Title: Mister You're a Better Man Than I Artist: Jeff Beckf
I worked this out from a scratchy tape of a record. I'm not Sure of the key -- I could be off by a half step, but it seems to Make sense. The solo sounded like it was over G instead of over a Progression, but I didn't spend much time on it.
Commnets, corrections, and additions are welcome.
MISTER YOU'RE A BETTER MAN THAN I Jeff Beck [email protected]
The whole song uses e-form barre chords
Verse
Can you judge a man By the way he wears his hair Can you read his mind By the clothes that he wears Can you see a bad man By the pattern on his tie
Chorus
Well then mister you're a better man than I 4x (after 4th repeat)
Verse
Could you tell a wise man By the way he speaks or spells Is this more important Than the stories that he tells And call a man a fool If for wealth he doesn't strive
Chorus
Solo over G
Verse
You condemn a man If you faith he doesn't hold You say the color of his skin Is the color of his soul Could you say that men For king and country all must die?
