[Verse 1]
E B
Hey I hear the voice of a preacher from the back room.
A B
Calling my name and I follow just to find you.
E B A B
I trace the faith to a broken-down television and put on the weather.
E B
And I've trained myself to give up on the past.
A B
Cause I frozen time between hearses and caskets.
E B
Lost control when I panicked at the acid test.
A B
I wanna get better.
E B
While my friends were getting high
A
and chasing girls down parkway lines
B
I was losing my mind
E B
Cause the love, the love, the love, the love, the love
A B
that I gave wasted on a nice face.
E B A
In a blaze of fear I put a helmet on a helmet
B
counting seconds through the night and got carried away.
So now I'm standing on the overpass screaming at the cars:
Hey, I wanna get better!
[Chorus]
E B A B E
I didn't know I was lonely 'til I saw your face.
B A B E
I wanna get better, better, better, better, I wanna get better.
E B A B E
I didn't know I was broken 'til I wanted to change.
B A B E
I wanna get better, better, better, better, I wanna get better.
[Verse 2]
E B
I go up to my room and there's girls on the ceiling.
A B
Cut out their pictures and I chase that feeling
E B
of an eighteen year old, who didn't know what loss was.
A B
Now I'm a stranger
E B
And I miss the days of a life still permanent.
A B E
Mourn the years before I got carried away.
So now I'm staring at the interstate, screaming at myself
hey, I wanna get better!
[Ulangi Chorus]
[Bridge]
F# B
Cause I'm sleeping in the back of a taxi
F#
I'm screaming from my bedroom window
B
Even if it's gonna kill me
[Verse 3]
E B
Woke up this morning early before my family.
A B
From this dream where she was trying to show me.
E B A B
How a life can move from the darkness, she said to get better.
E B
So I, put a bullet where I shoulda put a helmet
A B
and I crash my car cause I wanna get carried away.
B A
That’s why I'm standing on the overpass screaming at myself,
B
hey, I wanna get better!
[Ulangi Chorus]
