Intro: Ebm C# B C# x2
Verse 1:
Ebm
So let's set the scene
He walked out
C# B
to a busy street
In the summer heat
C# Ebm
Hazy from the night before
Not the type to
C# B
spend one alone
Even though he knows
C#
Come the morning
Ebm C# B
he'll be gone
C#
Just moving on
Verse 2:
Ebm C# B
She awoke in an empty bed
The sting of regret
C# Ebm
Creeping into every bone
On the nightstand
C# B
a note that read
"Girl I won't be back
C# Ebm
you deserve better than that"
C# B
She would cry if
C#
she could lie to herself
Ebm
Cause she's used
C# B
to the first time
C#
Always being her last
Chorus:
Ebm
Can you see it dripping
C# B
down from her lips
C#
Dancing on her fingertips?
Ebm C# B
Can you see the pain that she hides
C#
Deep inside in her eyes?
Ebm C# B
This is all just what it seems
C#
Give me just another dream
Ebm C# B
Could be that the end doesn't al ways
Just justify the means
C#
Sometimes it's better to just leave
Post chorus:
Ebm C# B
C# Ebm C# B C#
Sometimes it's better to just leave
Verse 3:
Ebm
So let's set this straight
Two weeks later
C# B
he's back again
City of sin
C# Ebm
And she's acting out her role
C# B
She arrives a touch at the waist
To another pretty face
C#
And she's taking
Ebm
this one home
C# B
She will lie and he
C#
will buy her lines
Ebm C# B
Cause you were never the first
C#
She tries that shit all the time
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
B Ebm
She's so afraid of
B
what she's become
F#
She's begging just to feel
C# B
something for anyone
C#
Nothing can stand
but she's made up her
Ebm
Mind is all I can't
F#
hang on now
C# B
She is on her own
Get out while you
C#
still 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

Sometimes it's better to just leave
C# Ebm C# B C#
Sometimes it's better to just leave
C# Ebm C# B C#
Sometimes it's better to just leave
C# Ebm(hold)
Sometimes it's better to just leave
