Better As A Memory Chords & Lyrics - Kenny Chesney

Intro: [D] [A] [Bm] [G] x2

I move on like a [D]sinners prayer
And letting go like a [A]levee breaks
Walk away as if I[Bm] don't care
Learn to shoulder my[G] mistakes
Or built to fade like your [D]favorite song
Get reckless when [A]there's no need
Laugh as your stories[Bm] ramble on
Break my heart, but it[G] won't bleed
My only friends are [Bm]pirates
That's just who I [A]am
But I'm [G]better as a [A]memory than as your[D] man

Never sure when the [D]truth won't do
I'm pretty good on a [A]lonely night
I move on the way a [Bm]storm blows through
I never stay, but then [G]again, I might.
I struggle sometimes to [D]find the words
Always sure unt[A]il I doubt
Walk a line until[Bm] it blurs
Build walls too high to[G] climb out
But I'm honest to a[Bm] fault
That's just who [A]I am
I'm [G]better as a [A]memory than as [D]your man

[G]I see you leaning, [D]you're bound to fall
[A]I don't want to be that [D]mistake
I[G]'m just a dreamer and [D]nothing more
Y[G/B]ou should know it before it gets [A]too late

Cause goodbyes are like a [D]roulette wheel
You never know where they're[A] gonna land
First you're spinning, then you're [Bm]standing still
Left holding a [G]losing hand
But one day you're gonna [D]find someone
And right away you'll kn[A]ow it's true
That all of your s[Bm]inking's done
It was just a part of the p[G]assing through
Right there in that m[Bm]oment you'll finally u[A]nderstand
That I was [G]better as a [A]memory than as your [Bm]man [A] [Bm]
[G]Better as a [A]memory than as your [D]man

[D] [A] [Bm] [G]
