I'D BE BETTER OFF (in a pine box)
(G)I SAID THE NIGHT YOU LEFT ME
NOTHIN (C)WORSE COULD EVER (G)HAPPEN
BUT (C)SEEING YOU WITH (G)SOMEONE ELSE
PROVED THAT I WAS (D)WRONG
(C)AND WHEN YOUR EYES MET MINE, I KNEW
(G)THAT YOU WERE GONE FOREVER
ALONG WITH ALL THE REASONS (D)I HAD FOR HANGING (G)ON
CHO:
I'D BE (C)BETTER OFF IN A PINE BOX
ON A SLOW TRAIN BACK FROM (G)GEORGIA
IN A GRAY WALLS OF A (D)PRISON DOING (C)TIME
I (C)THINK I'D RATHER (D)DIE AND GO TO (G)HELL AND FACE THE (C)DEVIL
(G)THAN TO LIE HERE WITH (C)YOU AND HIM (D)TOGETHER ON MY (G)MIND
I (G)ALWAYS THOUGHT SOMEDAY, WE (C)MIGHT GET BACK (G)TOGETHER
I (C)JUST THOUGHT (G)YOU NEEDED TIME
TO SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND (D)FLY
(C)BUT WHEN I SAW THE LIVIN WAY, YOU (G)HELD ONTO EACH OTHER
IT WAS ALL THAT I COULD DO, (D)NOT TO BREAK RIGHT DOWN AND (G)CRY
REPEAT CHO: 2X'S
