Feist - A Man Is Not His Song Chords

[Chorus]
                      F  Em  Am
 A man is not his song 
                      F  Em  Am
 A song is a promise
                       F  Em  Am
 If a man is just his song
                          F  Em  Am
 Then the song is beyond us

[Verse 1]
F            Em             Am
  How they, they make it up
         Dsus2          C   F
  And it sends in deep elation
             Em                  Am
  Eventually it could let you down
          Dsus2          C   F
  By believing in standing ovation
        Em          Am        Dsus2      C         F
  Song won't lift up if made by revenge, so oh sweet
        Em          Am
  I will, will it
               Dsus2            C
  To add up to more than you or me

[Chorus]
                      F  Em  Am
 'Cause a man is not his song
                    F  Em  Am
  And I'm not a story
                      F  Em  Am
  But I wanna sing along
                          F  Em  Am
  If he's singing it for me

[Verse 2]
Em             Am            Dsus2 
  That filament that flies by
          C
  And it brings yellow light from those yellow summers back
F          Em             Am
  By coconut palm, snowy pine
           Dsus2                   C
  I've heard years pass through my ears to hear otherwise
F                   Em        Am
  We all believe in old melodies
        Dsus2                      C
  Carry tunes around like they carry me

[Instrumental]
Em C x4
 
[Bridge]
    C              Em  
  A man is not his song
              Am             F
  (Though we all wanna sing along)
            C                     Em  
  We've all heard those old melodies
                 Am              
  (Like they're singing right to me)

[Outro]
  F                    Em   
  More than a melody's needed
  Am                   F
  More than a melody's needed
  Em                   Am
  More than a melody's needed
  F                    Em
  More than a melody's needed...
