    Before I Ever Knew Better

  • Artist:

    Sara Bareilles

Capo 1
C	      Am		Dm
  Don't know where to put you anymore
C	      Am	     Dm	G
  You can't be kept inside my dresser drawer
	  C	      Am		Dm
I find the pieces of you in my dreams
	   Dm Em F
And in the evenings

C	    Am		Dm
  Spill out the edge of my mind.
C	      Am	     Dm	G
  Memories of you feel like they're miles wide
	  C	    Am		Dm
It's all I can do to get to the other side
	   Dm Em F
Of these evenings

Chorus
		  C			    G
I'll see you tonight in the back of my mind
			Dm			    G
When I remember your skin like I remembered it then
		  		C			G
When you would dress me in white with the look in your eyes
			Dm Dm E F
Knew you'd love me forever
		   C   Am   Dm
Before I ever knew better

C   Am   Dm

Verse II. 
C             Am           Dm
Can't see myself back beside you
C            Am          Dm
But I see nobody else
C             Am                  Dm
Nobody's perfect but I'm perfectly happy to keep on
Dm             Em                F
Bringing this love down off the shelf.

Chorus
		  C			    G
I'll see you tonight in the back of my mind
			Dm			    G
When I remember your skin like I remembered it then
		  		C			G
When you would dress me in white with the look in your eyes
			Dm Dm E F
Knew you'd love me forever

Before I ever knew..

Bridge
G		F			C			   G
  Better off, I couldn't say if I'd be better off without a love I live without anyway
	  F					C
Better off, oooh. Who knows? See you tonight.

C  G  Dm  G 4x

		   C   Am   Dm
Before I ever knew better
C   Am   Dm
