Intro: G  G Bb G  C Bb (x2) 
 
C      Bb        G 
Been a long time coming 
 
And the cards were stacked 
                 C                     G 
It's been a long hard road to hell and back 
 
Your love meant trouble 
 
From the day we met 
    C                 G 
You won every hand, I lost every bet 
 
 
                   C 
Now you think that I 
                G 
Should've Known Better 
                 C 
Now I think that I 
                      G 
Should've seen it come 
C        Bb 
My heart sank 
                 G 
When I read that letter 
C                 D 
Sank like a stone, sank like a stone 
 
 
           G 
Cup of cold coffee 
 
Yesterday's mail 
                C 
A bad love like this is always 
         G 
Bound to fail 
                G       G    Bb         G 
Your love meant trouble from the day we met 
C      Bb        C 
If you want your things 
                          G 
They're on the front step 
 
 
                   C 
Now you think that I 
                G 
Should've Known Better 
                 C 
Now I think that I 
                      G 
Should've seen it come 
C        Bb 
My heart sank 
                 G 
When I read that letter 
C                 D 
Sank like a stone, sank like a stone.

G 
All alone in my kitchen  
 
All alnoe in my head 
                C 
Some things you can't take back 
                  G 
Once they've been said 
             G 
I don't know what 
 
This love is for 
      C 
All I know is I 
              G 
Don't want it anymore 
 
 
                   C 
Now you think that I 
                G        D 
Should've Known Better 
                 C 
Now I think that I 
                      G 
Should've seen it come 
C        Bb 
My heart sank 
                 G 
When I read that letter 
C                 D 
Sank like a stone, sank like a stone. 
 
 
 
I did this from a live show. It's pretty darn accurate.
