🎸 Intro: 

C G Am F



🎸 Verse 1:
C                              G
I know I'm probably better off on my own
                      Am                              F
Than lovin’ a man who didn't know what he had when he had it
C                                  G
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
                    Am                              G
Never again
I just wish I could forget when it was magic

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

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


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


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

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

G Am F

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

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

C                                             G
(Sometimes, in the middle of the night
I can feel you again)
                                         Am
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)
F
Yeah, yeah
C                                         G

But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man
A better man

If you were a better man
