Chords with lyrics

• Capo on 5th

Intro:
C majorC G+G FF


Verse:
C majorC                G+G
I know I’m probably better off on my own
           FF
Than lovin’ a man who didn’t know
What he had when he had it
  C majorC               G+G
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
          FF
Never again, I just wish
I could forget when it was magic

Pre-chorus:

         FF
I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror
    G+G
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it
 FF
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run


Chorus:

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


Verse:
C majorC               G+G
I know I’m probably better off all alone
Than needing a man who could
FF
 change his mind at any given minute
          C majorC
And it’s always on your terms
           G+G
I’m hanging on every careless word
          FF
Hoping it might turn sweet again
Like it was in the beginning

Pre-chorus:

     FF
But your jealousy, I can hear it now
        G+G
You’re talking down to me like I’ll always be around
      FF
You push my love away like it’s some kind of loaded *
     G+G
Boy, you never thought I’d run


Chorus:

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


Bridge:

 FF                 G+G
I hold onto this pride because these days it’s all I have
   FF              A minorAm    G+G     FF
And I gave you my best and we both know you can’t say that
You can’t say that
         C majorC
I wish you were a better man
     G+G
I wonder what we would’ve become
       FF
If you were a better man
  G+G
We might still be in love
       C majorC
If you were a better man
  G+G
You would’ve been the one
       FF
If you were a better man
Yeah, yeah


Chorus:

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


Outro:
  G+G                   FF
We might still be in love, if you were a better man
G+G                  C majorC
Could’ve been the one if you were a better man
  G+G                   A minorAm     G+G
We might still be in love, if you were a better man
    FF
