I Know Better John Legend
[Verse 1]
They say sing [C]what you know, but I've sung [F]what they want[D5]
Some folks do [C]what they're told, but baby [F]this time I [D5]won't
Will [F]look through that [C]door, I know the [Dm]truth won't lie
Some [F]things I've done be[C]fore, I can't [Dm]justify
[Verse 2]
There are kings [C]in my past, things no one can [F]be proud of[D5]
But I stand in the [C]light I've cast, turned away from any [F]lack of love[D5]
Oh, and I [F]walked through that [C]door, I say [Dm]here I go
You see [F]me and nothing [C]more, I'm singing [Dm]what I know
[Cborus]
I know[C] better[C] [F]
I know[C] better[C] [F]
[Verse 3]
Legend is [C]just a name, I know better than to [F]be so proud[D5]
I won't dream in [C]all this fame, I'll take more love than [F]I'm allowed[D5]
I won't [F]have to cut it [C]off from where it [Dm]came
My [F]history has [C]brought me to this [Dm]place
This [F]power and the [C]color of my [Dm]face
[Cborus]
And I know[C] better[C] [F]
I know[C] better[C] [F]
[Bridge]
Oh, I'll [Am]rise from the [C]floor if I don't [F]win
I'll [Am]bust open that [C]door so let me [F]in
And the [Am]music chooses [C]me to sing, I [F]let her
I'll sing [Dm]what I know, [F]yes
[Cborus]
I know[C] better,[C] [F] oh
I know[C] better,[C] [F] yes
I know[C] better[C] [F]
I know[C] better[C] [F]
[Outro]
