I do
A#       Gm              D#     A#
I don't need to be your man in blue
A#           Gm             D#           A#
No, I don't need to be your man, man in blue
