Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

Is this what you meant?

Is this what you dreamed of?

When you were making your plans

Shaking the dirt off?

Do you feel like

You and I belong? (Oh woah oh!)

Just keep your eyes on the road

And nothing can go wrong

Chorus

You can do so much better than this

You can do so much better than this

Verse

I've been checking my sums

Oh where did the time go?

Holding my photograph

Up to the window

Through the paper

And refracted sun (Oh woah oh!)

I can see all the things

I wish that I'd done

Chorus

You can hang your hopes on the medicine

You can put your faith in the phone in

You can tell yourself you're doing your best

You can do so much better than this

Bridge 1

Get a grip on yourself

Get a grip on yourself

Could've been something, but you're too late

And you weren't invited anyway

Chorus

Cos the photograph showed the wrong man

Cos there is no soap star holding your hand

You don't see yourself in the freeze frame

Must be someone else using your name

Bridge 2

And everyone will be the same

And everyone will gloat

And everywhere you'll see your name

In every shop window

Outro chorus

It's better than this

You can do so much better than this

You can do so much better than this

You can do so much better than this
