INTRO: G - Am - Em

VERSE:
G
Is this what you meant?
     Am                             Em
Is this what you dreamed of?
G
When you were making your plans
Am                  Em
Shaking the dirt off?
             G
Do you feel like
            Am      Em
You and I belong? (Oh woah oh!)
                          G
Just keep your eyes on the road
        Am                    Em
And nothing can go wrong

CHORUS:
                         D       Em            C
You can do so much better than this
                         D       Em            C
You can do so much better than this

VERSE:
                   G
I've been checking my sums
      Am                        Em
Oh where did the time go?
               G
Holding my photograph
Am              Em
Up to the window
                       G
Through the paper
            Am        Em
And refracted sun (Oh woah oh!)
          G
I can see all the things
Am                 Em
I wish that I'd done

CHORUS:
                                   D   Em            C
You can hang your hopes on the medicine
                             D      Em             C
You can put your faith in the phone in
                D                           Em             C
You can tell yourself you're doing your best
                       D         Em            C
You can do so much better than this

BRIDGE 1:
            C
Get a grip on yourself
            A
Get a grip on yourself
                G                                               Am
Could've been something, but you're too late
               C          C/B      Em
And you weren't invited anyway

CHORUS:
                         D         Em                        C
Cos the photograph showed the wrong man
                          D                Em               C
Cos there is no soap star holding your hand
                              D   Em                C
You don't see yourself in the freeze frame
                             D        Em         C
Must be someone else using your name

BRIDGE 2:
D               Em                C
And everyone will be the same
And everyone will gloat
D               Em                               C
And everywhere you'll see your name
In every shop window

OUTRO CHORUS:
D        Em        C
It's better than this
                          D      Em            C
You can do so much better than this
                          D      Em            C
You can do so much better than this
                          D      Em            C
You can do so much better than this

OUTRO: G - Am - Em x2
