Em C
I tried to be perfect
G
But nothing was worth it
D
I don't believe it makes me real
Em C
I thought it'd be easy
G
But no one believes me
D
I meant all the things that I said
C G
If you believe it's in my soul
D C
I'd say all the words that I know
G
Just to see if it would show
D C (let ring)
That I'm trying to let you know
(verse)
That I'm better off on my own
Em C G D
Em C
This place is so empty
G
My thoughts are so tempting
D
I don't know how it got so bad
Em C
Sometimes it's so crazy
G
That nothing can save me
D
But it's the only thing that I have
C G
If you believe it's in my soul
D C
I'd say all the words that I know
G
Just to see if it would show
D C (let ring)
That I'm trying to let you know
(solo)
That I'm better off on my own
