Capo 2
Verse 1:
B E
he and I had something beautiful
C#m B
but so dysfunctional, it couldn't last
B E
I loved him so but I let him go
C#m B
‘cause I knew he'd never love me back
Pre-chorus:
C#m
such pain as this
B
shouldn't have to be experienced
C#m
I'm still reeling from the loss,
B F#
still a little bit delirious
Chorus:
G#m E B
near to you, I am healing
F# G#m
but it's taking so long
G#m E
'cause though he's gone
B
and you are wonderful
F# G#m
it's hard to move on
C#m E F# G#m
yet, I'm better near to you.
Verse 2:
B E
you and I have something different
C#m B
and I'm enjoying it cautiously
B
I'm battle scarred,
E
but I am working oh so hard
C#m B
to get back to who I used to be
Pre-chorus:
C#m B
he's disappearing, fading steadily
C#m
well, I'm so close to being yours,
B F#
won’t you stay with me, please
Chorus:
G#m E B
near to you, I am healing
F# G#m
but it's taking so long
E
'cause though he's gone
B
and you are wonderful
F# G#m
it’s hard to move on
C#m E F#
yet, I'm better near to you
instrumental:
C#m G# C#m G#
Bridge:
C#m G#
I only know that
C#m G#
I am better where you are

I only know that
C#m G#
I am better where you are
C#m G# E
I only know that I belong
F#
where you are
Chorus:
G#m E B
near to you, I am healing
F# G#m
but it's taking so long
E
'cause though he's gone
B
and you are wonderful
F# G#m
it’s hard to move on
C#m E F# G#m
yet, I'm better near to you
C#m E F# B
yet, I'm better near to you
