[Verse]
E B
Darlin' after you left I got that promotion
E
They transferred me out to La Joya right on the ocean
And now I'm makin' more money than I can spend
A
I've got a house on the beach and a bunch of new friends
F#
Oh, you oughta hear what they say
B
Tellin' me that I've got it made...
[Chorus]
A
But, I've been better
E
Yeah, I miss those times when we were still together
B
Right now lookin' back I don't think the past has ever been this clear
A
And I realize sittin' here as I write this letter
B E
Oh, I've been better.
[Verse]
E B
I've been seein' a girl that I met out in Spring Valley
E
She's havin' the time of her life, least that's what she tells me
She says it's love and to tell you the truth
A
I've tried my best to feel that way too
F# B
Oh, but I always realize when I look into her eyes...
[Chorus]
A
That I've been better
E
Yeah, I miss those times when we were still together
B
Right now lookin' back I don't think the past has ever been this clear
A
And I realize sittin' here as I write this letter
B E
Oh, I've been better.
[Solo]
E-B-E-A-F#-E-B-E
[Chorus]
A
Oh, I've been better
E
I miss those times when we were still together
B
Right now lookin' back I don't think the past has ever been this clear
A
And I realize sittin' here as I write this letter
B A
Oh, I've been better.
B E
Oh, I've been better.
