Better Man

[E]I know I’m probably better off [B]on my own

Than [A]lovin' a man who didn’t know

What he [A]had when he had it

And [E]I see the permanent damage you [B]did to me

Never again, I just [A]wish I could forget when it was magic

[E]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 [B]run

[E]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can [B]feel you again

But I just [C#m]miss you, and I just wish you were a [A]better man

And I [E]know why we had to say goodbye

Like the [B]back of my hand

And I just [C#m]miss you, and I just wish you were a [A]better man

[A]A better man

[E]I know I’m probably better off [B]all alone

Than needing a man who could [A]change his mind

At [A]any given minute

And it’s always on your [E]terms

I’m hanging on every [B]careless word

Hoping it might turn [A]sweet again

[A]Like it was in the beginning

But your [E]jealousy, I can hear it now

You’re talking [B]down to me like I’ll always be around

You push my [A]love away like it’s some kind of loaded gun

Boy, you [B]never thought I’d run

[E]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can [B]feel you again

But I just [C#m]miss you, and I just wish you were a [A]better man

And I [E]know why we had to say goodbye

Like the [B]back of my hand

And I just [C#m]miss you, and I just wish you were a [A]better man

[A]A better man [E] [B]

[E] [B] [A]

I [A]hold onto this pride because these [B]days it’s all I have

And I g[C#m]ave you my best and we both know you [B]can’t say [C#m]that

[C#m]You can’t say that

No, [A]you can’t say that

I wish you were a [E]better man

I wonder [B]what we would’ve become

If you were a [C#m]better man

We [A]might still be in love

If you were a [E]better man

You [B]would’ve been the one

If you were a [C#m]better man

[A]Yeah, yeah

[E]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can [B]feel you again

But I just [C#m]miss you, and I just wish you were a [A]better man

And I [E]know why we had to say goodbye

Like the [B]back of my hand

And I just [C#m]miss you, and I just wish you were a [A]better man

If you were a [E]better man

We [B]might still be in love

If you were a [C#m]better man

You [A]would’ve been the [B]one

If you were a [E]better man
