Fm                    D#                   C  C#
Soft as a shadow and strong as a drink I like
Fm                     D#                   C  C# D#
Cold as my dollars and warm as the waves I ride

          C                       C#
You can meet me outside, take a bruising
to the pride
          C                           C#
Wouldn't kick it when you're down but I hate
it when you lie
          C                           C#
Tried to make me lose my cool and you thought
I wouldn't run
       C                        C#
Every time I get a chance, baby I'm a better man

           Fm                     D#
'Cause I'm soft as a shadow and strong
              G# C#
as a drink I like
Fm                     D#                   G# C#
Cold as my dollars and warm as the waves I ride

Chorus:
         C        C# D#
I'm the better man
         C        C# D#
I'm the better man
         C        C# D#
I'm the better man
         C        C# D#
I'm the better man

Out of my head, but you make me this way, I swear
Rose-tinted glasses, but trust me, I'm seeing red

Took the confidence I had
You can watch me take it back
I'm the future and the past
That's a perfect hourglass
Tried to make me lose my cool
Hold my karma in my hands
Every time I get a chance
Baby, I'm a better man

'Cause I'm soft as a shadow and strong as a drink
I like
Cold as my dollars and warm as the waves I ride
'Cause I'm soft as a shadow and strong as a drink
I like
Cold as my dollars and warm as the waves I ride
