Intro: Ebm C# B C# x2
Verse 1:
So let's set the [Ebm]scene
He walked out
to [C#]a [B]busy street
In the summer heat
Hazy [C#]from the night be[Ebm]fore
Not the type to
s[C#]pend [B]one alone
Even though he knows
Come the [C#]morning
he'll be [Ebm]gone[C#][B]
Just moving on[C#]
Verse 2:
[Ebm] She awoke in [C#]an [B]empty bed
The sting of regret
Creeping [C#]into every [Ebm]bone
On the nightstand
[C#]a [B]note that read
"Girl I won't be back
you de[C#]serve better than [Ebm]that"
She [C#]would [B]cry if
she could lie to [C#]herself
Cause she's [Ebm]used
to [C#]the [B]first time
Always being her [C#]last
Chorus:
Can you see it [Ebm]dripping
down [C#]from her [B]lips
Dancing on her finger[C#]tips?
Can you see the [Ebm]pain [C#]that she [B]hides
Deep inside in her [C#]eyes?
This is all [Ebm]just [C#]what it [B]seems
Give me just another [C#]dream
Could be that the [Ebm]end doesn't [C#]al [B]ways
Just justify the means
Sometimes it's [C#]better to just leave
Post chorus:
[Ebm] [C#] [B]
Sometimes it's [C#]better to just [Ebm]leave[C#][B][C#]
Verse 3:
So let's set this s[Ebm]traight
Two weeks later
[C#]he's [B]back again
City of sin
And she's [C#]acting out her [Ebm]role
She arrives a [C#]touch [B]at the waist
To another pretty face
And she's [C#]taking
this one [Ebm]home
She [C#]will [B]lie and he
will buy [C#]her lines
Cause you were [Ebm]never [C#]the [B]first
She tries that shit all the [C#]time
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
[B] She's so [Ebm]afraid of
what she's be[B]come
She's begging just to [F#]feel
some[C#]thing for any[B]one
Nothing can s[C#]tand
but she's made up her
[Ebm]Mind is all I can't
hang [F#]on now
[C#]She is on her [B]own
Get out while you
s[C#]till have some heart left
[Ebm] You can't say "so
[C#/F]long" with no hope
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro: With Guitar Solo on 2nd Guitar
[Ebm] [C#] [B]
Sometimes it's [C#]better to just [Ebm]leave[C#][B][C#]
Sometimes it's [C#]better to just [Ebm]leave[C#][B][C#]
Sometimes it's [C#]better to just [Ebm]leave[C#][B][C#]
C# Ebm(hold)
Sometimes it's better to just leave
