Intro: (C) (C) (C) (C)

There's a (C) stack of pizza boxes 
And cigarette stuffed beer bottles up on (F) my TV 
But it's better than I (G) thought it'd (C) be 
There's a (C) pile of dirty laundry 
Where I got the clothes I got on me 
And they're (F) almost clean 
It's better than I (G) thought it'd (C) be 

 I toss and (C) turn half the (D#) night 
 But the (F) other half I (C) sleep alright 
 I eat enough to soak up what I (G) drink 
 I'm still (C) lonesome I'm still (D#) blue 
 And I'm (F) still all tore up (C) over you 
 But it's better than I (G) thought it'd (C) be 

You pretended not to know me 
When you saw me at the grocery 
Unexpectedly 
But it was better than I thought it'd be 
And with every day that passes 
My love ain't as everlastin' 
As it used to seem 
Yeah it's better than I thought it'd be 

Repeat Chorus Twice
