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