The Man You Want Me to Be Phil Joel
Verse 1:
[Dm]I played the fool so long
Thought I was so strong
[Bb]All the while
You knew it wasn't [F]true
[Dm]Rerunning in my mind
Memories of another time
When [Bb]all I ever lived for
Was [F]You
Chorus:
[Dm]Jesus
Make me the [Bb]man You want me to [F]be
[Dm]Jesus
Make me the [Bb]man You want me to [F]be
Verse 2:
[Dm]I've been listening all my life
Words are spoken all the time
[Bb]I have heard the liars and the [F]true
[Dm]Voices twisting in the air
Sweetly sounding so unclear
But [Bb]nothing can replace a word
From [F]You
Chorus:
[Dm]Jesus
Make me the [Bb]man You want me to [F]be
[Dm]Jesus
Make me the [Bb]man You want me to [F]be
Verse 3:
A [Dm]child is but for so long
Turn around those days are gone
[Bb]Nothing can replace the years
Of [F]youth
I have [Dm]swallowed lies
That tasted true
The plans I thought were sent
From You
When [Bb]all You wanted was for me was
[F]To be still
Chorus:
[Dm]Jesus
Make me the [Bb]man You want me to [F]be
[Dm]Jesus
Make me the [Bb]man You want to [F]see
Interlude:
[Bb] [F] [C] [Dm]
[Bb] [F] [C]
Bridge:
The [Bb]burning in the heart
Of man's [F]deepest desire
Is [C]rising like a flame[Dm]
Chorus:
[C]Jesus [G]
Make us the [D]men You're wantin'
To [Em]see
[C]Jesus [G]
Make me the [D]man You want me to [Em]be
Bridge:
The burning in the [C]heart
Of our deepest de[G]sire
Rising like a [D]flame
Burning higher and [Em]higher
Burning in the [C]heart
Of our deepest de[G]sire
Is to know [D]You[Em]
3X
Chorus:
[C]Jesus [G]
Make us the [D]men You want us to [Em]be
