Better Than This (CHORDS) by Everyone Leaves
[Chorus]~
Am
I'm sorry I wanted to be
C/G Cmaj7/G Am/F Am/F
So much better than this,.. but I don't think I can
C/G C/B Am/F Am/F
I say these words to keep your body close to my heart!
C/G C/B Am/F
I know you're gone,.. but I still miss you all the time!
C/G Cmaj7/G Am/F
I say I'm fine but I can't keep you from my mind!
[Verse]~
Am C/G Cmaj7/G C/B
You knew the worst of me! You loved the things I hated in myself!
Am C/G
You saw my greatest fears! You sat with me those sixteen years,..
Cmaj7/G C/B
When I hated my self,.. and hated you for loving me all the same! Please look away!
Am C/G Cmaj7/G
But now,.. I've grown,.. and moved away from home; I keep my problems to myself,..
C/B
Because you taught me that strength wasn't building good support,..
Am C/G Cmaj7/G
But rather needing nothing of the sort! I keep steadfast in faith not to the world,..
C/B
But to your voice drilling deep inside my head!
Am C/G
I've known the worst of this! I've cut off everyone,..
Cmaj7/G C/B
Because you taught me that's how a man should be!
