ELLIE GOULDING
"Better Man"

[Intro:]
Soft as a shadow and strong as a drink I like
Cold as my dollars and warm as the waves I ride

You can meet me outside
Take a bruising to the pride
Wouldn't kick it when you're down
But I hate it when you lie
Tried to make me lose my cool
And you thought I wouldn't run
Every time I get a chance
Baby, I'm a better man

[Pre-Chorus:]
'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

[Chorus:]
I'm the better man
I'm the better man
I'm the better man
I'm the better man

[Bridge:]
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

[Pre-Chorus:]
'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

[Chorus:]
I'm the better man
I'm the better man
I'm the better man
I'm the better man
