Verse
[F]
I thought some time alone
[C]
Was what we really needed
[F]
You said this time would hurt more than it helps
[G] [Am]
But I couldn't see that
[F]
I thought it was the end
[Em] [Am]
Of a beautiful story
[Dm] [E]
And so I left the one I loved at home to be alone
[Am]
And I tried and found
[Dm7] [G]
Out this one thing is true
[C] [Dm7]
That I'm nothing without you
I know better now
[Gm7] [C]
And I've had a change of heart
Chorus
[F] [G] [Em] [Am] [G]
I'd rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
[F] [G] [Em] [Gm7] [C]
I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
[F] [B7b5] [E7] [Am] [G] [D]
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
[Dm] [Em] [F] [G] [C]
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
[Dm] [Em] [F]
Whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah
Verse
[G] [F]
And then I met someone
[C]
And thought she could replace you
[F]
We got a long just fine
[G] [Am]
But wasted time because she was not you
[F]
We had a lot of fun
[Em] [Am]
Though we knew we were faking
[Dm] [E]
Love was not impressed with our connection built on lies, on lies
[Am] [Dm7] [G]
So I'm here cause I found this one thing is true
[C] [Dm7]
That I'm nothing without you
I know better now
[Gm7] [C]
And I've had a change of heart
Chorus
[F] [G] [Em] [Am] [G]

I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
[F] [B7b5] [E7] [Am] [G] [D]
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart

I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
[Dm] [Em] [F]
Whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah
