I can't even think of one good reason
Why I'm always thinkin 'bout leavin
's not like everything's so horrible
w'Been together for a few years now
And you know all my ins and outs
But everything's way to comfortable
From the moment I wake
I plan my escape
I'm not scared
Cause I know there's something out there waiting for me
And I swear
That I'll find it someday
Just wait and see
I don't care
That you call me crazy
I can't stay cause I need room to breathe
There's nothing left to say
Better sorry than safe
Sometimes I wish you cheated on me
Then leavin here would be so easy
It's time to take a chance and give you up
In the morning I wake
And make my escape
I'm not scared
Cause I know there's something out there waiting for me
And I swear
That I'll find it someday
Just wait and see
I don't care
That you call me crazy
I can't stay cause I need room to breathe
There's nothing left to say
Better sorry than safe

I'm not scared
Cause I know there's something out there waiting for me
And I swear
That I'll find it someday
Just wait and see
I don't care
That you call me crazy
I can't stay cause I need room to breathe
There's nothing left to say
Better sorry than safe
ahoooooooo Yeah
There's nothing left to say
The Chords in the first part sound good as 6th string bar chords. Except the E
which sounds better as a 5th string A shapes chord.
When the key changes I use mostly 5th string A and Am shapes at the appropriate fret.
