Better Tab

by Brooke Fraser


Just another way to play this awesome song.
I've also done some other tabs by Marie Digby aswell.
Hope you enjoy the tab.

There is a chord in there (D*) that is not a real chord, but it looks like this:
D* - 000230 (open strings - apart from capo obviously.)


Brooke Fraser - Better
Standard Tuning
Capo 1st Fret


Intro , , , , , , , 

Verse
               *   
Take my shoulder back now
                         *   
Your head’s too heavy  for  me
                           
Please don’t come around here no more
                           
‘Cos I asked you to stop
        
And you wouldn’t

Chorus
                                
I would give anything  to make you better
                                   
I would give anything  to point you to free
                                  (ring) 
I would give anything  to help you realise

Verse
I loved you ‘til it killed me
So my logic wouldn’t hurt you
I know you might blame me anyway
Well I’m sorry, I’m so sorry

Chorus
                                
I would give anything  to make you better
                                   
I would give anything  to point you to free
                                  (ring) 
I would give anything  to help you realise
                             
You’re not helping yourself  to me

BRIDGE
                                       
I’ve tried all the things they told me to do
                                  
Trying to close up the wounds left open by you
                                    
And if I seem doubtful, distrusting… I am
    
You said you wouldn’t do it again
    
You said you wouldn’t do it again

                                  
  Anything just to try and help you see
                  
You ain’t helping yourself by hurting me
                                   
  Time to let you go, time for you to see
                  
You ain’t helping yourself by hurting me

                                
I would give anything  to make you better
                                   
I would give anything  to point you to free
                                  (ring) 
I would give anything  to help you realise
                           
You’re not helping yourself,  no
                                      (ring)   
You’re not helping yourself by hurting me


Thanks heaps,
