Intro -x2-: E Bsus4 A Bsus4 Verse 1: E Bsus4 Hey I hear the voice of a preacher from the back room. A Bsus4 Calling my name and I follow just to find you. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 I trace the faith to a broken down television and put on the weather. E Bsus4 And I've trained myself to give up on the past. A Bsus4 Cause I frozen time between hearses and caskets. E Bsus4 Lost control when I panicked at the acid test. A Bsus4 I wanna get better. E Bsus4 A While my friends were getting high and chasing girls down parkway lines I was Bsus4 losing my mind. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 Cause the love, the love, the love, the love, the love that I gave wasted on a nice face. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 In a blaze of fear I put a helmet on a helmet counting seconds through the night and got carried away. -nc- So now I'm standing on the overpass screaming at the cars: Hey, I wanna get better! Chorus: E Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face. Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I wanna get better, better, better, better, I wanna get better. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I didn't know I was broken 'til I wanted to change. Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I wanna get better, better, better, better, I wanna get better. Verse 2: E Bsus4 I go up to my room and there's girls on the ceiling. A Bsus4 Cut out their pictures and I chase that feeling E Bsus4 of an eighteen year old, who didn't know what loss was. A Bsus4 Now I'm a stranger. E Bsus4 And I miss the days of a life still permanent. A Bsus4 E Mourn the years before I got carried away. -nc- So now I'm staring at the interstate, screaming at myself: hey, I wanna get better! Chorus: E Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face. Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I wanna get better, better, better, better, I wanna get better. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I didn't know I was broken 'til I wanted to change. Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I wanna get better, better, better, better, I wanna get better. Bridge: Gb Bsus4 Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi. Gb I'm screaming from my bedroom window. Bsus4 Even if it's gonna kill me. Interlude -x4-: E Bsus4 A Bsus4 Verse 3: E Bsus4 Woke up this morning early before my family. A Bsus4 From this dream where she was trying to show me. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 How a life can move from the darkness, she said to get better. E Bsus4 A Bsus4 So I, put a bullet where I shoulda put a helmet and I, crash my car cause I wanna get carried away. Bsus4 A Bsus4 -nc- That’s why I'm standing on the overpass screaming at myself, hey, I wanna get better! Chorus: E Bsus4 A Bsus4 E I didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face.
