     A Bigger Man







[INTRO]

E E6 E E6 E6 E6 Ñ…2 

[VERSE 1]

E                    E6
As I look out at the window, 
E                     E6 
The first thing that I see 
E                   E6
Is a shadow-like reflection 
B
Looking back at me. 
B7
Cause all the lights are turned on 
And the night is dark outside, 
F#m
The window's like a mirror 
                A       E  E6  E  E6
For the things I keep inside. 

[VERSE 2]

E                    E6
I feel scared of how I blend in
E                       E6 
With the silence of the night; 
E                     E6 
The curtains start to move 
      B
As I pull them from the right, 
B7
And closing off the image 
Of the ghost that looks like me 
   F#m
I wonder if the man I am 
    A            E  E6  E  E6
Is all I'll ever be 

[CHORUS 1] 

E            E6   Emaj7  
Cause I used to dream 
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day, 
F#m
Me and my guitar 
       A
In a chauffeur-driven car 
        E  E6  E  E6
All the way... 
E          E6   Emaj7
Yet I used to dream 
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day, 
F#m
But I guess for most of us 
              A
It's just a chauffeur-driven bus, 
           E  E6  E  E6
What can I say? 


[VERSE 3]

E                    E6
And sunny days are plenty, 
E                   E6
I feel lucky to be here. 
E                       E6   
The girl that sleeps beside me 
B
Gets more pretty every year. 
B7
But every now and then 
A cloudy day comes by, 
F#m
Something I remember 
       A              E  E6  E  E6
But I can't remember why. 

[CHORUS 2]: 

E            E6   Emaj7  
Cause I used to dream 
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day, 
F#m
Me and my guitar 
           A
They’d be handing out cigars 
        E  E6  E  E6
All the way... 
E            E6   Emaj7  
Yet I used to dream 
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day, 
F#m
But I guess when I will come, 
              A
It's just an evening down the pub, 
           E  E6  E  E6
What can I say? 

[VERSE 4]

E                                 E6
And there's one more thing that strikes me 
E                   E6 
As I put away this song - 
E                      E6 
That's just no way to tell 
B
If you chose right or you chose wrong. 
B7
So look at your reflection 
In the window if you can, 
F#m
And try to see the world outside, 
       A             E  E6  E  E6 
You'll be the bigger man. 


[CHORUS 1] 

E            E6   Emaj7  
Cause I used to dream 
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day, 
F#m
Me and my guitar 
       A
In a chauffeur-driven car 
        E  E6  E  E6
All the way... 
E          E6   Emaj7
Yet I used to dream 
                       E         E6  E  E6
That I'd take over the world one day, 
F#m
But I guess for most of us 
              A
It's just a chauffeur-driven bus, 
           E  E6  E  E6
What can I say?
