Better Off Alone

One thing I'm wonderin'

Bdim Dm Em

When you run out of friends

Will you be coming back home?

Let's think this through again

Dm Em

Let's take a different spin

Why can't I leave you alone?

Bdim Dm

Somewhere tonight, you may be found

With some other girl you've been draggin' around

You lie to yourself, and you lie to me

Em Cm

It seems like the truth is your worst enemy

Cause baby I'm tired, tired of the fight

I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights

It's taken some time, cause I didn't know

If I could ever let you go

You helped me figure it out

G7

I'm better off alone

I'm better off alone

I may be found, somewhere tonight

Cursing the day you walked into my life

What's done is done, I can't change time

But I'll be damned if I'm not gonna try

Oh I'm gonna try

Baby I'm tired, tired of the fight

I'm tired of the lonely days and the dark endless nights

It's taken some time, cause I didn't know

If I could ever let you go

You helped me figure it out

I'm better off alone

But every now and then, my heart gives in

B7

To the hope that someday you'll change

Then alone I'll wake, to my own mistakes

That it's just a foolish game

I'm tired, tired of the fight

I'm tired of the lonely lonely lonely days and the dark endless nights

You didn't think, cause you didn't know

That I'd find the strength to let, let you go

I finally figured it out

Bdim Dm

I'm better off alone

I'm better off alone

One thing before I go

Dm

Something I've got to know

Boy, did you ever love me?
