Intro:
Bm9 D6/9 G6/9 E4 x2

Verse 1:
Bm9       D6/9
I want you, thin fingers
G6/9        E4
I wanted you, thin fingernails
Bm9       D6/9
And when you bend backwards
G6/9        E4
I wanted you, I needed you
Bm9   D6/9       G6/9    E4
Oh-oh, to make me better
Bm9   D6/9       G6/9   E4

Verse 2:
Bm9        D6/9
I'll love you in springtime
G6/9       E4
I lost you when summer came
Bm9         D6/9
And when you pulled backwards
G6/9        E4
I wanted to, I needed to
Bm9   D6/9        G6/9    E4
Oh-oh, to make me better
Bm9   D6/9        G6/9    E4  GGAA
Oh-oh, to make me better


Chorus:
A                       G       D
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
         G           D                     A         G
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
A                           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         D6/9  G6/9  E4
It'd make you better


Verse 3:
Bm9       D6/7
I sung you your twinges
G6/9          E4
I suffered you your tattletales
Bm9         D6/7
And when you broke sideways
G6/7         E4
I wanted you, I needed you
Bm9   D6/7        G6/7    E4
Oh-oh, to make me better
Bm9   D6/7        G6/7    E4   GGAA
Oh-oh, to make me better


Chorus:
A                       G       D
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
         G           D                     A         G
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
A                           G               D
Won't it all just come around and make you
       G             D                     A
Let it all unbreak you to the day that you met her
                  G
But it'd make you better
              Bm   G    D D4
Did it make you better?
A       Bm   G    D   A
Make you better, oh


Bridge:
Bm                     G                  D D4  A
And all I wanted was a sliver to call mine
Bm                     G                   D D4 A
And all I wanted was a shimmer in your shine
                   G
To make me bright


Chorus:
A                         G       D
Cause we're not so starry-eyed anymore
         G           D                     A         G
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
A                           G               D
Won't it all just come around and make you
       G             D                A
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
                  G
But it'd make you better
          Bm9               D6/9   G6/9   E4
It'd make you better
Bm9   D6/7  G6/7  E4 x2
