------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maroon 5 - Better That We Break ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Joel Jimenez Email: ch3zyp00fs@yahoo.com Created: June 22nd, 2007 Standard Tuning Capo can be used to adjust key for singing. When I play, I like to transition from D to Dsus4 with a hammer on the high E string. It's not necessary, but it sounds better I think. Chords used: E A D G B E ----------- G 3 2 0 0 3 3 G/F# 2 - 0 0 3 3 Em7 0 2 2 0 3 3 Cadd9 - 3 2 0 3 3 D - - 0 2 3 2 Dsus4 - - 0 2 3 3 Intro: ======= G G/f# Em7 Em7 x2 Verse 1: ========= G I never knew perfection ‘til G/f# I heard you speak, and now it kills me Em7 Just to hear you say the simple things. G Now waking up is hard to do G/f# And sleeping’s impossible too Em7 Cadd9 Everything’s reminding me of you Cadd9 What can I do? Chorus: ======== G G/f# It’s not right, not okay Em7 Cadd9 Say the word that you'll say D Maybe we’re better off this way G G/f# I’m not fine, I’m in pain Em7 Cadd9 It’s harder everyday D Maybe we’re better off this way D It’s better that we break.. Verse 2: ========= G A fool to let you slip away G/f# I chase you just to hear you say Em7 Cadd9 You’re scared and that you think that I’m insane G The city looks so nice from here G/f# Pity I can’t see it clearly Em7 D While you’re standing there, it disappears D It disappears Chorus: ======== G G/f# It’s not right, not okay Em7 Cadd9 Say the word that you'll say D Maybe we’re better off this way G G/f# I’m not fine, I’m in pain Em7 Cadd9 It’s harder everyday D Maybe we’re better off this way D It’s better that we break up Bridge: ======== Cadd9 D Saw you sitting all alone Cadd9 D You’re fragile and you’re cold, but that’s all right Cadd9 Life these days is getting rough D It knocks you down and beats you up Cadd9 D But it’s just a roller coaster anyway, yeah Chorus: ======== G G/f# It’s not right, not okay Em7 Cadd9 Say the word that you'll say D Maybe we’re better off this way G G/f# I’m not fine, I’m in pain Em7 Cadd9 It’s harder everyday D Maybe we’re better off this way G G/f# It’s not right, not okay Em7 Cadd9 Say the word that you'll say D Maybe we’re better off this way G G/f# I’m not fine, I’m in pain Em7 Cadd9 It’s harder everyday D Maybe we’re better off this way D It’s better that we break.. baby
