Intro:
I knew I couldn't [Bbm]trust
you back when [C#]we were kids
You [Ebm]sold me out you [F#]ran and
hid From [Bbm]all your problems
can't [C#]even face your [Fm]friends
(hold)
Your best friends
Verse 1:
[Bbm] You're holding [F#]something in to[Bbm]night
And I can [F#]tell you're [Fm]not al[Bbm]right
[Bbm] Your poker [C#]face concealing
[Ebm]All the cards that you're not dealing
[Bbm] Cross your [F#]arms, avert your [Bbm]eyes
You're like a [F#]child a[Fm]shamed to
[Bbm]cry The words in[C#]side your head
Ebm (hold)
When I find out you'll wish you said
Chorus:
[Bbm]I [C#]let you down[Bbm] so many [F#]times
But I can't [Bbm]ever tell you [C#]this
There is [Fm]no forgiving it
[Bbm]I [C#]promised you I'd[Bbm] always [F#]be there
But that [Bbm]couldn?t be less [C#]true
It's the [Fm]worst thing I could do
Verse 2:
[Bbm] You're gonna [F#]bet it all on [Bbm]black
And when it's [F#]gone you'll [Fm]want it [Bbm]back
Cause truth will [C#]mix with reason
And [Ebm]cheating's the ultimate treason
[Bbm] And I could [F#]see through you like [Bbm]glass
Slither a[C#]round below [Fm]the [Bbm]grass
Garden of [C#]Eden burning
Ebm (hold)
Forbidden fruit you won't discern it
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
Growl:
[Ebm] My loss your gain
[F#] Do you love to
play this way?
[Ebm] I?ll cross your face
[F#] It's your reckoning
Sing:
[Ebm] Hold in the [F#]pain
We're [C#]better
off this [F#]way[Fm][Ebm][Fm]
[Ebm] We don't ex[F#]plain
We're [C#]better
off this [F#]way[Fm][Ebm][Fm]
[Ebm] Friends are in
F# C#(hold)
vain We're better
off this [F#]way[Fm][Ebm][Fm]
Growl:
Bbm(hold)
(Better off this way)
Verse 3:
I knew I couldn't [Bbm]trust
you back when [C#]we were kids
You [Ebm]sold me out you [F#]ran and
hid From [Bbm]all your problems
can't [C#]even face your [Fm]friends
(hold)
Your best friends
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro: Bbm(hold)
