"You Can Do Better Than Me" off the album "Narrow Stairs"
G, C, G, C  
G   C   G   C   Am   G(C, G, C)
I'm starting to feel we stay together out of fear of dying alone
I've been Gslipping through the Cyears, my oGld clothes don't Cfit like
Am   C   G(C, G, C)
they once did, so they hang like ghosts of the people I've been.
but it's like my Gheart can't conCtain i Gfall in Clove every dAmay
G(C, G, C)
and i feel like a fool.
I Ghave to face the tCruth, that Gno one could ever Clook at me like you dAmo
C   G(C, G, C)
like I'm something worth holding on to.
There's Dtimes I think of lAmeaving, but it's sEmomething I'll never dCo.
Cause yGou can do bDetter than Eme, but AmI can't do bCetter than Gyou.
GYou can do bDetter than Eme, but AmI can't do Cbetter than Gyou.
