A They say sing what you know D Bm7 But I've sung what they want A Some folks do what they're told D Bm7 But baby this time I won't D A Will look through that door Bm I know the truth from lie D A Bm Some things I've done before I can't justify [Pre-Chorus] A There are kings in my past D6 Bm7 Things no one can be proud of A But I stand in the light I've cast D6 Bm7 And turn away from any lack of love D A Oh, when I walked through that door Bm I say here I go D A You see me and nothing more Bm I'm singing what I know [Chorus] A D I know better A D I know better [Verse 2] A Legend is just a name D Bm7 I know better than to be so proud A I won't drink in all this fame D Bm7 I'll take more love than I'm allowed [Pre-Chorus] D A Bm I won't hide or cut it off from where it came D A Bm My history has brought me to this place D A Bm This power and the color of my face [Chorus] A D And I know better A D I know better [Bridge] F#m A D6 I'll rise from the floor if I don't win F#m A D6 I'll bust upon that door so let me in F#m A D And the music chooses me to sing I let her Bm D I'll sing what I know, yes [Chorus] A D I know better, oh A D I know better, yes A D I know better A D I know better [Outro] A D x3 A
