[Intro]
C/G Fmaj7 Am7 Em6 Em G
[Verse 1]
C/G
If you were a teacher
Fmaj7
I would fail your class
Am7
Take it over and over
Em6 Em G
'Til you noticed me
Am7
If you were a waiting room
Fmaj7
I would never see a doctor
C/G
I would sit there
Em G
With my first aid kit and bleed
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Fmaj7 C/G
I want to be the power ballad
Gsus4 Am7
That lifts you up and hold you down
Fmaj7 C/G
I wanna be the broken love song
Gsus4 G
That feeds your misery
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C/G
And I can wish all that I want
Fmaj7 C/G
But it won't bring us together
Gsus4
Plus I know whatever happens to me
Gsus4 C/G
I know it's for the better
[Break]
C/G Fmaj7 Am7 Em6 G
[Verse 2]
C/G Fmaj7
And when broken bodies are washed ashore
Am7 Em G
Who am I to ask for more, more, more?
Am7 Fmaj7
But you're breathing in my open mouth
C/G
You're the gun in my lips
Em G
That will blow my brains out
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Fmaj7 C/G
I want to make you drive all night
G Am7
Just because I said maybe you should come over
Fmaj7 C/G
I want to make you fall in love
G Am7
As hard as my poor parents teenage daughter
Fmaj7
She'll be the best you ever had if you let her
[Instrumental Break]
Am7 Fmaj7 C/G Em6 G
[Outro]
C/G
I know it's for the better
Fmaj7
Know it's for the better
Am7
Know it's for the better
Gsus4 G
Know it's for the better
Am7
Know it's for the better
Fmaj7
Know it's for the better
C/G
Know it's for the better
Gsus4 G
Know it's for the better
Am7
Know it's for the better
Fmaj7
Know it's for the better
C/G
Know it's for the better
Gsus4 G
Know it's for the better
Am7
Know it's for the better
Fmaj7
Know it's for the better
C/G
Know it's for the better
Gsus4
I never grew up with you
Gsus4
And you're not my waiting room
C/G

im only a beginner but this tab given its difficulty is worth learning because of how accurate it is to the actual song. :)

I don't know if I'm listening to a different version of the recording but the one I'm listening to needs the capo on the 2nd fret rather than the 1st fret. All the chords are the same, as writing, so it's not a case of transposing. Great Tab though, thank you

You actually nailed this great job. Phoebe has a unique way of playing these common chords.
