Bmaj7 Emaj7
C#m7 F#
[Verse 1]
Bmaj7
You keep me in your orbit
Emaj7
Well, I know I'm a hard one to please
Bmaj7
Give it too much importance
Emaj7
My love'll have you fall to your knees
Bmaj7
I tell them this too often
Emaj7
Know better than to bark up my tree
C#m7
Just for me to fall and leave
F#
Nah, I'd rather just watch you smoke and drink, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Bmaj7 Emaj7
Steering clear of any headaches to start
And if we're being honest
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I'd rather your body than half of your heart
Or jealous-ridden comments
Bmaj7 Emaj7
That come when you let in them feelings that I don't want
C#m7
I never let 'em know too much
F#
Hate gettin' too emotional, oh, yeah
[Chorus]
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I'm better off without him
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I'm better off being a wild one
Bmaj7 Emaj7
On the road a lot, had to keep it a thousand
C#m7 F#
So that I'm better off not being around ya
[Verse 2]
Bmaj7 Emaj7
Go on and face it, I'll never be ready for you, ready for you
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I swear my love is a curse, make you head over shoes, head over shoes
Bmaj7 Emaj7
Let's put them topics to bed and go fuck on the roof, just to say that we did it
C#m7
You keep insisting I listen to your proposition
F#
I dismiss them all, no offense, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Bmaj7 Emaj7
Steering clear of any headaches to start
And if we're being honest
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I'd rather your body than half of your heart
Or jealous-ridden comments
Bmaj7 Emaj7
That come when you let in them feelings that I don't want
C#m7
I never let 'em know too much
F#
Hate gettin' too emotional, oh, yeah
[Chorus]
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I'm better off without him
Bmaj7 Emaj7
I'm better off being a wild one
Bmaj7 Emaj7
On the road a lot, had to keep it a thousand
C#m7 F#
So that I'm better off not being around ya
