Verse 1
Bm G
From the moment that we met,
D Asus4-A
my world was turned around, upside down,
Bm G
To some degree I still regret,
D Asus4-A
My memory, for keeping you around,
Pre-Chorus
Em7 D/F# G
Girl I thought that you were mine,
Em7
But my broken heart's been shattered,
D/F# G
One too many times,
Chorus
D Bm
I don't want to see you anymore, I'm just not that strong,
A G
I love it when you're here, but I'm better when you're gone,
D Bm
I'm certain that I'm given, and oh how you can take,
A G
There's no use in lookin' there's nothing left for you to break,
Em7 D/F# G Em7 D/F# G
Baby please, release me, let my heart, rest,

Verse 2
Someone let you down again,
So you turned to me, your convenient friend,
Oh but I know what you're doin, and what you hope to find,
I've seen a thousand times,
Pre-Chorus
All the fire we had before,
Are now just bitter ashes,
Left scattered on the floor,
Chorus

I love it when you're here, but I'm better when you're gone,

The variations of D chords above are not different other than the voicings, which in
country songs is an integral part of the song as most country songs use very popular
and usually overused chord patterns and so country musicians have to concentrate on
their voicings to bring a sense of originality to the song.

In the next verse, the electric guitar in the background is playing around on
some suspensions in a small riff which is chordally derived from the on we heard
in the intro which means that if you like you CAN get away with a Bm7sus2 instead of
Bm7, but only if you are really being back by a band!
Bm7 Gsus2
Someone let you down again
D(1)
So you turn to me
Asus4
Your convenient friend
Bm7 Gsus2
Oh but I know what you’re doing
D(1)
And what you hope to find
Asus4
I’ve seen it a thousand times
Em7sus4 F#/D Gsus2
Oh the fire we had before
Em7sus4 F#/D
Are now just bitter ashes
Gsus2
Left scattered on the floor
D(2)

Bm7(2)
I’m just not that strong
Asus4
I love it when you’re here,
Gsus2
But I’m better when you’re gone
D(2) Bm7(2)

Asus4
There’s no use in you looking
Gsus2
There’s nothing left for you to break
Em7sus F#/D Gsus2
Baby please release me
(careful below as they play one bar less than you would 'feel' before the solo!)
Em7sus F#/D Gsus2 Bm7sus2 Bm7
Let my heart rest in pieces
Yeaaahh...................
SOLO - D(3), Bm7(2), Asus4, Gsus2
D(2)
And I don’t want to see you anymore
Bm7(2)
I’m just not that strong
Asus4
I love it when you’re here,
Gsus2
But I’m better when you’re gone
D(2) Bm7(2)
I’m certain that I’ve given and oh how you can take
Asus4
There’s no use in you looking
Gsus2
There’s nothing left for you to break
Em7sus F#/D Gsus2
Baby please release me
Em7sus F#/D Gsus2
We both know that you don't need me
Em7sus F#/D Gsus2
Let my heart rest in pieces
Here again we see the intro motif reappear, this time however it is best to play it chordally
as follows with the chords changing in rhythm to the riff:
BAR 1 2 3 4
|Bm7sus2 Bm7| Bm7sus2 Bm7(3)| Bm7sus2 Bm7| Bm7sus2 Bm7(3)| x2
You should be able to see that the motif is all that is changing between these chords but by
presenting it like this it provides a harmonically pleasing voice!
You can also get away with playing it as in the intro of course, depending on whether you want
to finish it loudly or delicately!
