Capo 2

G                           Em
Don’t call my name out your window as I’m leaving
C                          D
Cause I won’t even turn my head
G                            Em
Don’t send your kin folks to give me no damn talkin’
A                         D
Cause I’ll be gone like I said

        G                                     G7
You can say the same old things that you been saying all along
        C                      
So just lay there in your bed and keep your mouth shut ‘til I’m gone
    G                               Em 
No, don’t give me that old familiar cryin’ cussin’ moan,
C    D          G     G/F#  Em  
Understand your man
      C    D          G
Awww, understand your man

You can give my other suit to the Salvation Army
And everything else I leave behind
I ain’t takin’ nothing that’ll slow down my travelin’
While I untangle my mind

I ain’t gonna repeat what I said anymore
While I’m breathin’ air that ain’t been breathed before
Yeah, I’ll be as gone as a wild goose in winter
Then you’ll understand your man (go on, meditate on it)
Understand your man (you hear me talkin’, honey)
Understand your man (remember what I told ya)

Understand Your Man

Understand Your Man
