Lyrics
Better Than I Ever Could - August 25, 2009
Capo 6
G------------------C
I took a taxi to the club
D---------------------------C
Where you were singing all the songs I wrote for you
I took a seat over in the corner
Ordered a beer and sent a drink right up to you
Daintily effortlessly
Bringing to life all my words and melodies
Chorus:
G----------------------C
That's my song she's singing
Ringing in your ears
That's my dream she's living
Voice pure and clear
G-----------D----------C
She is singing it better than I ever could
I sold my first guitar
And pawned all my dreams right off to you
Look at that fire in her eyes
Long for a time when mine was burning too
Pay the tab, hail a cab
You'll never guess what song came on the radio
