Jack Johnson, Better Together (2005)
Key: :[A] (w: Jack Johnson)
INTRO: [*R1]
VERSE 1:
[A] There's no combi-
[A/G#]-nation or words I could
[F#m7] put on the back of a
[E] postcard
[D] No
[D/C#] song that I could
[Bm] sing but try for
[E] your heart
[A] Our
[A/G#] dreams, and they are
[F#m7] made out of real
[E] things
Like a,
[D] shoebox of
[D/C#] photographs with
[Bm] sepiatone
[E] loving
VERSE 2:
[A] Love is the
[A/G#] answer, at least for
[F#m7] most of the questions in
[E] my heart
[D] Like why are we
[D/C#] here? and where do we
[Bm] go? And how come it's
[E] so hard?
[A] It's not always
[A/G#] easy and sometimes
[F#m7] life can be de-
[E]-ceiving
[D] I'll tell you one
[D/C#] thing its always
[Bm] better when we're to-
[E]-gether
CHORUS:
[E]^
[D] Mmm, It's always
[D]^
[E] better when we're together
[E]^
[D] Yeah, Look at the
[D]^
[E] stars when we're together
[E]^
[D] Well, It's always
[D]^
[E] better when we're together
[E]^
[D] Yeah, It's always
[D]^
[E] better when we're together
BREAK:
[A] [A/G#] [F#m7] [E] //
[D] [D/C#] [Bm] [E]
[A] [A/G#] [F#m7] [E] //
[D] [D/C#] [Bm] [E]
VERSE 3:
And all of these
[A] moments just might
[A/G#] find their way into my
[F#m7] dreams to-
[E]-night
But I
[D] know that they'll be
[D/C#] gone when the
[Bm] morning light
[E] sings,
And brings new
[A] things
[A/G#] for to-
[F#m7]-morrow night you
[E] see
That
[D] they'll be gone
[D/C#] too, too many
[Bm] things I have to
[E] do
VERSE 4:
But if all of these
[A] dreams might find their
[A/G#] way, into my
[F#m7] day to day
[E] scene
I'd be
[D] under the im-
[D/C#]-pression, I was
[Bm] somewhere in be-
[E]-tween
With only
[A] two, just me and
[A/G#] you, not so many
[F#m7] things we got to
[E] do
Or
[D] places we got to
[D/C#] be, we'll sit be-
[Bm]-neath the mango
[E] tree now
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 3: Mmm... Mmm... Mmm...
BRIDGE:
[D] I believe in
[E] memories, they look so,
[D] so pretty when I
[E] sleep
Hey now,
[D] and when I
[E] wake up, you look so
[D] pretty sleeping next to
[E] me
But there is
[D] not enough
[E] time, and there is no
[D] song I could
[E] sing
And there is
[D] no, combination of
[E] words I could say, but I will
[D] still tell you one
[E] thing, we're better together
