VERSE:
Bb
 Is this what you meant?
   Cm                   Gm
Is this what you dreamed of?
Bb
When you were making your plans
Cm               Gm
Shaking the dirt off?
       Bb
Do you feel like
        Cm    Gm
You and I belong? (Oh woah oh!)
                Bb
Just keep your eyes on the road
    Cm             Gm
And nothing can go wrong

VERSE:
            Bb
I've been checking my sums
   Cm                  Gm
Oh where did the time go?
         Bb
Holding my photograph
Cm           Gm
Up to the window
             Bb
Through the paper
       Cm        Gm
And refracted sun (Oh woah oh!)
      Bb
I can see all the things
Cm              Gm
I wish that I'd done

CHORUS:
                   F    Gm         Eb
You can hang your hopes on the medicine
                  F    Gm            Eb
You can put your faith in the phone in
         F                    Gm         Eb
You can tell yourself you're doing your best
              F     Gm         Eb
You can do so much better than this

BRIDGE 1:
      Eb
Get a grip on yourself
      C
Get a grip on yourself
         Bb                             Cm
Could've been something, but you're too late
        Eb              Gm
And you weren't invited anyway

CHORUS:
              F      Gm              Eb
Cos the photograph showed the wrong man
                F          Gm           Eb
Cos there is no soap star holding your hand
                  F    Gm            Eb
You don't see yourself in the freeze frame
                F     Gm        Eb
Must be someone else using your name

BRIDGE 2:
F            Gm             Eb
   And everyone will be the same
And everyone will gloat
F            Gm                    Eb
   And everywhere you'll see your name
In every shop window

OUTRO CHORUS:
F       Gm          Eb
   It's better than this
              F     Gm         Eb
You can do so much better than this
              F     Gm         Eb
You can do so much better than this
              F     Gm         Eb
You can do so much better than this
