[E] When the dinner gets [C#m]cold and the chatter gets [A]old
You ask for the [B]tab
[E] Oh that moment [C#m]again, he's insisting that [A]friends
Look at each other like [B]that
[E] When the words of a [C#m]sister come back in [A]whispers
That prove she was [B]not
[E] in fact what she [C#m]seemed, not a twin from your [A]dreams
She's a crook who was [B]caught
That [C#m]old familiar [B]body ache
The [A]snaps from the same little breaks in your [E]soul
[C#m]You know [A] [B] when it's time to [E]go
[C#m] [A] [B] [E]
[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
I [A]hold onto this pride because these [B]days it’s all I have
And I [C#m]gave you my best and we both know you [B]can’t say [C#m]that
[C#m]You can’t say that
[E] Fifteen [C#m]years, fifteen million [A]tears
Begging 'til my knees [B]bled
[E] I gave it my [C#m]all, he gave me nothing at [A]all
Then wondered why I [B]left
[E] Now he sits on his [C#m]throne in his palace of [A]bones
Praying to his [B]greed
[E] He's got my [C#m]past frozen behind [A]glass
But I've got [B]me
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
That [C#m]old familiar [B]body ache
The [A]snaps from the same little breaks in your [C#m]soul
That [C#m]old familiar [B]body ache
The [A]snaps from the same little breaks in your [C#m]soul
[B]I know [A]when it's time to go
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
[B]I know [A]when it's time to go
