Intro:  D5 C5 A5 G5 x2 


Verse1:

D5        C5      A5            G5
Don't mind if you treat me bad again
D5 C5      A5       G5
I don't care anymore
D5        C5            A5      G5
Life's too short to make trouble out of small things
     F5         C5
It is better this way
F5      C5
I'm sort of laid back today



Verse2:

D5        C5            A5            G5
I close my ears when words come flying out
D5           C5      A5       G5
I've heard them all before
D5              C5                  A5      G5
With just a lot of hope flushing down the drain
F5         C5
It is better this way
F5      C5
I am going away



Chorus:

A5      F5      C5      G5
I try to learn some more
A5      F5      C5      G5
Instead of dragging the both of us down
A5      F5      C5      G5
If I separate ways
D5            C5
It's never easy this way
F5            C5
It's never easy this way



Verse3:
D5              C5                  A5      G5
my palms are sweating I'm barely aware
D5           C5      A5       G5
when I'm turning down
D5              C5                  A5      G5
A soulful life that is what I've been told
F5      C5
Think it's better this way
F5      C5
I won't regret it one day



Chorus:

A5      F5      C5      G5
I try to learn some more
A5      F5      C5      G5
Instead of dragging the both of us down
A5      F5      C5      G5
If I separate ways
D5            C5
It's never easy this way
F5            C5
It's never easy this way



Bridge:

A5          E5               
Talk to me, throw the ball back
F5      
I've been here before
         G5
There is no turning down
A5            E5                  
Talk to me, just tell it like it is
F5
Just two free souls going out each other at each other


Verse4:

We're at the crossroad, going separate ways

Time to say it as it is

And if we bump into each other one day

We'll be better then

Maybe we can start all over again
