Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Main Riff (8x)

 Tell me, none of your longings

 I don't need them, or you

 And leave me, none of your wisdom

 I don't need your lies, or your truths

 I've been better, when the sky was red

 And a face like yours couldn't make me scared

 I've been better, with the things I've said

 When I took the lead instead of being led

Main Riff (4x)

 Feed me, none of your lines

 I won't fall for them, 'cause I'll lose

 And hold me, to none of my words

 I don't mean them, when I'm with you

 And the cars streak past with a life inside

 Why is my life in your eyes?

 And the windows glow with the hearts they've known

 Why is my heart never mine?

 I've been better, when the sky was red

 And a face like yours couldn't make me scared

 I've been better, with the things I've said

 When I took the lead instead of being led

[x2]

Main theme (8x)

 I've been better, when the sky was red

 And a face like yours couldn't make me scared

 I've been better, with the things I've said

 When I took the lead instead of being led

Main theme going on until song has finished ...

 I been better, been better, oh oh oh

 Been better, I been better, oh oh oh

 I been better, I been better, oh oh oh

 Been better, been better, oh oh oh
