Better Man chords by Taylor Swift

Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
E

Verse 1:
E                              B
I know I’m probably better off on my own
     A
Than lovin' a man who didn’t know
        A
What he had when he had it
    E                              B
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
                    A
Never again, I just wish I could forget when it was magic
E
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror
B
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it
A                                       B
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run

Chorus:
E                                            B
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again
           C#m                                  A
But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
      E
And I know why we had to say goodbye
         B
Like the back of my hand
           C#m                                  A
And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
A
A better man

Verse 2:
E                              B
I know I’m probably better off all alone
                             A
Than needing a man who could change his mind
   A
At any given minute
                        E
And it’s always on your terms
                     B
I’m hanging on every careless word
                     A
Hoping it might turn sweet again
A
Like it was in the beginning
         E
But your jealousy, I can hear it now
               B
You’re talking down to me like I’ll always be around
            A
You push my love away like it’s some kind of loaded gun
         B
Boy, you never thought I’d run

Chorus:
E                                            B
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again
           C#m                                  A
But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
      E
And I know why we had to say goodbye
         B
Like the back of my hand
           C#m                                  A
And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
A            E B
A better man
E B A

Bridge:
  A                                  B
I hold onto this pride because these days it’s all I have
       C#m                                  B         C#m
And I gave you my best and we both know you can’t say that
C#m
You can’t say that
    A
No, you can’t say that
                  E
I wish you were a better man
         B
I wonder what we would’ve become
              C#m
If you were a better man
   A
We might still be in love
              E
If you were a better man
    B
You would’ve been the one
              C#m
If you were a better man
A
Yeah, yeah

Chorus:
E                                            B
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again
           C#m                                  A
But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
      E
And I know why we had to say goodbye
         B
Like the back of my hand
           C#m                                  A
And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man

Outro:
              E
If you were a better man
   B
We might still be in love
              C#m
If you were a better man
    A                 B
You would’ve been the one
              E
If you were a better man
