Better Off Alone

Katharine McPhee

G
One thing I'm wonderin'
Bdim     Dm      Em
When you run out of friends
         C
Will you be coming back home?

G                        Bdim
Let's think this through again
Dm         Em
Let's take a different spin
          C           G
Why can't I leave you alone?

                       Bdim Dm
Somewhere tonight, you may be found
Em                   C
With some other girl you've been draggin' around
G                        Bdim    Dm
You lie to yourself, and you lie to me
   Em                   Cm
It seems like the truth is your worst enemy

      G               D
Cause baby I'm tired, tired of the fight
F            C                       G
I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights
                D     F
It's taken some time, cause I didn't know
C                   Am
If I could ever let you go
           D            G
You helped me figure it out
               G7
I'm better off alone
           Em       C
I'm better off alone

  G
I may be found, somewhere tonight
            Dm             Em      C
Cursing the day you walked into my life
            G                       Dm
What's done is done, I can't change time
         Em                   C
But I'll be damned if I'm not gonna try
Oh I'm gonna try

G

                D        F
Baby I'm tired, tired of the fight
    C                        G                    D
I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights
                F                    C
It's taken some time, cause I didn't know
If I could ever let you go
           Bm         C
You helped me figure it out
               B
I'm better off alone

Em        D                Am7         C
But every now and then, my heart gives in
                         B7
To the hope that someday you'll change
Em         D    A           C#m A
Then alone I'll wake, to my own mistakes
               G
That it's just a foolish game

          D         F
I'm tired, tired of the fight
             C          G                          D
I'm tired of the lonely lonely lonely days and the dark endless nights
F
You didn't think, cause you didn't know
     Am                                D
That I'd find the strength to let, let you go
Bm        G
I finally figured it out
Bdim       Dm
I'm better off alone
Em             C
I'm better off alone

G                  Bdim
One thing before I go
          Dm
Something I've got to know
             C
Boy, did you ever love me?
