[Verse]
C C/B
There's no combination of words
Am G
I could put on the back of a postcard
F C/E
No song that I could sing
Dm G
But I can try for your heart,
C C/B Am G
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
F C/E
Like a shoe box of photographs
Dm G
With sepia-toned loving
C C/B
Love is the answer
Am G
At least for most of the questions in my heart like
F C/E Dm
Why are we here? And where do we go?
G
And how come it's so hard?
C C/B
It's not always easy and
Am G
Sometimes life can be deceiving
F C/E Am G
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together
[Chorus]
F G
Mmmm, it's always better when we're together
F G
Yeah, we'll look at the stars and we're together
F G
Well, it's always better when we're together
F G
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
[Interlude]
C C/B Am G F C/E Dm G
C C/B Am G F C/E Dm G
[Verse]
C
And all of these moments
C/B Am G
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight,
F C/E
But I know that they’ll be gone
Dm G
When the morning light sings
C C/B
And brings new things
Am G
For tomorrow night you see
F C/E
That they’ll be gone too,
Dm G
Too many things I have to do
C C/B
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Am G
Into my day to day scene
F C/E
I'd be under the impression
Dm G
I was somewhere in between
C
With only two,
C/B
Just me and you,
Am G
Not so many things we got to do
F C/E
Or places we got to be
Dm G
We'll sit beneath the mango tree, now
[Chorus]
F G
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
F G
Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together
F G
Well, it's always better when we're together
F G
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
[Interlude]
C C/B Am G
Mmm mmm mm mm mmm mm mm mmm
F C/B Dm G
Mm mm mm mm mmm mmmm mm mmm

[Bridge]
Dm G
I believe in memories they look so
Dm G
So pretty when I sleep hey now and
Dm G
When I wake up you look so
Dm G
Pretty sleeping next to me but there is
F G
Not enough time there is no
F G
No song I could sing and there is no
Dm/F G
Combination of words I could say
Dm/F G
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together
