Personnally I prefer this version, where the Em has some strumming:

        Em          G  D*                           C     Em   G  D* C  
I must be crazy to tell you what I'm telling you now
         Em              G  D*                  C         Em   G  D* C  
It's kinda personal but I'm way beyond being proud
                Em          G  D*                       C      Em   G  D*    C  
I just spent a year saying no to this man chasing me down
          Em             G  D*                 C      Am  C  
Then he got over me the minute I turned around
         D*
I was so hell bent on being alone
A Cleft-over dream I should have out-grown
Now it's Gtoo little Amtoo late
I’ve been Creplaced
          D*
Why did I wait so long?
Just a Gfew minutes Amtoo late
The tables have tCurned
                D*
And what have I learnt?
           Am  D*                         Em  C  
That life is better lived with open eyes
                        C  D*
My eyes were closed
                            Em   G  D* C  
And now I'm watching him go
        Em                 G  D*                      C     Em   G  D* C  
I look at couples made of people who just wanna be free
            Em                 G  D*                      C     Em   G  D* C  
It proves the grass is always greener if they wanna be me
        Em               G  D*                        C     Em   G  D* C  
Even the mention of her name brings a smile to his face
                 Am                C  D*         Em  
It isn't easy to admit it but he's in a good place
          D*          
No longer hell bent on being alone
A Cleft-over dream I've finally out-grown
But it's Gtoo little Amtoo late
I've been Creplaced
          D*
Why did I wait so long?
Just a Gfew minutes Amtoo late
The tables have Cturned
                D*
And what have I learnt?
           Am  D*                     Am  
That life is better lived with open eyes
               Bm      Am   C  D*
Open eyes   Open eyes
I gave Gtoo little Amtoo late
I've been Creplaced
          D*
Why did I wait so long?
Just a Gfew minutes Amtoo late
The tables have Cturned
                D*
And what have I learnt?
              Am           C  D*            Em  C  
That life is better lived with open eyes
                     C  D*  
My eyes were closed
                          Em   G  D* C  
And now I'm watching him go
