Getting There chords by Ramona

Verse 1:

F                      C
I wanted to be able to say, “I’m doing so much better than the

Bb
last time that you saw me.

F                C
I go to sleep by ten, sometimes later on the

Bb
weekend.

D                          C
And I feel so connected to everything and everyone. It’s

Bb
exhilarating.”

D                   C
But that would be a lie. I’m doing a little

Bb
better. But I’m just not that

F
guy.

Verse 2:

F                C
It’s tough being around you because you knew me

Bb
back when.

F               C
Back when I was funnier and brighter, not just

Bb
bummed out and tired.

Bridge:

D                      C       Bb
These expectations are killing me.

D                      C       Bb
Like I’m supposed to be someone I wish I could be.

Chorus:

F
I’m not quite better but I’m getting there. (x3)
I’m not quite better yet.

Verse 3:

F                C    D                  Bb
And in a quiet moment, I find I kind of like myself.

F                 C              D                    Bb
And some days the anger returns and I have to find a reason to smile.

F                    C        D       Bb
Because you’re only as stable as your last breakdown.

F                      C      D                          Bb
And I don’t think I’m able to understand the world right now.

Chorus:

D, C#, C
I’m not quite better but I’m getting there. (x7)
I’m not quite better yet.


D        C        F        Bb
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh

Outro:

F
I’m not quite better but I’m getting there. (x4)
