[Verse 1]
G A
Can you judge a man
F#m
By the way he wears his hair?
G A
Can you read his mind
F#m
By the clothes that he wears?
Em F#m
Can you see a bad man
G A
By the pattern on his tie?
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
Then Mister you're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Oh Mister You're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
[Verse 2]
G A
Could you tell a wise man
F#m
By the way he speaks or spells?
G A
Is this more important
F#m
Than the stories that he tells?
Em F#m
And call a man a fool
G A
If for wealth he doesn't strive
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
Then Mister you're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Oh Mister You're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
[Solo]
F#m
[Verse 3]
G A
Can you condemn a man
F#m
If your faith he doesn't hold?
G A
Say the colour of his skin
F#m
Is the colour of his soul?
Em F#m
Or could you say if men
G A
For king and country all must die?
[Chorus]
Bm F#m
Then Mister you're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Oh Mister You're a better man than I
Bm F#m
Yeah Mister You're a better man than I
