Intro:

Am   D   D   A


Verse 1:
            Am
I wasn't perfect
D
Nothing is in life
            D
You weren't worth it
    A
But still I tried
             Am           D
And couldn't work it out
           D           A
I couldn't work it out
            Am
You were an angel
    D                             D
But so was Lucifer before he fell
    A
And I was ill-prepared
            Am
For all the hell that we'd Go through
      D
And I couldn't see the truth
       D                 A
That I didn't wanna see

Chorus:
                  Am
Maybe, I'm better off now
                            D
I just need to move on, somehow
                          D
Break free from your love spell
                     A
Maybe, that's just a lie I tell myself
               Am
Now that we're done
                    D
Maybe, I got it all wrong
                    D
Perhaps, I'm just delusional
                   A
For trying to hold on
                     Am   D   D   A
And maybe I'm better off


Verse 2:
        Am
Love is bullshit
            D
Because the more you give
                     D
The more it hurts to lose it
         A
Still we chase the oxytocin
       Am
Hoping love will be a cure
       D
But no poison harms you more
            D                    A
Than an unrequited lover's plea


Chorus:
                  Am
Maybe, I'm better off now
                            D
I just need to move on, somehow
                          D
Break free from your love spell
                     A
Maybe, that's just a lie I tell myself
               Am
Now that we're done
                    D
Maybe, I got it all wrong
                    D
Perhaps, I'm just delusional
                   A
For trying to hold on
                     Am   D
And maybe I'm better off
                 D  A
Maybe I'm better off
                 Am7   D   D   A
Maybe I'm better off
