"Should've Known Better"
This was tabbed from a live performance that was on YouTube. I dug it.
This is tabbed with the guitar at Standard Tuning, and the Capo on the 1st Fret.
If you watch he video online, the guitars are tuned a half-step down, with capo on the 2nd fret.

VERSE
Am
Another sleepless night I can't explain
F
Somebody said they heard me call your name.
G F
The radio won't let you leave my mind
G F
I know it's over , but I don't know why.
CHORUS
C G F
Should've known better than to fall in love with you
Dm
Now love is just a faded memory.
C G F
Should've known better, now I'm a prisoner to this pain
Dm C F G
And my heart still aches for you.
VERSE
Am
There was no risk that I wouldn't take
F
Not a promise that I didn't make.
G F
All I asked was that you just hold on
G F
And now I'm wondering what I did wrong.
CHORUS
C G F
Should've known better than to fall in love with you
Dm
Now love is just a faded memory.
C G F
Should've known better, now I'm a prisoner to this pain
Dm C F G
And my heart still aches for you.
BRIDGE
F
I gave you all of my body and soul
F
Never believing we might lose control
F
I took my hands off the wheel.
VERSE
Am
I can't remember if the lies were true
F
It's been a million years since I touched you.
G F
I thought time might help me win this game
G F
But being away from you is slowly driving me insane.

I wish the pre notes you added before the song were removable from the downloaded pdf. While I appreciate the comments people make before they do the song, they are not needed most of the time when we print off the song. It Just takes up paper space.
having said that, this is a great version of the song. I have transposed it +2 and in standard tuning I capo on three. It fits my voice better.

If you put the capo on 3 it's in key with the original song

This is a pretty cool acoustic performance of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1n8QyuNVn0 Lots of little embellishments in the chords. The same tuning as noted above in this tab (half step down to Eb, capo on 2).
