Jack Johnson, Better Together (2005)
Key: :[A#] (w: Jack Johnson)
INTRO: [*R1]
VERSE 1:
[A#] There's no combi-
[A#/A]-nation or words I could
[Gm7] put on the back of a
[F] postcard
[Eb] No
[Eb/D] song that I could
[Cm] sing but try for
[F] your heart
[A#] Our
[A#/A] dreams, and they are
[Gm7] made out of real
[F] things
Like a,
[Eb] shoebox of
[Eb/D] photographs with
[Cm] sepiatone
[F] loving
VERSE 2:
[A#] Love is the
[A#/A] answer, at least for
[Gm7] most of the questions in
[F] my heart
[Eb] Like why are we
[Eb/D] here? and where do we
[Cm] go? And how come it's
[F] so hard?
[A#] It's not always
[A#/A] easy and sometimes
[Gm7] life can be de-
[F]-ceiving
[Eb] I'll tell you one
[Eb/D] thing its always
[Cm] better when we're to-
[F]-gether
CHORUS:
[F]^
[Eb] Mmm, It's always
[Eb]^
[F] better when we're together
[F]^
[Eb] Yeah, Look at the
[Eb]^
[F] stars when we're together
[F]^
[Eb] Well, It's always
[Eb]^
[F] better when we're together
[F]^
[Eb] Yeah, It's always
[Eb]^
[F] better when we're together
BREAK:
[A#] [A#/A] [Gm7] [F] //
[Eb] [Eb/D] [Cm] [F]
[A#] [A#/A] [Gm7] [F] //
[Eb] [Eb/D] [Cm] [F]
VERSE 3:
And all of these
[A#] moments just might
[A#/A] find their way into my
[Gm7] dreams to-
[F]-night
But I
[Eb] know that they'll be
[Eb/D] gone when the
[Cm] morning light
[F] sings,
And brings new
[A#] things
[A#/A] for to-
[Gm7]-morrow night you
[F] see
That
[Eb] they'll be gone
[Eb/D] too, too many
[Cm] things I have to
[F] do
VERSE 4:
But if all of these
[A#] dreams might find their
[A#/A] way, into my
[Gm7] day to day
[F] scene
I'd be
[Eb] under the im-
[Eb/D]-pression, I was
[Cm] somewhere in be-
[F]-tween
With only
[A#] two, just me and
[A#/A] you, not so many
[Gm7] things we got to
[F] do
Or
[Eb] places we got to
[Eb/D] be, we'll sit be-
[Cm]-neath the mango
[F] tree now
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 3: Mmm... Mmm... Mmm...
BRIDGE:
[Eb] I believe in
[F] memories, they look so,
[Eb] so pretty when I
[F] sleep
Hey now,
[Eb] and when I
[F] wake up, you look so
[Eb] pretty sleeping next to
[F] me
But there is
[Eb] not enough
[F] time, and there is no
[Eb] song I could
[F] sing
And there is
[Eb] no, combination of
[F] words I could say, but I will
[Eb] still tell you one
[F] thing, we're better together
