Intro:

E    A    F#m   B


Verse 1:
E                                  A
You still talk about him in your sleep
    F#m                                    B
And I know that you think he's just some secret you keep
  E                                     A
I came along right when he broke your heart
F#m                                 Bsus4            B
You gave most to me, but he still holds a couple parts

Pre-Chorus:
  C#m                              A
I know that it would kill you if you knew that I knew
F#m                                     B
Let me help you let go of what you're holding on to


Chorus:
      E                  A
I can be better than a memory
                        F#m
I can lay you down with both hands
                        B
Hold you tighter than a ghost can
       E                  C#m                  A                F#m
Let me kiss all of that miss-him right out of your lips tonight
          A
It's just you and me
      B                         E        A    F#m   B
Baby, let me be better than a memory


Verse 2:
    E                                    A
You never make me feel like this won't last
    F#m                               B
But I can't see the future when I'm wrеstlin' with your past
  E                                        A
I know what's in your heart, but in your head
F#m                                       Bsus4             B
If he's still hеre between us, it's too crowded in this bed


Pre-Chorus:
C#m                            A
Words can't be unspoken, but wrongs can be made right
     F#m                                    B
Just keep those blue eyes open when we're turning off the lights


Chorus:
      E                  A
I can be better than a memory
                        F#m
I can lay you down with both hands
                        B
Hold you tighter than a ghost can
       E                  C#m                  A                F#m
Let me kiss all of that miss-him right out of your lips tonight
          A
It's just you and me
      B                         E
Baby, let me be better than a memory


Bridge:
              G#m                         F#m
I'll always be a slow hand and a steady shoulder
                     B
If you need a little love to get you over


Chorus:
      E                  A
I can be better than a memory
                        F#m
I can lay you down with both hands
                        B
Hold you tighter than a ghost can
       E                  C#m                  A                F#m
Let me kiss all of that miss-him right out of your lips tonight
          A
It's just you and me
      B                         E
Baby, let me be better than a memory


Outro:
E    A    F#m   Bsus4   B   E
