Chords for Lauv "I Like Me Better" Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified

[N] I've definitely always been a bit of a hopeless romantic.
In high school I [Ab]
definitely once wrote a song about a girl who literally I don't think knew I [Bbm] existed.
So I was always kind of like, yeah.
I was like, that dude.
[Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I wrote the song when I moved to LA, but it's originally about when I moved to New York
[G] and I was 18, moved here for school and was kind of [Gb] trying to figure out [G] who I was and
who I wanted to be.
And then I fell in love for the first time.
It was [Ab] about this four year [Gb] relationship that I was in when I went to school at NYU.
[Ab] It's kind of just that feeling of everything else [Bb] is crazy in my life and I don't really
know what the fuck I'm doing, [Bbm] but whatever we have going on is dope.
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ When you [B] haven't been in love before, I think everything [Bb] is such a big deal.
Every little feeling.
There's [A] all these crazy insecurities.
There's the whole honeymoon phase.
_ _ There's all the [Bb] sex.
Everything.
It's all happening when you first move to New York. _
[B] It's crazy.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ It's been so long since I've had that [Ab] experience.
I feel like it's kind of rare where you don't want to go to bed and you're like, nothing.
It's all happening for the first time [G] and then you just go straight into your next day. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] You [A] minimize my insecurities and you bring out the things about me [Gb] that I didn't even
know that I had that are dope.
[Ab] I think that's such a nice feeling to be with somebody when you're trying to figure [G] yourself
out and they bring out all the stuff in you that's like, oh shit.
[Dbm] I didn't think I had any swag, but apparently you think I have swag.
[Bbm] Alright, cool.
That's sick.
[Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [B] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ I [A] do this thing where I'll [B] see somebody and I feel like I fall in love with them, but
it's not even just that I [Bb] fall in love with them, but I [A] imagine, okay, [Db] how [C] would our future look?
I was walking around the LACMA in LA and I was like, what if I met a girl here who became
[Gb] my wife at the art museum?
[B] I have these little mini fantasies [Gb] and then I just move on with my life and it never happens.
_ I don't [B] know what it is, but I got that feeling.
[N] _ _ _ _ [B] Waking up in this bed next to you, sweater [D] on me, I got no [C] ceiling.
I find [Ab] now I wake up every day and I'm [Bbm] on my phone.
Or I'll wake up in [Gb] the middle of the night and I'm on my phone.
[Ab] It's sad.
The first thing I do is _ [A] do that.
It's so nice [G] when you're with somebody and you can [Ab] just _ [G] lay there and watch them wake
up or whatever [B] it is. _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I don't know.
It sounds [Db] really corny, but we know where you want to go in the future. _
Your [C] family and your insecurities and the shit that pisses you off and the shit that
you love and the [B] movies you love and everything.
It's just like when you [Bbm] find somebody where you can literally just unload everything,
you [Ab] guys can talk about whatever and there's no boundaries.
That's such a beautiful and rare thing. _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ I [A] feel like when I was in a long [Db] term relationship, there would be moments where I would be like,
okay, we either are compatible or we're not.
But I think a lot of that's a decision.
I think it's like, do you enjoy spending time together?
[Ab] Do you feel like you can grow together?
Then it's [Bbm] just like, do [Ab] you want to make [G] sacrifices?
_ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
