Ian McConnell - Better Than That

Capo: 6th fret

[Verse]

C Em F Csus4
Two months I told her that I loved her before she said it back
C Em F Csus4
I didn’t mind, I just wanted her to know where I was at
C Em F Csus4
‘Cause she made me feel like I was loved even before there were words
C Em F Csus4
And if we were gonna last forever who cares who said it first?

C Em7
She took me to her hometown, Upper West Manhattan
F Csus4
Opened up her heart and told me I could have it
Am G
Bеing with her felt like anything could happеn
F Csus4
Anything could happen

[Chorus]
C Em
What if it never gets better than that?
F Csus4
What if the best I’ll ever have
C Em
Is already part of my past
F Csus4
And I’m wasting my time, trying to find
G C Em
Somebody to love like I had
F Csus4
When there was no time to look back
Dm Em C Csus4
What if it never gets better, better, better than that?

[Verse]
C Em F Csus4
She used to jump up on my back when she’d had too much to drink
C Em F Csus4
Pull me down to the ground and kiss my cheek until it turned pink
C Em F Csus4
Lie in the grass and tell me that I was all that she’d ever need
C Em F Csus4
And at the time, I know it was something that she believed

[Chorus]
C Em
What if it never gets better than that?
F Csus4
What if the best I’ll ever have
C Em
Is already part of my past
F Csus4
And I’m wasting my time, trying to find
G C Em
Somebody to love like I had
F Csus4
When there was no time to look back
Dm Em C Csus4
What if it never gets better, better, better than that?

[Bridge]
G Am
And the love of my life was over by 22
F C
Nothing new ever lives up to the way it felt
G Am
To be held in her arms and her heart
F
Is that all that I get?

[Chorus]
C Em
What if it never gets better than that?
F Csus4
What if the best I’ll ever have
C Em
Is already part of my past
F Csus4
And I’m wasting my time, trying to find
G C Em
Somebody to love like I had
F Csus4
When there was no time to look back
Dm Em C Csus4
What if it never gets better, better, better than that?
