Prove You Wrong Lyrics

By: Benjy Davis
Intro: G D Am C
I called you something terrible
Told you not to call
Held you like I didn't care
While you tried not to fall and I
Done you wrong, I know the song
And I know how it ends
And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry you're my best friend
Watched you drive away
Even wave goodbye
And I was fine with everything I said
When I got back inside
I was confronted by this heartache
And I know exactly why - and what I'll do
Gonna treat you like I want somebody else to.
CHORUS:
I'm gonna be a better man
Than the one I was last night
I'm gonna show you who I am
I'm swallowing my pride
I know right now you think I'm just another waste of time
I'm gonna prove you wrong, no lie
Say goodbye to the old me, hello Mr. Right
This world has been a whirlwind
Driving blind and dodging trains
And I was scared and you were scared and we were both scared of the same thing
I want to see you out, put on that old dress
I need to get you in the candlelight of an old Italian restaurant
Your eyes bring out the room, babe
Go ahead, it's safe to assume
It's safe to assume
Didn't mean to leave you out
Just to remove any doubt......
*Side Note*
-When I tabbed this song, I capo-ed the third fret to try and get more of the high
is heard on the mandolin. It stays in the key of G. The only change is that the G is
in an "E-major formation" and the C is played in an "A-major formation". The change
the open sounding chords to ring, like the mandolin. Of course, all of the other chords
be played as bar chords (which I think Benjy does in some of the song anyway, but
at the Chorus E-minor walk-down part) There was a diminished chord at the end of the bridge
I couldn't quite get (probably because of my capo set-up) but the C fills in decently.
