Intro: G5 D5 A5 C5

  G5
I called you something terrible
  D5
Told you not to call
  A5
Held you like I didn't care
  C5
While you tried not to fall and I
  G5
Done you wrong, I know the song
  D5
And I know how it ends
    A5                                 C5
And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry you're my best friend
    G5
Watched you drive away
  D5
Even wave goodbye
  A5
And I was fine with everything I said
  C5
When I got back inside
  G5
I was confronted by this heartache
      D5                     A5
And I know exactly why - and what I'll do
                       C5
Gonna treat you like I want somebody else to.

CHORUS:
 G5        C5            D5
I'm gonna be a better man
Than the one I was last night
 G5         C5            D5
I'm gonna show you who I am
I'm swallowing my pride
E5                           C5
I know right now you think I'm just another waste of time
E5         D5        C5
I'm gonna prove you wrong, no lie
         C5                 D5         G5
Say goodbye to the old me, hello Mr. Right


This world has been a whirlwind
Driving blind and dodging trains
And I was scared and you were scared and we were both scared of the same thing
I want to see you out, put on that old dress
I need to get you in the candlelight of an old Italian restaurant
Your eyes bring out the room , babe
Go ahead, it's safe to assume
It's safe to assume

CHORUS

  E5                     A5
Didn't mean to leave you out
        C5           D5
Just to remove any doubt......

CHORUS

*Side Note*
   -When I tabbed this song, I capo-ed the third fret to try and get more of the high
is heard on the mandolin.  It stays in the key of G.  The only change is that the G is
in an "E-major formation" and the C is played in an "A-major formation".  The change 
the open sounding chords to ring, like the mandolin.  Of course, all of the other chords
be played as bar chords (which I think Benjy does in some of the song anyway, but 
at the Chorus E-minor walk-down part) There was a diminished chord at the end of the bridge 
I couldn't quite get (probably because of my capo set-up) but the C fills in decently.
