[Strophe]
                   G 
You keep me in your orbit 
                   C 
Well, I know I'm a hard one to please 
                 G 
Give it too much importance 
                    C 
My love'll have you fall to your knees 
                     G 
I tell them this too often 
                   C 
Know better than to bark up my tree 
               Am 
Just for me to fall and leave 
                     D 
Nah, I'd rather just watch you smoke and drink, yeah
[Pre-Refrain]
G                                        C 
Steering clear of any headaches to start 
  
And if we're being honest 
    G                                          C 
I'd rather your body than half of your heart 
  
Or jealous-ridden comments 
      G                                      C 
That come when you let in them feelings that I don't want 
                Am 
I never let 'em know too much 
                  D 
Hate gettin' too emotional, oh, yeah
[Refrain]
G           C 
I'm better off without him 
G           C 
I'm better off being a wild one 
G                  C 
On the road a lot, had to keep it a thousand 
Am                     D 
So that I'm better off not being around ya
[Strophe]
 G                                             C 
Go on and face it, I'll never be ready for you (ready for you) 
           G                                       C 
I swear my love is a curse, make you head over shoes (head over shoes) 
                G                                     C 
Let's put them topics to bed and go fuck on the roof, just to say that we did it 
         Am 
You keep insisting I listen to your proposition 
D 
I dismiss them all, no offense, yeah
[Pre-Refrain]
 G 
Steering clear of any headaches to start 
 C 
And if we're being honest 
G 
I'd rather your body than half of your heart 
C 
Or jealous-ridden comments 
G                                           C 
That come when you let in them feelings that I don't want 
                Am 
I never let 'em know too much 
                 D 
Hate gettin' too emotional, yeah
[Refrain]
G           C 
I'm better off without him 
G           C 
I'm better off being a wild one 
G                  C 
On the road a lot, had to keep it a thousand 
Am                     D 
So that I'm better off not being around ya 
G           C 
I'm better off without him 
G           C 
I'm better off being a wild one 
G                  C 
On the road a lot, had to keep it a thousand 
Am                     D 
So that I'm better off not being around ya
