Verse 1:
   G
My heart drops dead every time that I see her

Run upstairs so I can get the picture clearer
   C
Walking past my room

In the early afternoon
  G
Long dark hair, in an oversized sweater
                                               C
Know you don't care but I can pretend that you do

In the early afternoon

Pre-chorus:
    G
Oh, maybe one day suddenly
  Bm                             C
You'll look up and notice me, up there
            Cm
But I'm too scared

Chorus:
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone (Alone, alone)
                         C
I say I'll get better, I won't (Ooh, ooh)
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone

Verse 2:

I woke up in the morning, talked myself up
                       C
Got the courage then I waited in my room

Right before the afternoon
  G                Bm            Em          G               C
I saw you take the corner, I was opening the door when I saw two
               Cm
It wasn't only you

Chorus:
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone (Alone, alone)
                         C
I say I'll get better, I won't (Ooh, ooh)
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone

Just the way that it's always been

I'll be there for myself
                        C
Guess I have to let you go

I'm better off alone
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone

Bridge:

Imagine if it went another way

Imagine if I got the chance to say
     C                                 C7
That all this time I've waited for you here
    G
Oh, imagine if it went another way

Imagine if I got the chance to say
     C                             C7
That all this time I've waited for you

Chorus:
                     G
But maybe I'm better alone (Alone, alone)
                         C
I say I'll get better, I won't (Ooh, ooh)
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone
                       Bm  
Just the way that it's always been
        F
I'll be there for myself
        C       G       C
Guess I have to let you go
               Cm
I'm better off alone
                 G
Maybe I'm better alone

Outro:

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm
                   C
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, hmm
Cm
Ooh, ooh
