Before I Knew Better
[C]No one thought that I’d jump off that [F]rocky ledge
So I [C]did and I [G]broke my leg
[C]Then I let Jim Beam tell I could [F]take some guy
[C]Twice my size, but [G]old Jim lied
I [Em]can’t pretend that I ain’t been my [Am]life’s own wrecking crew
And [Dm]I’m surprised that I’ve survived
All [G]I’ve put myself through…
(chorus)
Before I knew [C]better before I w[Am]oke up
I did a [F]whole lot of crazy, foolish things I’m [G]not proud of
It was just like [C]me to r[Am]isk it all
[F]Even when the pain outweighed the [G]pleasure
Before I knew [C]better
[C]You were the first to ever make me [F]wanna change
My [C]wreckless ways and I [G]almost did
[C]Somehow I lost track and wound up [F]givin’ in
To the [C]late night life and the [G]good time friends
You [Em]swore to me one day you’d leave and [Am]all I had to say
Was [Dm]there’s the door what you waitin’ for
And who [G]needs you anyway…
(repeat chorus)
[Dm]Girl I pray somehow someway we can [Am]turn this thing around
I [Dm]thought your love was something [G]I could live without…
(repeat chorus) key change:
Before I knew…[G#]
Before I knew [C#]better before I [A#m]woke up
I said a [F#]whole lot of crazy, foolish things I’m [G#]not proud of
It was just like [C#]me to r[A#m]isk it all
[F#]Even when the pain outweighed the [G#]pleasure
Before I knew [C#]better
