Better Half

Intro: D C D C (x4) 


 
D                C 
Well, I see him coming 
Bm           C 
We hold our rocks; we are ready 
D                C 
The things we'll do to him 
Bm          G 
They aren't fit for anyone 
Bm            C 
Hey, this is serious business 
Bm        G 
I'm gonna hate myself 
Bm       C                    D 
Still, I just can't wait to begin 


D             C 
The monster inside me 
Bm            C 
He can't be talked out of anything 
D            C 
He's got an appetite 
Bm          G 
Oh no, he's hungry now 
Bm      C 
I just gotta restrain him 
Bm         G 
The seam inside me grows 
Bm         C              D 
Kiss your better half goodbye 

 
C                                 D 
And all those things you trusted in (come and gone) 
C                                D 
The man that you pride yourself on (come and gone) 
C                               D 
All the control you think you hold (come and gone) 
C 
Anything that can go wrong 
     D                      C 
Will find itself come and gone 


D             C 
His body lies broken 
Bm              C 
Well, hey, some harsh words were spoken 
D          C 
And I feel terrible 
Bm      G 
It just got away 
Bm     C 
Had to make him pay 
Bm      G 
For the hole in my heart 
Bm        C                 D 
It's been my fault from the start 


 
C                                 D 
And all those things you trusted in (come and gone) 
C                                D 
The man that you pride yourself on (come and gone) 
C                               D 
All the control you think you hold (come and gone) 
C 
Anything that can go wrong 
     D                     C 
Will find itself come and gone 


D             C 
The monster inside me

Bm         C              D 
Kiss your better half goodbye 

 
C                             D 
And if you think it all makes sense 
C                       D 
Can you tell the difference 
C                                 D 
Between a quarter and twenty-five cents? 
C 
Anything that can go wrong 
     D                     C 
Will find itself come and gone
