James Bay - Better

[Intro]
E

[Verse 1]
E C#m7
I grew up learning from the best of me
E A
And I’m still not sure just who I am supposed to be
Am
So hold me again
E C#m
Before I fall
D
Hold tight
Bsus4
Hold tight

[Verse 3]
E C#m7
I hung back in the shadows in periphery
E A
And you took my hand to through the bright lights when they blinded me
Am
You kissed me again
E C#m
You pulled me in close
D
You smiled
B
So I smiled

[Chorus]
E
‘Cause everything’s better
C#m7
As soon as you’re next to me
D F#m
I know I’ll fall apart
B
But you’ll fix me with your heart
E
Everything’s better
C#m
You there in the fight with me
D
And when I fail to start
B
You’ll fix me with your heart

[Verse 4]
E C#m
I grew up tryna heal, lightspeed
E A
But I lost my nerve when the gig kids kicked it out of me
Am
You save me the sin
E C#m
Of getting lost in
D
My mind
B
My mind

[Chorus]
E
‘Cause everything’s better
C#m7
As soon as you’re next to me
D F#m
I know I’ll fall apart
B
But you’ll fix me with your heart
E
Everything’s better
C#m
You there in the fight with me
D
And when I fail to start
B
You’ll fix me with your heart

[Post-Chorus]
E
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
C#m
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
B
Ooh, ooh

[Bridge]
A
You feel this in your feet
B
We were dancing in the street
C#m B D
And you looked the deepest darkness in the air
A
We missed the last bus home
B
Found a park bench for a throne
E B C#m
And the stars stayed out tonight
A B
And everything’s better, everything’s better

[Chorus]
E
Yeah, everything’s better
C#m
As soon as you’re next to me
D
I know I’ll fall apart
B
But you’ll fix me with your heart
E
Everything’s better
C#m
You there in the fight with me
D F#m
And when I fail to start
B
You’ll fix me with your heart

[Outro]
E
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
C#m7 D
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
F#m B
I’m better with you
E
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
C#m7 D
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
B E
I’m better with you
