[Intro]
F Am Dm C
Bb Am7 Gm C

[Verse]
F             Am             Dm                 C
  There is no combination of words that I could put on a postcard, and
         Bb           Am7                 Gm                  C
There is no song that I could sing, I can try because this is your heart,

              F   Am                   Dm               C
And these are our dreams, and they are made out of real things
       Bb          Am7               Gm          C
Like a shoe box of photographs, with sepia-toned lovin'

F             Am                  Dm                       C
  Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart, like
Bb           Am7               Gm                    C
  Why are we here? Where do we go? And how come it's so hard?

F                 Am                   Dm            C
  It's not always easy, and sometime's life can be deceiving
Bb                  Am7                 Gm                  C
  I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together

[Chorus]
Bb              C
  Yeah, so much better when we're together
Bb                   C
  Well, look at them stars when we're together
Bb              C
  Yeah, so much better when we're together
Bb              C
  Yeah, so much better when we're together

[Interlude]
F Am Dm C
Bb Am7 Gm C

[Verse]
                 F             Am                          Dm              C
And all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight,
      Bb                   Am7         Gm            C
But I know that they’ll be gone if the morning light sings

              F      Am      Dm                  C
And brings new things, for tomorrow night you'll see
     Bb               Am7           Gm                C
That they’ll be gone, too, too many things I've gotta do

                    F                       Am          Dm         C
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day-to-day scene
       Bb          Am7            Gm             C
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between

          F                Am               Dm               C
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
   Bb               Am7             Gm              C
Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree, now

[Chorus]
Bb              C
  Yeah, so much better when we're together
Bb                C
  Yeah, somewhere in between together
Bb              C
  Yeah, so much better when we're together
Bb              C
  Yeah, so much better when we're together

[Interlude]
F Am Dm C
Bb Am7 Gm C

[Bridge]
Gm               C
  I believe in memories they look so
Gm                 C
  So pretty when I sleep hey now and
Gm       C
  When I wake up
            Gm                      C
You look so pretty sleeping next to me, but there is
Bb                   C
  There's not enough time, there is no
Bb                C
  No song I could sing, and there is no
Gm               C
  Combination of words I could say
           Gm                 C
But I will still tell you one thing...we're better together

[Outro]

F Am Dm C Bb Am7         Gm                  C       F
                 So much better when we're together
