VERSE:

Bm9Bm9     Dsus2Dsus2
 I want you, thin fingers;
Gsus2Gsus2
 I wanted you, thin fingernails.
Bm9Bm9     Dsus2Dsus2
 And when you bend backwards
Gsus2Gsus2
 I wanted you, I needed you
Bm9Bm9  Dsus2Dsus2   Gsus2Gsus2
Oh-oh to make me better

Bm9Bm9 Dsus2Dsus2 Gsus2Gsus2

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 augmentedA             G+G       D MajorD
 But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
     G+G      D MajorD          A augmentedA     G+G A augmentedA
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
               G+G        D MajorD
And won't it all just come around to make you
    G+G       D MajorD        A augmentedA
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
        G+G
But it'd make you better.
      Bm9Bm9   Dsus2Dsus2   Gsus2Gsus2
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.
        B minorBm    G+G   D MajorD   A augmentedA

Did it make you better?

 And all I wanted was a sliver to call mine.
B minorBm            G+G         D MajorD
 And all I wanted was a shimmer in your shine
      A augmentedA      G+G A augmentedA
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.
