• Capo on 4th

🎸 Intro:

C majorC G+G A minorAm FF


🎸 Verse 1:
C majorC               G+G
I know I'm probably better off on my own
           A minorAm               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
          A minorAm               G+G
Never again
I just wish I could forget when it was magic

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
C majorC
I wish it wasn't 4 AM, standing in the mirror
    G+G
Saying to myself, "You know you had to do it"
  A minorAm                  FF
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run

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


🎸 Verse 2:
C majorC               G+G
I know I’m probably better off all alone
            A minorAm
Than needing a man who could change his mind
       FF
At any given minute
         C majorC
And it was always on your terms
         G+G
I waited on every careless word
            A minorAm
Hoping they might turn sweet again
          FF
Like it was in the beginning

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
     C majorC              G+G
But your jealousy, oh
I can hear it now
    G+G
Talking down to me like I'd always be around
    A minorAm                    FF
Push my love away like it was some kind of loaded gun
    G+G         FF
Oh, you never thought I'd run

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

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