I Know Better
John Legend

F They say sing what you know A# Gm7 But I've sung what they want F Some folks do what they're told A# Gm7 But baby this time I won't A# F Will look through that door Gm I know the truth from lie A# F Gm Some things I've done before I can't justify [Pre-Chorus] F There are kings in my past A#6 Gm7 Things no one can be proud of F But I stand in the light I've cast A#6 Gm7 And turn away from any lack of love A# F Oh, when I walked through that door Gm I say here I go A# F You see me and nothing more Gm I'm singing what I know [Chorus] F A# I know better F A# I know better [Verse 2] F Legend is just a name A# Gm7 I know better than to be so proud F I won't drink in all this fame A# Gm7 I'll take more love than I'm allowed [Pre-Chorus] A# F Gm I won't hide or cut it off from where it came A# F Gm My history has brought me to this place A# F Gm This power and the color of my face [Chorus] F A# And I know better F A# I know better [Bridge] Dm F A#6 I'll rise from the floor if I don't win Dm F A#6 I'll bust upon that door so let me in Dm F A# And the music chooses me to sing I let her Gm A# I'll sing what I know, yes [Chorus] F A# I know better, oh F A# I know better, yes F A# I know better F A# I know better [Outro] F A# x3 F
