    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. (do verse I chords)
Can't see myself back beside you
But I see nobody else
Nobody's perfect but I'm perfectly happy to keep on
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
