[C] [G] [Am] [F]
I [C] know I'm probably better off[G] on my own
Than lovin’ a man who [Am]didn't know what he [F]had when he had it
[C]And I see the permanent damage you [G]did to me
Never again, I just [Am]wish I could forget when it was [G]magic
Pre-Chorus
[C]I wish it wasn't 4 AM, standing in the mirror
Saying [G]to myself, "You know you had to do it"
I [Am]know the bravest thing I ever did was [F]run
Chorus
[C]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can[G] feel you again
But I just[Am] miss you, and I just wish you were a [F]better man
And I [C]know why we had to say goodbye like the [G]back of my hand
But I just [Am]miss you, and I just wish you were a [F]better man
[F]A better man
Verse 2
[C]I know I’m probably better off [G]all alone
Than needing a man who [Am]could change his mind
At any given[F] minute
And it was always[C] on your terms
I waited on every [G]careless word
Hoping they might turn [Am]sweet again
Like it was in the[F] beginning
Pre-Chorus
But your [C]jealousy, oh, I can hear it[G] now
Talking [G]down to me like I'd always be around
Push my [Am]love away like it was some kind of loaded [F]gun
Oh, you never thought I'd [F]run
Chorus
[C]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can [G]feel you again
But I just [Am]miss you, and I just wish you were a[F] better man
And I [C]know why we had to say goodbye, like the [G]back of my hand
But I just [Am]miss you, and I just wish you were a [F]better man
[F]A better man
Bridge
I [C]hold onto this pride because these days it's [G]all I have
And I [Am]gave to you my best
And we both [G]know you can't [F]say that
I wish you were a[C] better man
I wonder [G]what we would've become
If you were a [Am]better man
We [F]might still be in love
If you were a [C]better man
You [G]would've been the one
If you were a [Am]better man
[F]Yeah, yeah
Chorus
[C]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can [G]feel you again
But I just [Am]miss you, and I just wish you were a[F] better man
And I [C]know why we had to say goodbye, like the[G] back of my hand
But I just [Am]miss you, and I just wish you were a[F] better man
[F]A better man
([C]Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can[G] feel you again)
We might still be in love, if you were a [Am]better man
(But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man)
[F]Yeah, yeah
[C]I know why we had to say goodbye like the [G]back of my hand
But I just [Am]miss you and I just wish you were a [F]better man
A better man
Outro
We [F]might still be in love
If you were a [C]better man
You[G] would've been the one
If you were a [Am]better man
