[Verse 1]
Fm                        Eb
1:00am, I’m losin' all my patience
Db                          Eb
2:00am, I swear I've hit my stride
Fm                        Eb
3:00am, I’m wakin' up the neighbors
Db                         Eb
4:00am, the muse in me has died
Fm                Eb           Db
But all I know is how to be perceived
 
(I don’t really love you back)
Eb
(I don’t really love you back, yeah)
Fm               Eb             Db
Frankly, I don’t know what to believe
 
(I don’t really love like that)
Eb
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                     Db     Eb
And I wanna know the future
                     Cm7         Fm
Don’t tell me how it ends, though
                   Db    Eb
If I come off as a loser
                   Cm7
It’s only 'cause I said so
          C7
I’ve been good
 
It’s been good
 
But I know
 
 
[Chorus]
Fm
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
It could be bеtter, better, bеtter
Db
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
(Ooh, ah-ah)
Fm
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
It could be better, better, better
Db
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
 
[Verse 2]
Fm
But it never is, though
          Eb
Man, I’ve only been to San Francisco
               Db
I could win an Emmy
 
I could win a Grammy and an Oscar
Eb
And all I’d have is my ego
           Fm
Livin' the dream
 
Sleepin' through the nightmares
       Eb
In the studio
 
Spendin' all my nights there
             Db
Might as well
                Eb
Man, I might as well
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                     Db    Eb
And I wanna know the future
                           Cm7    Fm
Don’t tell me how it ends, though
                        Db    Eb
If I come off as a loser
                   Cm7
It’s only 'cause I said so
          C7
I’ve been good
 
It’s been good
 
But I know
 
 
[Chorus]
Fm
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
It could be bеtter, better, bеtter
Db
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
(Ahhh! Ah-ah!)
Fm
It could be better, it could be better
Eb
It could be bеtter, better, bеtter
Db
It could be better, it could be better
Eb

Don’t stop Now

Carry on
Fm                   Eb
Heaven is a place we don’t belong
Fm              Eb
So if you don’t obey
