Before I Knew Better 
 
C                                     F 
No one thought that I?d jump off that rocky ledge 
     C         G 
So I did and I broke my leg 
C                                F 
Then I let Jim Beam tell I could take some guy 
C                  G 
Twice my size, but old Jim lied 
  Em                                 Am 
I can?t pretend that I ain?t been my life?s own wrecking crew 
    Dm 
And I?m surprised that I?ve survived 
    G 
All I?ve put myself through? 
 
(chorus) 
 
              C                Am 
Before I knew better before I woke up 
        F                                      G 
I did a whole lot of crazy, foolish things I?m not proud of 
                 C      Am 
It was just like me to risk it all 
F                                 G 
Even when the pain outweighed the pleasure 
              C 
Before I knew better 
 
C                                  F 
You were the first to ever make me wanna change 
   C                    G 
My wreckless ways and I almost did 
C                                 F 
Somehow I lost track and wound up givin? in 
       C                       G 
To the late night life and the good time friends 
    Em                                  Am 
You swore to me one day you?d leave and all I had to say 
    Dm 
Was there?s the door what you waitin? for 
        G 
And who needs you anyway? 
 
(repeat chorus) 
 
Dm                                 Am 
Girl I pray somehow someway we can turn this thing around 
  Dm                              G 
I thought your love was something I could live without? 
 
 
(repeat chorus)   key change: 
              G# 
Before I knew? 
              C#              A#m 
Before I knew better before I woke up 
         F#                                     G# 
I said a whole lot of crazy, foolish things I?m not proud of 
                 C#     A#m 
It was just like me to risk it all 
F#                                G# 
Even when the pain outweighed the pleasure 
              C# 
Before I knew better
