You Could Have It So Much Better chords by Franz Ferdinand

Chords with lyrics

I worked this out from the bass line so I think its right

    E MajorE
The last message you sent
C majorC
said I looked really down
F#F#
that I oughta come over
A augmentedA
and talk about it
E MajorE          C majorC
well I wasn't down
F#F#                 A augmentedA
I just wasn't smiling at you
E MajorE                C majorC
as I look at us now it seems
F#F#
that you're slapping my back
A augmentedA
as if it's alright
E MajorE
but its not.
C majorC
I'm trying to get up
F#F#                  A augmentedA
but you're pushing me down

jst reapet E MajorE C majorC F#F# A augmentedA

so I'll get up on my own
Now there's some grinning goon
on my TV screen
telling us all that
it's alright because
she wears this and
he said that and
if you get some of these
it'll all be alright
well I refuse
to be a cynical goon
passing the masses
an easy answer
because it won't be alright
oh no it won't be alright
it won't be alright
unless you get up
come on and get up

Well I'm just a voice in your earpieces
telling you no
it's not alright
you know you could have it so much better
you could have it so much better
if you tried.
