Better Than Yourself

Capo: 3rd fret Intro Em G C F B [Verse 1] Em I got the letter back Saying I can come and see you G I really don't have time But promised that I'd come and see you C You're sitting far away F But do you know I sometimes need you B I know that you deserve The time you got of all the people Em I know you never bent Even in the strongest wind G I really wished to every God That you were innocent C I'm happy and I'm proud F That I can still call you my friend B I hope you read the letters And the magazines I send [Pre-Chorus] Em You got your head up G But I don't have my hopes high C I know that you're a good man F B And that's what, brings a tear to my eye Chorus Em I'm like, ohhhh G I hope you know you're not alone in that hell C F And there ain't, noooo B No one can change it Em No one can do it better than yourself [Verse 2] Em I was sixteen And we used to roll together G You told me back then That I was meant for something better C You know in our life Nothing's gonna change but the weather B It seems it's been forever Since we really stuck together Em I'm living a crazy life I wish that you could see it too G See a thousand people sing My song from me to you C Every time I sing it F You know I'm bleeding too B Man I accept you as you are No I don't need the truth [Pre-Chorus] Em You got your head up G But I don't have my hopes high C F I know that you're a good man B And it brings a tear to my eye Chorus Em I'm like, ohhhh G I hope you know you're not alone in that hell C F And there ain't, noooo B No one can change it Em No one can do it better than yourself [Verse 3] Em I reminisce to back then, when it was you and I G Smoking big fat blunts, drive in movie night C F They tried to get you down, but you refused to die B They tried to give you angel wings, but you refused to fly Em You'd rather stay in hell, and take your time in jail G They're only punishing a soul that you will never sell C F We both know that we owe nothing to each other B But can you blame me, for loving and missing my brother [Outro Chorus] Em G Oh, oh I hope you know you're not alone in that hell C F And there ain't, noooo B No one can change it Em No one can do it better than yourself Em G Oh, oh I hope you know you're not alone in that hell C F And there ain't, noooo B No one can change it Em No one can do it better than yourself
