F#m           D              F#m            D
Sometimes forgotten, and got lost in this space
     F#m        D             Bm              C#m
The waves of a history, you shouldn’t have to chase
And think of the sessions, at the side of the road
Two times I’ve tried now, I’ve given up

                D
You’ve been in your game
                  F#m
And I’ve been in my game
         D                   F#m
Baby it hurts but it’s easy enough
                     D
‘Cause I’ve been in my game
                    F#m
And you’ve been in your game
             Bm                   C#m
I know it’s tough but it’s never enough

Chorus:
             D
I’ll be off better on rooftops
             F#m
I’ll be off better as the day draws
            C#m
I’ll be oh better off without you
                Bm                   C#m
And I’ll be oh better off without you
Tell me you love me, tell me you need me
Tell me you’re fading and you laughed at my doubt
‘Cause I’ll be better off without you
I’ll be better off without you

When would you come around
And you could hardly see
And I couldn’t walk it out
If I was on company
And all that this ever was
Is words falling down
Maybe you’ll understand
When I’m not around

You’ve been in your game
And I’ve been in my game
Baby it hurts but it’s easy enough
‘Cause I’ve been in my game
And you’ve been in your game
I know it’s tough but it’s never enough

Chorus:
I’ll be off better on rooftops
I’ll be off better as the day draws
I’ll be oh better off without you
And I’ll be oh better off without you
Tell me you love me, tell me you need me
Tell me you’re fading and you laughed at my doubt
‘Cause I’ll be better off without you
I’ll be better off without you
Tell me you love me, tell me you need me
Tell me you’re fading and you laughed at my doubt
‘Cause I’ll be better off without you
´Cause I’ll be better off without you
