I Know Better Chords by John Legend

I Know Better Chords by John Legend

[Verse 1]
                C
They say sing what you know
             F            Dm7
But I sang what they want
                C
Some folks do what they're told
               F           Dm7
But baby this time I won't
      F                  C                 
Will look through that door
             Dm        
I know the truth won't lie
       F                 C           Dm 
Some things I've done before I can't justify
               C
There are kings in my past
                  F6          Dm7
Things no one can be proud of
                    C
But I stand in the light I've casted
                    F6         Dm7
Turn away from any lack of love

[Pre-Chorus]
           F                   C
Oh, and I walked through that door
       Dm
I say here I go
         F              C
You see me and nothing more
              Dm
I'm singing what I know

[Chorus]
      C       F
I know better
      C       F
I know better

[Verse 2]
           C
Legend is just a name
                       F           Dm7
I know better than to be so proud
                 C
I won't dream in all this fame
                         F           Dm7
I'll take more love than I'm allowed

[Pre-Chorus]
         F             C                  Dm
I won't have to cut it off from where it came
    F            C                  Dm
My history has brought me to this place
      F           C           Dm
This [?] and the color of my face

[Chorus]
          C       F
And I know better
      C       F
I know better

[Bridge]
      Am              C              F6
I'll rise from the floor if I don't win
      Am             C             F6
I'll bust upon that door so let me in
         Am            C            F
And the music chooses me to sing I let her
            Dm          F  
I'll sing what I know, yes

[Chorus]
      C       F
I know better, oh
      C       F
I know better, yes
      C       F
I know better
      C       F
I know better

[Outro]
