(verse 1)
G5          D5                      E5 - C5
I saw some old friends the other day
G5                    D5
and all they could talk about 
    E5              C5
was how I?ve changed
 E5                      D5 
They thought I?d be the last one 
C5                D5
to ever settle down
E5                       D5
They can?t believe I?m flying so high
     C5                    D5
with both feet on the ground



(chorus)
G5        D5        E5           C5
You make me wanna be, a better man,
G5        D5        E5             C5
You make me wanna do, the best I can,
E5                  D5
I feel a little stronger,
      G5         D5       C5
Every time you hold my hand,
G5        E5      D5             G5
You make me wanna be, a better man,


(verse 2)
Now there was a time,
When I ran wild as the Texas wind,
Never slowing down enough,
To ever let that party end,
Oh then your love surrounded me,
Like a shelter from the storm ,
oh baby you believed in me,
Like no one has before, and,


(chorus)
G5        D5        E5           C5
You make me wanna be, a better man,
G5        D5        E5             C5
You make me wanna do, the best I can,
E5                  D5
I feel a little stronger,
      G5         D5       C5
Every time you hold my hand,
G5        E5      D5             G5
You make me wanna be, a better man,




(bridge)
E5                     B5
And you know sometimes I stumble
  C5              G5
Yeah, everybody does
E5                               B5
But you keep me reaching for the man I can be
C5                  D5
And not the man I was.....

(ending)
E5                  D5
I feel a little stronger,
      G5         D5       C5
Every time you hold my hand,
G5                 D5             G5
You make me wanna be, a better man,
          E5       G5         D5
Oh, Baby, you make me wanna be
           G5
a better man
