Better Man

[Intro] C  G4  F2

C                              G4
I know I'm probably better off on my own
                      F2
Than lovin' a man who didn't know

What he had when he had it
    C                               G4
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
                    F2
Never again, I just wish

I could forget when it was magic
F2
I wish it wasn't 4am, standing in the mirror
       G4
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it
    F2
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run

C
Sometimes, in the middle of the night,
       G4
I can feel you again
            Am
But I just miss you, and
        G4              F2
I just wish you were a better man
       C
And I know why we had to say goodbye
          G4
Like the back of my hand
            Am
And I just miss you, and
        G4              F2
I just wish you were a better man
           C
A better man

( C )

C                               G4
I know I'm probably better off all alone

Than needing a man who could
F2
change his mind at any given minute
                    C
And it's always on your terms
                      G4
I'm hanging on every careless word
                    F2
Hoping it might turn sweet again

Like it was in the beginning
          F2
But your jealousy, I can hear it now
                G4
You're talking down to me like I'll always be around
           F2
You push my love away like it's some kind of loaded gun
         G4
Boy, you never thought I'd run

C
Sometimes, in the middle of the night,
       G
I can feel you again
            Am
But I just miss you, and
       G4               F2
I just wish you were a better man
       C
And I know why we had to say goodbye
          G4
Like the back of my hand
            Am
And I just miss you, and
       G4               F2
I just wish you were a better man
          C  G4     Am G4    F2
A better man

   F2                                 G4
I hold onto this pride because these days it's all I have
       F2                             Am       G         F2
And I gave to you my best and we both know you can't say that

                   C
I wish you were a better man
         G4
I wonder what we would've become
               F2
If you were a better man
    G4
We might still be in love
               C
If you were a better man
      G4
You would've been the one
               F2
If you were a better man
F2
Yeah, yeah

C
Sometimes, in the middle of the night,
       G4
I can feel you again
            Am
But I just miss you, and
        G4              F2
I just wish you were a better man
       C

          G4
Like the back of my hand

And I just miss you, and

      G4                                  Am     G4
We might still be in love, if you were a better man

F2
Yeah, yeah
