D               Em                 C

D        Em            C
I hang on everything about you
D             Em                  C
You think I'd settle down cuz I'm older
but I roll with the changes is all

I'm same old trailer trash in new shoes

She gets sad when theres nothing going on yeah
D            C                   G      C
She says it makes her feel damn worthless

Chorus:

Is better than nothing it's better than nothing

I put my hands around your shoulder
you're say you're scared is all
I think I know too much about you
You think this life would make me colder,
I'd give in to the alcohol
I put my loving arms around you, child

You knew damn well there was nothing going on, yeah
Is that what makes you feel damn worthless?

Chorus:
Well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
Good god

Any love at all, no, no
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing

Em          C                       D
says she's sorry now buts its not enough to
pull you up
       Em  C D
she's sorry

I wake up quick just like I want to
Yeah, but I stay out much too late

Well, you think this life can get a bit unkind
But she stays down 'til the worth is gone
And pulls you up, she pulls you up, yeah
She pulls you up, and over, over

Chorus:
You got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing
Good god
Well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Any love at all, no no
It's better than nothing
Well, it's better than nothing

Yeah well, you got to think, with a girl like that
Well, you got to think
With a girl like that
You've got to think with a girl like that
Well, thank her
