VERSE ONE 
========= 
 
D-Dmaj7... 
I know this sounds like a joke but there ain't no time to smile 
                                                              A7/E-A7/F#... 
Two guys walk up straight into a bar for something strong with ice 
 
We both know who they is 
 
And it ain't so strange as it would seem 
 
For the man who does just what he should 
                    D-Dmaj7... 
And the man you want me to be 
 
 
VERSE TWO 
========= 
 
Well they size each other up through the smoke and the neon glow 
They ain't too sure where they met before in someone else's clothes 
It sure ain't a gambler's scene 
It's a dead set John Ford dream 
For the man who does just what he should 
And the man you want me to be 
 
 
BRIDGE ONE 
========== 
 
G 
Well you know they both dress real nice 
 
And they'd never tell a lie 
       E7 
They're straight up even when they're falling down 
         A7 
And they treat their ladies right

VERSE THREE 
=========== 
 
Well they don't cry at the drop of a note and they think the small things through 
They drink like it's a pleasure, they're consistent and not see through 
But I'm sure I've seen them sometimes 
Look like they don't know where they're sposed to be 
For the man who does just what he should 
And the man you want me to be 
 
 
BRIDGE TWO 
========== 
 
I'm angry sad and delirious 
Sometimes I feel my chest just cannot take this 
I want to be real tough 
But I'm made of different stuff 
 
 
VERSE FOUR 
========== 
 
I wanna buy those boys some drinks until their brains congeal 
Let their jaws go slack and see what secrets I can steal 
Cause even though they're staking me out 
Can't you see I've got one last shout 
To become the man who does what he should 
                   D-Dmaj7... 
And the man you want me to be 
The man you want me to be 
The man you want me to be 
 
End with Dadd5
