Bm A A Em7 Bm A Em7 (x2)

Verse 1:
Bm A         A            Em7
We got back, it's not the same
        Bm        A           Em7
And I'm afraid to say it out loud
Bm       A               A               Em7
Then you replied, "Could I have done something "
                 Bm   A          Em7
You've got some nerve asking me now
              Bm       A      A         Em7
Though I'm in love with it, I will amputate
        Bm           A          Em7
I care enough not to keep you around
       Bm       A       A              Em7
Is it rough for you? I can't bear the way
            Bm        A        Em7
You look at me when I let you down

Pre-Chorus:
Gm7                     Bm            A
Tell me, is this how it goes when you let someone know
Gm7                         Bm       A
That they gave it their best but you still gotta roll?
Gm7                  Bm   A
Remember, I told you that we would be closer
Gm7             Bm   A
If we took some time further apart

Chorus:
Gm7            Em7
Didn't it make you better?
A
Aren't we better now?
Gm7            Em7
I know it made me better
A
Aren't we better now?

Bm A A Em7 Bm A Em7

Verse 2:
Bm       A       A            Em7
Been six months, since my birthday
               Bm    A           Em7
And it feels good to hear your voice
Bm        A                A
We took a ride through the hills
      Em7           Bm        A           Em7
Replayed all of the reasons I made that choice
      Bm         A         A      Em7
We go around the bend only to reveal
        Bm        A           Em7
What we couldn't see before
      Bm             A              A          Em7
We're better off as friends, baby, you can't stay
         Bm           A           Em7
We both know I'm not there anymore

Pre-Chorus:
Gm7                     Bm            A
Tell me, is this how it goes when you let someone know
Gm7                   Bm       A
That it's all for the best? We cut and we grow
Gm7             Bm        A
Remember, I told you that we would be closer
Gm7             Bm    A
If we took some time further apart

Chorus:
Gm7            Em7
Didn't it make you better?
Bm7        A
Aren't we better now?
Gm7            Em7
I know it made me better
Bm7       A
Aren't we better now

Bridge:
F#m7
That we been around the block once or twice?
F#m7                                         Gm7
Breaking down in the middle of the night, no ride
Gm7
And then somehow we fixed it
F#m7
Glad we're talking when we used to fight
F#m7                                            Em
Still bail me out when my money ain't right, oh no
Em
And now we're riding through the night
F#m7
All the things I had to keep at bay
F#m7                                           Gm7
Stopped you but I could've waited all day, all night
Gm7
Could've been forever
F#m7
Told you that I needed time to hate
F#m7                                                         Em
But there's a lot to think about while you wait, wait, wait, wait, wait
Em      G#7      Gm7
Tell me one more time

Chorus:
Gm7            Em7
Didn't it make you better?
Bm7       A
Aren't we better now?
Gm7            Em7
I know it made me better
Bm7       A
Aren't we better now?
