C I never knew perfection till C I heard you speak, and now it kills me F Just to hear you say the simple things C Now waking up is hard to do C And sleeping is impossible too F Bb Everything is reminding me of you Bb What can I do? C C It’s not right, not OK Am Am7 D7 Say the words that you say F Maybe we’re better off this way? C C I’m not fine, I’m in pain Am Am7 D7 It’s harder everyday F Maybe we’re better off this way? It’s better that we break… C a fool to let you slip away C I chase you just to hear you say F You’re scared and that you think that I’m insane C The city look so nice from here C Pity I can’t see it clearly F Bb While you’re standing there, it disappears It disappears C C It’s not right, not OK Am Am7 D7 Say the words that you say F Maybe we’re better off this way? C C I’m not fine, I’m in pain Am Am7 D7 It’s harder everyday F Maybe we’re better off this way? It’s better that we break… F G Saw you sitting all alone F G You’re fragile and you’re cold, but that’s all right F Life these days is getting rough G They’ve knocked you down and beat you up Am G But it’s just a rollercoaster anyway, yeah C C It’s not right, not OK Am Am7 D7 Say the words that you say F Maybe we’re better off this way? C C I’m not fine, I’m in pain Am Am7 D7 It’s harder everyday F Maybe we’re better off this way? C C It’s not right, not OK Am Am7 D7 Say the words that you say F Maybe we’re better off this way? C C I’m not fine, I’m in pain Am Am7 D7 It’s harder everyday F Maybe we’re better off this way?

Hi pal!
Great chords! Thanks.
It seems to me though that in the main verse, in the C, the second is not a C. Seems to me that is a different chord. PLease check it and advise! Could be a C5 (0200 instead of standar C 0300)
