Better Man chords by Little Big Town

• Capo on 5th

Intro:
C G F


Verse:
C                G
I know I’m probably better off on my own
           F
Than lovin’ a man who didn’t know
What he had when he had it
  C               G
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
          F
Never again, I just wish
I could forget when it was magic

Pre-chorus:

         F
I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror
    G
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it
 F
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run


Chorus:

C
Sometimes, in the middle of the night,
   G
I can feel you again
      Am
But I just miss you, and
    G        F
I just wish you were a better man
   C
And I know why we had to say goodbye
     G
Like the back of my hand
      Am
And I just miss you, and
    G        F
I just wish you were a better man
       C
A better man


Verse:
C               G
I know I’m probably better off all alone
Than needing a man who could
F
 change his mind at any given minute
          C
And it’s always on your terms
           G
I’m hanging on every careless word
          F
Hoping it might turn sweet again
Like it was in the beginning


Pre-chorus:

     F
But your jealousy, I can hear it now
        G
You’re talking down to me like I’ll always be around
      F
You push my love away like it’s some kind of loaded *
     G
Boy, you never thought I’d run


Chorus:

C
Sometimes, in the middle of the night,
   G
I can feel you again
      Am
But I just miss you, and
    G        F
I just wish you were a better man
   C
And I know why we had to say goodbye
     G
Like the back of my hand
      Am
And I just miss you, and
    G        F
I just wish you were a better man
       C G Am G F
A better man


Bridge:

 F                 G
I hold onto this pride because these days it’s all I have
   F              Am    G     F
And I gave you my best and we both know you can’t say that
You can’t say that
         C
I wish you were a better man
     G
I wonder what we would’ve become
       F
If you were a better man
  G
We might still be in love
       C
If you were a better man
  G
You would’ve been the one
       F
If you were a better man
Yeah, yeah


Chorus:

C
Sometimes, in the middle of the night,
   G
I can feel you again
      Am
But I just miss you, and
    G        F
I just wish you were a better man
   C
And I know why we had to say goodbye
     G
Like the back of my hand
      Am
And I just miss you, and
    G        F      C
I just wish you were a better man


Outro:
  G                   F
We might still be in love, if you were a better man
G                  C
Could’ve been the one if you were a better man
  G                   Am     G
We might still be in love, if you were a better man
    F
