------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maroon 5 - Better That We Break ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Created: June 22nd, 2007 Standard Tuning Capo can be used to adjust key for singing. When I play, I like to transition from D to Dsus4 with a hammer on the high E string. It's not necessary, but it sounds better I think.

Now waking up is hard to do And sleeping’s impossible too Everything’s reminding me of you What can I do? Chorus: ======== It’s not right, not okay Say the word that you'll say Maybe we’re better off this way I’m not fine, I’m in pain It’s harder everyday Maybe we’re better off this way It’s better that we break.. Verse 2: ========= A fool to let you slip away I chase you just to hear you say You’re scared and that you think that I’m insane The city looks so nice from here Pity I can’t see it clearly While you’re standing there, it disappears It disappears Chorus: ======== It’s not right, not okay Say the word that you'll say Maybe we’re better off this way I’m not fine, I’m in pain It’s harder everyday Maybe we’re better off this way It’s better that we break up Bridge: ======== Saw you sitting all alone You’re fragile and you’re cold, but that’s all right Life these days is getting rough It knocks you down and beats you up But it’s just a roller coaster anyway, yeah Chorus: ======== It’s not right, not okay Say the word that you'll say Maybe we’re better off this way I’m not fine, I’m in pain It’s harder everyday Maybe we’re better off this way It’s not right, not okay Say the word that you'll say Maybe we’re better off this way I’m not fine, I’m in pain It’s harder everyday Maybe we’re better off this way It’s better that we break.. baby
