D I move on like a sinners prayer A And letting go like a levee breaks Bm Walk away as if I don't care G Learn to shoulder my mistakes D Or built to fade like your favorite song A Get reckless when there's no need Bm Laugh as your stories ramble on G Break my heart, but it won't bleed Bm My only friends are pirates A That's just who I am G A D But I'm better as a memory than as your man Never sure when the truth won't do I'm pretty good on a lonely night I move on the way a storm blows through I never stay, but then again, I might I struggle sometimes to find the words Always sure until I doubt Walk a line until it blurs Build walls too high to climb out But I'm honest to a fault That's just who I am I'm better as a memory than as your man G D I see you leaning, you're bound to fall A D I don't want to be that mistake G D/F# I'm just a dreamer and nothing more Em A You should know it before it gets too late Cause goodbyes are like a roulette wheel You never know where they're gonna land First you're spinning, then you're standing still Left holding a losing hand But one day you're gonna find someone And right away you'll know it's true That all of your seeking's done It was just a part of the passing through Right there in that moment you'll finally understand That I was better as a memory than as your man Better as a memory than as your man You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  D  Em  F#  G  Bm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
