G
You can bring joy
I never had
I’m gonna be right near now
Long as it lasts and that’why

Chorus:
C           F
Things get better baby
When I’m with you, yeah
Things get better baby
When I’m with you, yeah

I can be lonely
You can be found
I’m not lonely baby, but
You’re always around and that’s why

Chorus

Never in doubt or without you
I know that you’re mine
I can’t lose this feeling
You stay on my mind and that’s why

Chorus - x2
