[Verse 1]
C F
I thought sometime alone
C
was what we really needed
F G
you said this time would hurt more than it helps
Am C
but I couldn't see that
F
I thought it was the end
C
of a beautiful story
F C Am -G
and so I left the one I loved at home to be alone (alone)
Am
and I tried to find
F G
out if this one thing is true
C F
that I'm nothing without you
Am
I know better now
G C
and I've had a change of heart
[CHORUS]
F G C Am7
I'd rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
F-G Am F
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
F G C
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah
[VERSE 2]
C F
And then I met someone
C
and thought she could replace you
F
we got a long just fine
G Am
we wasted time because she was not you
C F
we had a lot of fun
C
though we knew we were faking
F C Am - G

Am F G

that I'm nothing without you
Am
I know better now
G C
and I've had a change of heart
(Chorus)
