Verse 1:

F#                   F#/F
 There’s no combination of words

       D#m                   C#
I could put on the back of a postcard,

B             B/A#
 No song that I  could sing.

   G#m              C#              
But I could try for your heart and

F#    F#/F                D#m               C#
 Our dreams, and they are made out of real things,

      B            B/A#
Like a   shoebox of photographs

    G#m        C#       
With sepiatone loving.

F#            F#/F
 Love is the answer,

             D#m                       C#
At least for most of the questions in  my heart,

    B            B/A#                    G#m
Like, “Why are we here?” and “Where do we go?”

                   C#
And “How come it’s so hard?”

    F#                 F#/F
And   it’s not always easy,

             D#m               C#
And sometimes life can be de – ceiving.

B                  B/A#
 I’ll tell you one thing,

           G#m                     C#
It’s always better when we’re to – gether.



Chorus:

B                  C#                           
   Mm, it’s always better when we’re together.

B                         C#                         
   Yeah, we’ll look at the stars when we’re together.

B                    C#                           
   Well, it’s always better when we’re together.

B                    C#                           
   Yeah, it’s always better when we’re together.



Interlude:

F#  F#/F   D#m  C#   B  B/A#   G#m  C#  

F#  F#/F   D#m  C#   B  B/A#   G#m  C#



Verse 2:

                  F#
And all of these  moments

           F#/F                   D#m             C#    
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight,

      B                         B/A#
But I know that they’ll be gone

         G#m                  C#
When the morning light sings

              F#        F#/F
Or brings new things.

        D#m                   C#
For tomorrow night you see

     B                    B/A#
That they’ll be gone too.

         G#m               C#
Too many things I have to do.

                    F#                F#/F
But if all of these dreams find their way

        D#m                C#
Into my day-to-day scene,

       B                   B/A#
I’d be under the impress – sion

      G#m                   C#            F#
I was somewhere in between    with only two,

                 F#/F
Just me and you.

            D#m               C#
Not so many things we got to do

   B                B/A#
Or places we got to be.

               G#m              C#
We’ll sit be – neath the mango tree now.



Chorus:

B                    C#                            
   Yeah, it’s always better when we’re together.

B                      C#                     
   Mm, we’re somewhere in between together.

B                    C#                            
   Well, it’s always better when we’re together.

B                    C#                           
   Yeah, it’s always better when we’re together.



Interlude:

F#  F#/F   D#m  C#   B  B/A#   G#m  C#   

F#  F#/F   D#m  C#   B  B/A#   G#m  C#  



Bridge:

G#m                     C#
   I believe in memo – ries;

              G#m                         C#
They look so,    so pretty when I sleep.

              G#m                 C#   
Hey now, and,    and when I wake   up,

            G#m
You look so pretty

                 C#
Sleeping next to me.

             B                       C#
But there is       not enough time,

                 B                          C#
And there is no,      no song I could sing.

                B                         C#
And there is no      combination of words   I could say,

           B                              
But I will still      tell you one thing:

C#                        
  We’re better together.
