[Intro] E [Verse 1]
E                              B
I know I’m probably better off on my own

                     A
Than lovin’ a man who didn’t know
What he had when he had it
    E                              B
And I see the permanent damage you did to me

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

                 A
I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror

       B
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it

  A                                    A
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run
[Chorus]
E                                            B
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again

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

      E
And I know why we had to say goodbye

         B
Like the back of my hand

           C#m                                  A
And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man
[Verse 2]
    E                B
I’m waiting on every careless word

                      A
Hoping they might turn sweet again
Like it was in the beginning
         A
But your jealousy, I can hear it now

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

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

        B
No, you never thought I’d run
[Chorus]
E                                            B
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again

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

      E
And I know why we had to say goodbye

         B
Like the back of my hand

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

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

       C#m                                  B         C#m
And I gave you my best and we both know you can’t say that

C#m
You can’t say that

    A
No, you can’t say that

                  E
I wish you were a better man

         B
I wonder what we would’ve become

              C#m
If you were a better man

   A
We might still be in love

              E
If you were a better man

    B
You would’ve been the one

              C#m
If you were a better man

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

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

      E
And I know why we had to say goodbye

         B
Like the back of my hand

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

   B
We might still be in love

              C#m
If you were a better man

    A                 B
You would’ve been the one

              E
If you were a better man
