G              Am
Some things make me so blue
  G              Am
Don't know what to do
  C               D
Things don't turn out as planned
  C               D
I wanna be a better man

  G              Am
Last day home today
  G              Am
Wish these tears would go away
  C                    D
I don't see any of you will understand
  C                 D
I wanna be a better man

[Chorus]

  C                   G
When I come up to my brother
  C            G
He lend me his hand
    C                    G
And when I come up to my mother
 Am
She says "Son, don't be sad
                                    D
Life ain't long so do the best you can"
                         G
Oh, I wanna be a better man

[Verse]

G                   Am
I know that life is short
G                   Am
Know we can't stay long
C                   D
But one thing's for sure
C                   D
I know that I'll be strong

[Chorus]

C                    G
When I come up to my brother
C              G
He lend me his hand
C                        G
And when I come up to my mother
Am
She says "Son, don't be sad
                                   D
Life ain't long so do the best you can"
                        Am D C G Am D
Oh, I wanna be a better man
                   G  Am D
(Wanna be a better man)
                   G Am D
(Wanna be a better man)

[Verse]

G                   Am
I know that life is short
G                   Am
Know we can't stay long
G                   Am
But one thing's for sure
G                   Am
I know that I'll be strong
