I thought some time [F] alone [F] was what we really [C] needed.
You said this time would hurt more than it helped,
but [G] I [Am] couldn't see that.
I thought it was [F] the end of a beautiful [Em] story.
[Am]
And so I left [Dm] the one I love at home to be [E] alone.
And [Am] I tried and found out [Dm] this one thing is [G] true,
that [C] I'm nothing without [Dm] you.
I know better now, and [Gm] I've had a change of [C]
heart.
I'd rather [F] have bad times with [Gm] you than [Em] good times with someone else.
[G] I'd rather be [F] beside you in a [Gm] small, [B] than safe [Em] and warm by [Gm] myself.
[C] I'd rather have hard times [B]
together [E] than to [Am] have it [G] easy or [D] far.
[Dm] I'd rather [Em] have the [F]
one who [G] holds my [C] heart.
[Dm] [D]
And then I met [F] someone, [G] and thought she could [C] replace you.
We got along [F] just fine, but wasted time [G] because she [Am] was not here.
[A]
[A] We had a lot [F] of fun, though we knew we [Em] were faking.
[Am]
Love was not [Dm] impressed with our connection built on [E] lies.
So [Am] I'm here because I found this one thing is [G] true,
that [C] I'm nothing without [Dm] you.
I [D] know better now, and [Gm] I've had a change [C] of heart.
I'd rather [F] have bad times with [G] you [Dm] than [Em] good times with someone [Am]
else.
I'd rather be [F] beside you in a [G]
small, than safe [Em] and warm by [Gm] myself.
[C] I'd rather [F] have hard times [B]
together [E] than to [Am] have it [G] easy [D] or far.

one [G] who holds my heart.
[Am]
[G] Who [Dm] holds my heart.
[C] I [Fm] can't blame you if you [Bb]
turn away from me like I've done [Cm] to you.
[Eb] I [Fm] can only prove the things I [G] say [F] with time.
Please [Ebm] be mine.
[Db] I'd rather [Gb] have bad times with you [Ab]
than [Fm] good times with someone [Bbm] else.
I'd rather be [Gb] beside you in [Ab] a small, than [Fm] safe and warm by [Abm] myself.
