Better Me
Recorded by Tommy Overstreet
Written by Sterling Whipple

C
She sat down near the bar
F G7
Like a diamond that's only just been pawned
C
Tension stirred the darkness
F G7
As the hunters quickly loaded up their guns

C F
I wondered at myself as I scrambled
G7
For the place there by her side
C
Ah she's not my kind of game
F G7
But I can see that she won't stay alone tonight

C F
And better me than someone who used her
G7 C
Better me than somebody cruel
F
Such easy prey in a night full of hunger
G7 C
Better me than somebody cruel


With pretty words so sincere
F G7
I eased into her mind and took her body home
C F
She flinked away a tear and told me just tonight
G7
She couldn't stand to be alone

C
She spoke about a man she'd lost
F G7
And looked at me I knew then what she had to hear
C F
Something in her moved me and I took
G7
Her in my arms and said I loved her

C F
Better me than someone who used her
G7 C Am
Better me than somebody cruel

Em
At first my love for her woke up the pleasure
F
And the thrill that a first love for me
C Am
Was just an emptiness to build

These things never turn out
Em
Like you think they will
F G7 C G7
Cause now and then it all turns into love

C F
And better me than someone who used her
G7 C
Better me than somebody cruel
F
Such easy prey in a world full of hunger
G7 C
Better me than somebody cruel
