[C] better, you better, [G] you better, [C] you better, you better,
[G]
[C] [F] I [G]
[C] call you on the telephone, [F] my voice too rough [G] on cigarettes,
[C] I sometimes feel I should just go home, [F] but I feel it will a [G] memory to never forget,
[C] I love to hear you say my name, [F] especially [G] when you say yes,
[C] I got your body right now on my mind, [F] but I chuck myself right [G] through the sound of old [Am] T-Rex,
[Gm] through [F] the [C] [Am] sound of [Ab] old T-Rex,
[C]
[G] [C] When I say I love you, you say [F] you better, [A] you better, [G] you better, [C] you better,
When I say I need you, you say [F] you better, [Am] you better, [G] you better, [Dm] you better,
You [G] better fix your life, or I will [Dm] hurt you, hurt [Am] you [G] like a knife,
[C] I want those feeble minded axes overthrown, [G] [C] I'm not into your passport [F] picture, I just [G] like your nose,
[C] You welcome me with open [F] arms and open [G] legs, [C] I know only fools have [F] knees, but this one [G] never fails,
[Am] I don't really mind how much [Gm] you love me, [Am] [F] ooh a [E] little is [C] alright, [Am] when you say come over and [Ab] spend the night,

and [F] chewing up [Dm] all those letters [G] saying you better, [Dm] you better [G] fix your life,
[A] You better love me, all [C] time now, you better show me, I [Am] can't think, I [C] better show me, [G] I can't rely [Am] now,
[C] [Am]
[C] I showed up late one night [F] with a neon light [C] for a visa, but going out and so meager tonight, [F] that ain't letting me [C] in any easier,
I know I've been wearing crazy [F] clothes, and I look pretty [G] crappy [C] sometimes, but my body feels so good, [F] and I still sing the [G] razor line [Am] every time,
[Gm] Damn when it comes [F] to all [C] that living, I know [F] what I'm giving, [Ab] I've got it all down [C] to a T, and it's free,
[G]
[C] When I say I love you, you say you better, you better, you better, you better,
When I say I need you, you say you better, you better, you better,
When I say I love you, you [F] say you better, [Am] you [G] better, you [C] better, you better,
When I say I need you, scream, [F] you better, you [Am] better, you [D] better, you better,

When I say I need you, you [G] say you better
[Bm] You [A] better, you [D] better, you better
When I say I love you, you [G] say you better
[Bm] You [A] better, you [D] better, you better
And when I say I need you, you [G] scream, you better
