INTRO:
Bm9 Dsus2 Gsus2 (x2)

VERSE:

Bm9         Dsus2
  I want you, thin fingers;
Gsus2
  I wanted you, thin fingernails.
Bm9          Dsus2
  And when you bend backwards
Gsus2
  I wanted you, I needed you
Bm9   Dsus2     Gsus2
Oh-oh to make me better

Bm9 Dsus2 Gsus2

VERSE:
I'll love you in spring time
I lost you when summer came.
And when you pulled backwards
I wanted you, I needed you
Oh-oh, to make me better.
Oh-oh to make me better.

CHORUS:
A                          G             D
  But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
         G            D                    A          G A
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
                             G                D
And won't it all just come around to make you
       G              D               A
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
                G
But it'd make you better.
            Bm9      Dsus2      Gsus2
It'd make you better.

VERSE:
I sung you your twinges
I suffered you your tattletales.
And when you broke sideways
I wanted you, I needed you
Oh-oh, to make me better.
Oh-oh, to make be better.

CHORUS:
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won't it all just come around to make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day that you met her
And it'd make you better.
                Bm       G     D     A
And it'd make you better.
               Bm       G     D     A
Did it make you better?

INSTRUMENTAL:
Bm G D A (x2)

BRIDGE:
Bm                       G                 D    A
  And all I wanted was a sliver to call mine.
Bm                       G                  D
  And all I wanted was a shimmer in your shine
            A           G A
To make me bright

CHORUS:
Cause we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won't it all just come around to make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day that you met her
And it'd make you better.
And it'd make you better.

OUTRO:
