Verse:

G+G
Go, be yourself, on your way
          E minorEm
and don't ever look back
To check if I'm okay,
         C majorC
And don't ever be sad
That you chose him instead
          D MajorD
Cause I don't want regrets
And I'd rather be rid of it
  G+G
And when you want someone who cares,
           E minorEm
who will know how you feel
When you don't wanna share
         C majorC
Who will show you support
When you've lost your meaning
          D MajorD
Just remember this time
When you chose not to be with me

Chorus:

G+G
And I tried to defend
How I thought we would play out
 E minorEm
I came and confessed
How I love you more than he does
  C majorC
So choose me instead,
        D MajorD
Oh choose me instead cause
              G+G
He's not good enough for you
              E minorEm
He's not good enough for you
              C majorC
He won't do the things that I would do
             D MajorD
He's not good enough for you
          G+G
He's not good enough to be
           E minorEm
Even half as good as he should be
            C majorC
And I watch you choose him instead of me
         D MajorD
Watch you choose him instead of me

Verse:

G+G
Go be in love I don't care
         E minorEm
But don't ever pretend
That we're both unaware cause the truth is that
C majorC
you still permit me to be
          D MajorD
Close enough that I know
You don't want me to leave
G+G
And then I remember he's there
            E minorEm
And he's been there for years
At your side like a stain
            C majorC
And when I see you with him
In your eyes there's a pain
           D MajorD
And it's trapped you inside
Like you can't get away


Chorus:

G+G
And I tried to defend
How I thought we would play out
 E minorEm
I came and confessed
How I love you more than he does
  C majorC
So choose me instead,
        D MajorD
Oh choose me instead cause
             G+G
He's not good enough for you
             E minorEm
He's not good enough for you
              C majorC
He won't do the things that I would do
             D MajorD
He's not good enough for you
          G+G
He's not good enough to be
           E minorEm
Even half as good as he should be
            C majorC
And I watch you choose him instead of me
         D MajorD
Watch you choose him instead of me

G+G
And I tried to defend
How I thought we would play out
 E minorEm
I came and confessed
How I love you more than he does
  C majorC
So choose me instead,
        D MajorD
Oh choose me instead cause
             G+G
He's not good enough for you
             E minorEm
He's not good enough for you
              C majorC
He won't do the things that I would do
             D MajorD
He's not good enough for you
          G+G
He's not good enough to be
           E minorEm
Even half as good as he should be
            C majorC
And I watch you choose him instead of me
         D MajorD
