Ash Bowers, Better Man Than You Tabs
Artist/Band: Bowers Ash Tabs
Song: Better Man Than You Tab
Verse:
G Cadd9
She was always in the kitchen before the sun came up
Em7 D Cadd9
To get us fed, to get us dressed, and get us on the bus
G Cadd9
Another day of working late to get us in the bed by nine
Em7 D Cadd9
Another night we’d wonder why you were gone with no goodbye
Am G C
Its been almost 20 years ago
Am G C D
Since you ran out and left us on our own
Chorus:
Cadd9 D G
And not a day goes by
Cadd9 D G
That I don’t try to make sense out of all of this
Cadd9 D G
Why you never called
Cadd9 D G
Or came around at all and raise your kids like mama did
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em7
She didn’t work on cars or show off scars from a fight in some bar room
Cadd9 D G Cadd9
But when it came to me she was a better man than you
Verse:
G Cadd9
Yea she taught me how to tie my shoes and how to drive my truck
Em7 D Cadd9
She’d always know I was getting low and slide me 20 bucks
G Cadd9
I thought that I might see you on my graduation day
Em7 D Cadd9
But sure enough when I looked up it was just my mama’s face
Am G C
I turned out fine but I coulda used your help
Am G C D
Man I don’t know how you’re living with yourself
Chorus:
Cadd9 D G
And not a day goes by
Cadd9 D G
That I don’t try to make sense out of all of this
Cadd9 D G
Why you never called
Cadd9 D G
Or came around at all and raise your kids like mama did
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em7
She didn’t work on cars or show off scars from a fight in some bar room
Cadd9 D G Cadd9
But when it came to me she was a better man than you
Bridge:
Am C G
She filled the shoes you never wore when this world got me down
Am C G
She was always there to pick me up when my feet weren’t on the ground
Em D G G/F# Em7
She always said you can’t get ahead when you’re running from the truth
Cadd9 D G
But when it came to me she was a better man than you
Cadd9 D G
But when it came to me she was a better man than you
Cadd9 G
