Better As A Memory Cifras

If you have trouble with barre chords and still want the general sound of the song,
transpose it down 2 half steps and then put a capo on the 2nd fret. Still sounds great
 
 
[Intro]
 
D   A   Bm   G  x2
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
                 D
I move on like a sinners prayer   
                      A
And letting go like a levee breaks   
                 Bm
Walk away as if I don't care   
                    G
Learn to shoulder my mistakes   
                           D
Or built to fade like your favorite song   
                  A
Get reckless when there's no need   
                     Bm
Laugh as your stories ramble on   
                      G
Break my heart, but it won't bleed   
                    Bm
My only friends are pirates   
                  A
That's just who I am   
        G           A                  D
But I'm better as a memory than as your man   
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
                    D
Never sure when the truth won't do   
                     A
I'm pretty good on a lonely night   
                    Bm
I move on the way a storm blows through   
                       G
I never stay, but then again, I might.   
                        D
I struggle sometimes to find the words   
               A
Always sure until I doubt   
                 Bm
Walk a line until it blurs   
                       G
Build walls too high to climb out   
                   Bm
But I'm honest to a fault   
                A
That's just who I am   
    G           A              D
I'm better as a memory than as your man   
 
 
[Bridge]
 
G                  D
I see you leaning, you're bound to fall   
A                       D
I don't want to be that mistake   
 G                     D
I'm just a dreamer and nothing more   
 G/B                              A
You should know it before it gets too late
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
                          D
Cause goodbyes are like a roulette wheel   
                            A
You never know where they're gonna land   
                                   Bm
First you're spinning, then you're standing still   
               G
Left holding a losing hand   
                         D
But one day you're gonna find someone   
                        A
And right away you'll know it's true   
                  Bm
That all of your sinking's done   
                           G
It was just a part of the passing through   
                     Bm                    A
Right there in that moment you'll finally understand   
           G           A                   Bm      A Bm
That I was better as a memory than as your man   
G           A                   D
Better as a memory than as your man
 
 
[Outro]
 
D   A   Bm   G
