Intro: Em7

You can cry to me like I'm somebody else
                                                  G
And then you leave me alone to gather dust on the shelf of love
Em7
  Showed you all of my faults and gave you all I had
                                               G
And then you threw it away and told me to be a man,
But I was

You won't be   wai-ting,  and I'll give the ghost of what we had
   C9 D/F# Em7 G     D/F#
To leave me   sha-king alone

C9      D/F# Em7 G
You   said for--e---ver
C9 D/F#        Em7            G
Am I  supposed to leave that and just let go
   C9 D/F# Em7 G        D/F#
So now   it's ne--ver from here

          C9         G                     C9          G
And every little step I take and every single move I've ever made
                   C9       G
And even though my heart still aches
           D/F#
Makes me a better man
                    Em7       C9                     Em7           C9
And look at all the mess I've made and I still think of you in better days
                   Em7         C9               D/F#
And even though my heart still aches it makes me a better man
