C
Boy, if you want my heart,
          D              Em   G
You gotta take it like a man,
           C
Before you fight for us,
D                          Am  G
You gotta show me that you can.


[Verse 1]
C                                   D       Em
They say it's better to love and to lose it all,
                                    G
I didn't learn how to fly without a heavy fall,
C                   D              Am  G
I went from A to Z, blew off reality,
C                                        D
So if my love is a game, then you should learn the rules,
Em                                    G
You take it all and leave then wonder why you lose,
C                       D             Am     G
It takes a wiser man to figure out my hand.


[Pre-Chorus]
     C                            D     Em
I've been in love and through the other side,
Em                  G
Seen the other side,
    C            D                   Am
I'm not about to fall into another tonight,
Am
So get it right.


[Chorus]
            C
Boy, if you want my heart,
          D              Em   G
You gotta take it like a man,
           C
Before you fight for us,
D                          Am  G
You gotta show me that you can.
            C
So when the lights go dark,
        D             Em   G
I wanna know you understand,
            C
That if you want my heart,
D                        Am  G
You gotta take it like a man.


[Verse 2]
C
I've seen and done it all,
             D
I've been misunderstood,
Em                                  D
But tell me what could be bad about feeling good,
C
It's all or nothing now,
       D                Am  G
'Cause fate don't wait around.


[Pre-Chorus]
     C                            D     Em
I've been in love and through the other side,
Em                  G
Seen the other side,
    C            D                   Am
I'm not about to fall into another tonight,
Am
So get it right.


[Chorus]
            C
Boy, if you want my heart,
          D              Em   G
You gotta take it like a man,
           C
Before you fight for us,
D                          Am  G
You gotta show me that you can.
            C
So when the lights go dark,
        D             Em   G
I wanna know you understand,
            C
That if you want my heart,
D                        Am  G
You gotta take it like a man.


[Break]
C                  D
Sometimes it feels,
Em                  G        Em
Like we've got everything to prove,
Em        D
We make believe,
       Am                     G
But we rise again to face the truth,
C                           D
On and on, on and on, we're going,
Em                         G
On and on, on and on, it's growing,
C                 D            Am
On and on, on and on, only the real,
N.C.
No deal.


[Chorus]
            C
Boy, if you want my heart,
          D              Em   G
You gotta take it like a man,
           C
Before you fight for us,
D                          Am  G
You gotta show me that you can.
            C
So when the lights go dark,
        D             Em   G
I wanna know you understand,
            C
That if you want my heart,
D                        Am
You gotta take it like a man.


[Outro]
    G       C
How does it feel when we do it better?
D          Em
So get the love that's in your heart,
G           C              D
How does it feel? We do it better!
         Am
We do it better!
G           C
How does it feel when we do it better?
D          Em
So get the love that's in your heart,
G           C              D
How does it feel? We do it better!
         Am
We do it better!
G           C
How does it feel when we do it better?
D          Em
So get the love that's in your heart,
G           C              D
How does it feel? We do it better!
         Am
We do it better!
