Better Off With Out You

[First Part]

C
We used to stay up 'til the early 
morning
Am
Talking 'bout the world like we knew
 everything
F
But somewhere along the way, I lost 
you
G
You faded out, like you always do
C
I tried to fix the cracks, I tried 
to fight
Am
But you were only there when it felt
 right
F
Now I’m standing on my own two feet
G
And I’m learning that I’m better 
without the lies you keep

[Pre-Chorus]

Am
I used to think you were the one I’d
 need
F
But now I see it clearly: you were 
never there for me

[Chorus]

C
I’m better off without you
G
The weight is gone, and I’m feeling

Brand new
Am
I found my strength in the silence 
you
Left
F
No more pretending I’m something

I’m not for your love to accept
C
I thought I’d miss the way you’d 
smile
G
But now I know I’ve been walking 
miles
Am
I’m stronger now, and it's crystal 
clear
F
I’m better off without you here

[Second Part]

Continues after the ad
C
I gave you all my time, all my trust
Am
But you took it all and turned it to
 dust
F
You’d disappear when things got 
tough
G
Leaving me wondering if I was enough
C
But I won’t keep chasing what’s 
already

Gone
Am
I’ll move on, I’ll be strong
F
I’m letting go of all the doubts
G
And now I’m walking away from what

We talked about

[Pre-Chorus]

Am
I used to think you were my home
F
But now I see I’m better off alone

[Chorus]

C
I’m better off without you
G
The weight is gone, and I’m feeling

Brand new
Am
I found my strength in the silence 
you
Left
F
No more pretending I’m something I’m
 not

For your love to accept
C
I thought I’d miss the way you’d 
smile
G
But now I know I’ve been walking 
miles
Am
I’m stronger now, and it's crystal 
clear
F
I’m better off without you here

[Bridge]

Am
I thought I’d break, I thought I’d 
fall
F
But now I’m standing tall
C
With every step, I find my way
G
I won’t look back, no more today
Am
You were just a chapter in my book
F
And I’m finally ready to close that 
look

[Chorus]

C
I’m better off without you
G
The weight is gone, and I’m feeling

Brand new
Am
I found my strength in the silence 
you

Left
F
No more pretending I’m something I’m
 not

For your love to accept
C
I thought I’d miss the way you’d 
smile
G
But now I know I’ve been walking 
miles
Am
I’m stronger now, and it's crystal 
clear
F
I’m better off without you here

[Outro]

C
So here’s to me, and here’s to my 
heart
G
Finally free, and ready to start
Am
I’m better off without you—
F
It’s the truth I never knew
