Sara Bareilles

Before I Knew Better

Don't know where to put you anymore
You can't be kept inside my dresser drawer
I find the pieces of you in my dreams
And in the evenings
Spill out the edge of my mind.
Memories of you feel like they're miles wide
It's all I can do to get to the other side
Of these evenings
Chorus
I'll see you tonight in the back of my mind
When I remember your skin like I remembered it then
When you would dress me in white with the look in your eyes
Ebm Ebm>F>F#
Knew you'd love me forever
Before I ever knew better
Verse II. (do verse I chords)
Can't see myself back beside you
But I see nobody else
Nobody's perfect but I'm perfectly happy to keep on
Bringing this love down off the shelf.
Chorus
I'll see you tonight in the back of my mind
When I remember your skin like I remembered it then
When you would dress me in white with the look in your eyes
Ebm Ebm>F>F#
Knew you'd love me forever
Before I ever knew..
Bridge
Better off, I couldn't say if I'd be better off without a love I live without anyway
Better off, oooh. Who knows? See you tonight.
C# G# Ebm G# 4x
Before I ever knew better
note: '>' here means slide... like Ebm>F>F#, it means from the chrord Ebm, you slide
fingers to the next chord, which is F, then to the next chord, which is F#
