[E] [A] [E]
[Bm] [E]
Hey, I hear the voice of a preacher [B] from the [Am] back room
Calling my [E] name and I follow just to find you
I trace the faith to a broken [B] down [A] television
And put [B] on the weather
[E] And I've trained myself to give up [B] all of the [A] past
Cause I froze in [B] time between hearses and [E] caskets
Lost control when I panicked, [B] deadly as [A] a test
I wanna [B] get better
[E] While my friends were getting [B] high
And chasing girls [A] down parkway lines
[B] I was losing my mind [E] because
The love, the love, the love, the love, the love [A] that I gave
[B] Wasted on a nice [E] vase
In a blaze of fear I put a helmet [A] on a helmet
Counting seconds [E] through the night and got carried away
So now I'm standing on the [A] overpass screaming at the car [E] say
I wanna get better
Until [A] [B] I saw your [E] face
I wanna get better
[A] Better, [E] better, better
I wanna get better
I was [A] broken till [E] I won't need to change
I wanna get better
[A] Better, [E] better, better
I wanna get better
I go up to my man, this girl's on the [A] ceiling
Cut out from pictures [E] and I've exchanged
The feeling of an 18 year old
Who didn't know I lost [A] one
And now [B] I'm a stranger
[E]
And I miss the days of a life still [A] permanent
More than the [E] years before I got carried away
So now I'm staring at the [A] interstate screaming at myself [E] say
I wanna get better
[A] Until [B] I [E] saw your face
I wanna get better
[A] Better, better, [E] better
I wanna get better
I was [A] broken till [E] I won't need to change
I wanna get better
[A] Better, [B] better, better
[F#] Better
So I'm sleeping [B] in the back of a taxi
Screaming from my bedroom [F#] window
Even if it's gonna [B] kill me
[E]
Woke [B] [A] [B]
[E] [B] [A] [B] [E]
up this morning early before my [A] family
From the stream [B] where she was trying to show [E] me
How a life [Bm] can move from the darkness
[A] She said to [B] get better
[E] So I put a bullet [B] where I should've put a helmet
[A] And I crashed my car [B] cause I wanna get carried [E] away
That's why I'm standing on the overpass screaming at myself hey
I wanna get better
I [A] [B]
[E] wanna get better
[A] Better, better, [E] better
I wanna get better
[B] I [A] was broken till [B] I saw your [E] face
I wanna get better
[B] [A] Better, better, [E] better
I wanna get better
I was [A] broken till [B] I won't need to [E] change
I wanna get better
[A] Better, better, [E] better
I wanna get better
[D#] [F]
[E]
Cool, see you guys later Bye
