1. What do you say when it's over

G A D

I don't know if I should say anything at all.

Em

One day we're rollin' in the clover,

G A D

next thing you know we take the fall.

D Em

2. Still, I think about the years since I first met you,

G A D

and the way it might have been without you here.

Em

And I don't know if words from me can still upset you,

G A D

but I've just gotta make this memory stand clear.

G D A D A G D A D A

I know I'm leavin' here a better man, for knowin' you this way.

G D A D A

Things I couldn't do before, now I think I can,

G D A - - - - - - D

and I'm leavin here a better man.

3. I guess I always knew I couldn't hold you,

G A D

but I'd never be the one to set you free.

Em

Just like some old nursery rhyme your mama told you,

G A D

you still believe in some old meant-to-be.

G D A D A G D A D A

Still I'm leavin' here a better man, for knowin' you this way.

G D A D A

Things I couldn't do before, now I think I can,

G D A D

and I'm leavin here a better man.

G D A D A G D A D A

Yes, I'm leavin' here a better man, for knowin' you this way.

Things I couldn't do before, now I know I can,

G D A D

and I'm leavin here a better man.

G – D – A – D – A G D A D

Yes I'm leavin here a better man.
