Better Man (Taylor's Version) chords by Taylor Swift

Intro:

E  B  A



Verse 1:
E                          B
I know I'm probably better off on my own
                    A
Than lovin’ a man who didn't know 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

Pre-Chorus:
                  A
I wish it wasn't 4AM, standing in the mirror
       B
Saying to myself, "You know you had to do it"
   A
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                   B               A
But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
       E                                       B
And I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand
           C#m                   B               A
But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
   E         B 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
At any given minute
                      E
And it was always on your terms
                    B
I waited on every careless word
                         A
Hoping they might turn sweet again
Like it was in the beginning

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

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

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

Yeah, yeah

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

(Sometimes, in the middle of the night
I can feel you again)
    B                                     C#m      B
We might still be in love, if you were a better man

(But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man)
A
Yeah, yeah
   E                                       B
I know why we had to say goodbye like the back of my hand
           C#m                  B               A
But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man
