Verse:

F F Am Am
There’s no combination of words
Dm Dm C C
I could put on the back of a postcard,
Bb Bb F F
No song that I could sing
Gm Gm C C
But I can try for your heart,
F F Am Am Dm Dm C C
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things,
Bb Bb F F
Like a shoebox of photographs,
Gm Gm C C
With sepia tone loving,
F F Am Am
Love is the answer
Dm Dm C C
At least for most of the questions in my heart,
Bb Bb F F Gm Gm
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
C C
And how come it’s so hard?
F F Am Am
It’s not always easy,
Dm Dm C C
And sometimes life can be deceiving,
Bb Bb F F Gm Gm C C
I’ll tell you one thing, it’s always better when we’re together

Chorus:

Bb Bb C C
Mmm, it’s always better when we’re together
Bb Bb C C
Yeah, we’ll look at the stars when we’re together
Bb Bb C C
Well, it’s always better when we’re together
Bb Bb C C
Yeah, it’s always better when we’re together

F F Am Am Dm Dm C C Bb Bb F F Gm Gm C C x2

Verse 2:

F F
And all of these moments
Am Am Dm Dm C C
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
Bb Bb F F
But I know that they’ll be gone,
Gm Gm C C
When the morning light sings
F F Am Am
And brings new things,
Dm Dm C C
But tomorrow night you see
Bb Bb F F
That they’ll be gone too,
Gm Gm C C
Too many things I have to do,
F F Am Am
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Dm Dm C C
Into my day to day scene
Bb Bb F F
I'd be under the impression
Gm Gm C C
I was somewhere in between
F F
With only two,
Am Am
Just me and you,
Dm Dm C C
Not so many things we got to do
Bb Bb F F
or places we got to be
Gm Gm C C
We'll sit beneath the mango tree, now,

Bb Bb C C
Yeah It's always better when we're together
Bb Bb C C
Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together
Bb Bb C C
Well, it's always better when we're together
Bb Bb C C
Yeah, it's always better when we're together

F F Am Am Dm Dm C C Bb Bb F F Gm Gm C C x2

Bridge:

Gm Gm C C
I believe in memories
Gm Gm C C
they look so, so pretty when I sleep
Gm Gm C C
Hey now, and when I wake up,
Gm Gm C C
you look so pretty sleeping next to me
Bb Bb C C
But there is not enough time,
Bb Bb C C
There is no, no song I could sing
Bb Bb C C
and there is no combination of words I could say
Bb Bb C C
but I will still tell you one thing

We're Better together

F F Am Am Dm Dm C C Bb Bb F F Gm Gm C C x2
