Verse:
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
There's no combination of words that I could put on the back of a postcard
C Cmaj7 am D
No song that I could sing but I can try for your heart and
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
Our dreams and they are made out of real things like
C Cmaj7 am D
a shoebox of photographs and sepia-toned loving
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart like
C Cmaj am D
why are we here and where do we go and how come its so hard?
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
Its not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
C Cmaj7 am D
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together
Chorus:
(Cadd5 = 032013)
Cadd5 D
mmmmm it's always better when we're together
Cadd5 D
Yeah we'll look at the stars when we're together
Cadd5 D
Well it's always better when we're together
Cadd5 D
Yeah it's always better when we're together.
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
And all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jack_johnson/better_together_tab_ver_2.html ]
C Cmaj7 am D
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings,
G Gmaj7 em emmin
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you'll see
C Cmaj7 am D
That they'll be gone too too many things I have to do.
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
C Cmaj7 am D
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
G Gmaj7 em emmin7
With only two just me and you now so many things we got to do,
C Cmaj7 am D
or places we got to be we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Chorus:
Yeah it's always better when we're always together
Mmhh we're somewhere in between together
Well it's always better when we're together
Yeah it's always better when we're together
G Gmaj7 em emmin7 C Cmaj7 am D
mmmhhh mmmmhhh...
Bridge:
Cadd5 D Cadd5 D
I believe in memories they look so, so pretty when I sleep, hey now
Cadd5 D Cadd5 D
And when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me but there is
Cadd5 D Cadd5 D
not enough time. There is no, no song I could sing and there is no
Cadd5 D Cadd5 D
combination of words I could say but I will still tell you one thing
we're better together.
