Verse

Bb Eb
I understand your point of view
Ab F Bb
Letting me go but I thought you had more faith
Bb Eb
Everything I've done for you
Ab F Bb
You made the mistakes and now you throw this in my face
Bb Eb
And I have worked so hard for you
Ab C# F
All of this time and you cast me aside
Bb Eb F#
I understand your point of view

Chorus

C# Eb
But I can't seem to get my head around
Eb F#
All the things that I feel good about
Bb Ab
Always seem to disappear
C# Eb
And everytime I think I've got this all worked out
Eb F#
Something chews me up and spits me out
F# Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Eb F#
I'm better alone my dear.

Verse

Bb Eb Ab
You couldn't pick a better time to give me the news
Ab F Bb
Why don't you kick me when I'm down?
Bb Eb
I'd always believed in you
Ab F Bb
Defended your name but you have not been true
Bb Eb
I gave you so much of my life
Ab C# F
I've compromised and you tell me goodbye
Bb Ab F#
You couldn't pick a better time

Chorus

C# Eb
And I can't seem to get my head around
Eb F#
All the things that I feel good about
Bb Ab
Always seem to disappear
C# Eb
And every time I think I've got this all worked out
Eb F#
Something chews me up and spits me out
F# Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Eb F#
I'm better alone my dear

Bb C# Eb F#
I know I really should thank you for setting me free
Bb C# Eb Bb
It's really amazing the changes I'm starting to feel
Bb F# Ab
It's not gonna be long, till I'm fit and strong
F Bb
Deliverance helped me heal
Bb Eb F#
Still I wonder if you ever wish you still had me

C# Eb
Will I ever get my head around
Eb F#
All the things that I feel good about
Bb Ab
That always seems to disappear
C# Eb
When every time I think I've got this all worked out
Eb F#
Something chews me up and spits me out
F# Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Ab
No No No

C# Eb
I can't seem to get my head around
Eb F#
All the things that I feel good about
Bb Ab
That always seems to disappear
Ab
No No

C# Eb
And every time I think I've got this figured out
Eb F#
Something screws me up and drags me down
F# Bb
But there's nothing left to fear
Bb Eb F#
I'm better alone my dear
