D Dmaj7 Bm A
There's no combination of words that I could put on the back of a postcard
G D/F# Em A*
No song that I could sing but I can try for your heart and
D Dmaj7 Bm A
Our dreams and they are made out of real things like
G D/F# Em A*
a shoebox of photographs and sepia-toned lovin
D Dmaj7 Bm A
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart like
G D/F# Em A*
why are we here and where do we go and how come its so hard?
D Dmaj7 Bm A
Its not always easy and sometimes life can be decieving
G D/F# Em A* Ab
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together
G* A* Ab G*
mmmmm its always better when we're together
A* Ab G*
Yeah well look at them stars when we're together
A* Ab G*
Well it's always better when we're together
A*
Yeah its always better when we're together.
: and all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
but I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings or brings new things
for tomorrow night you'll see that they'll be gone too too many things I have to do.
but if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere inbetween with only 2 just me and you
now so many things we got to do, or places we got to be we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Yeah its always better when we're always together
mmmm we're somewhere in between together
well its always better when we're together
Yeah it's always better when we're together :
mmmm mmm mmmm
G* A* G* A*
I believe in memories they look so, so pretty when I sleep, hey now and
G* A* G* A*
and when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me but there is
G* A* G* A*
not enough time. there is no, no song I could sing and there is no
G* A* G* A*
combination of words I could say but I will still tell you one thing we're better together

C#m7
I heard this old story before where the
Fm7
people keep killing for the metaphores
B7 E
don't leave much up to the imagination so I
C#m7
wanna give this imagery back but I
Fm7
know it just ain't so easy like that so
B7 E
I turn the page I read the story again and again and again.
:Bridge:
A7
sure seems the same
Fm7
with a different name
B7
we're breaking and rebuilding and we're growing always gussing never
:Chorus:
C#m7 Fm7
Know - ing

we're shocking but we're nothing, we're just

B7 E
amusing and confusing
C#m7 Fm7
try - ing
B7 E
but where is this all leading, we'll never know
:solo:
:Verse:
It all happened so much
faster than you could say disaster
wanna take a time lapse and take a look at back.
We found the last one, maybe thats just the answer that we're after
but after all
we're just a bubble in a boiling pot
just one breath in a chain of thought
moments just combusting
feel certain but we'll never never know
:bridge:
sure seems the same
give it a different name
we're begging and we're needing and we're trying and we're breathing never
:Chorus:
Knowing
we're shocking but we're nothing, we're just
moments
we're clever but we're clueless we're just
human
amusing and confusing
helping
building and we're growing, we'll never know
never know
never know
never know
:verse:
knock knock on the door to door
tell you that the metaphore is better than yours
and you can either sink or swim
things are looking pretty grim
if you don't belive in they're spoon feeding
It's got no feeling
so i read it again and again and again
:Bride:
sure seems the same
so many different names
are hearts are strong our heads are weak we'll always be competing never
Knowing
we're shocking but we're nothing, we're just
moments
we're clever but we're clueless we're just
human
amusing and confusing but the
truth is
All we got is questions we'll never know
never know
never know
never know

Lyrics
Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing
You believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
The Lord knows that this world is cruel
I ain't the Lord, I'm just a fool
and in love with somebody don't make them love you
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool
I sang your songs, I danced your dance
I gave your friends all a chance
Putting up with them wasn't worth ever having you
Maybe you've been through this before
But it's my first time so please ignore
These next few lines because they're directed at you
I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool
I keep playing your part
But it's not my scene
Want this part to twist
I've had enough mystery
Keep building it up
Then shooting me down
But I'm already down
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Just wait a minute
Just sitting, waiting
Well if I was in your position
I'd put down all my amuntintion
I'd wonder why it had taken me so long
But the lord knows that I'm not you
and if I was I wouldn't be so cruel
cause waitin' on love ain't so easy to do
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you
Must I always be playing, playing your fool

But in the true sense of the word
B C#m
Are we using what we've learned?
B C#m
In the true sense of the word
B C#m
Are we losing what we were?
F#m
Its such a tired game
G#m
Will it ever stop?
F#m
Is not for me to say
G#m
And is it in our blood?
F#m
Or is it just our fate?
G#m
And how will this all play out
F#m
Upside out of my mouth
G#m
And who we gonna blame?
On and on
C#m B A G#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame
C#m B A G#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame
C#m B A G#m F#m G#m
Its such a crying crying crying shame shame shame

Do you remember when we first met
I sure do
It was some time
In early September
Though you were lazy about it
You made me wait around
I was so crazy about you
I didn't mind
So I was late for class
I looked my bike to yours
It wasn't hard to find
Your painted flowers oh
Guess that I was afraid
That if you rode away
You might not roll back
My direction real soon
Chorus
A
Well I was crazy about you then
And now the craziest thing of all
Bm D*
Over 10 years have gone by
F#Gbm
And your still mine
Locked in time
Lets rewind
A,G,Fm,A*
Verse
Do you remember
When we first moved in together
The piano took up the living room
You'd play me boogie woogie
I played you love songs
You'd say we're playing house
Now you still say we are
We build our get away
Up in a tree we found
We felt so far away
Though we were still in town
I remember watching
That old tree burn down
I took a picture that
I don't like to look at
Chorus
A
Well all these times
They come and go
Along don't seem so long
Bm D*
Over 10 years have gone by
F#Gbm
We cant rewind
We're looked in time
But your still mine
A,G,Fm,A* (pick A string on each chord)
(start of the verse tab)
Do you remember

14. Constellations
Capo 1st Fret
Intro: G, C
Verse:
G
The light was leaving in the west it was blue
C
The children's laughter sang
G
And skipping just like the stones they threw
C
Their voices echoed across the way
D7
It's getting late....
Chorus:
G F C
And it was just another night
D7 G
With a sunset and a moonrise
F C D7 G
Not too far behind to give us just enough light
F C
To lay down underneath the stars
D7 G
We listened to papa's translations
F C
Of the stories across the skies
D7 G
We drew our own constellations
Hope You Enjoy, Jack is de man
