Tom: Am

Am   G    F


[Verse]
 Am               G                   F
"It gets better" they keep repeating over and over
Am                         G                   F
Just change your frame of mind, and you'll be fine
Am                       G                   F
"You know it could be worse" says the devil sat on my shoulder
Am                  G               F
If I don't lose my mind I'll be alright


[Pre-Chorus]
       Am                  G
But I wish that you understood
                  F
Some words do no good
          Am                    G
And it's hard when you can't relate
                         F
Cuz you can't feel the weight


[Chorus]
               C
When you say every days a blessing
         G                             F
And you fail to see a reason why I'm stressing out
F
So can I let you know?
               C
You say that everything is temporary
 G                          F
This just feels unnecessary in your eyes
F
And all you wanna know
                 C        G        F
Is why I can't be happier, happier


[Verse]
Am                 G                     F
Theres a wave of guilt and it hits when I'm thinking over
Am              G                 F
All the good I have that feels unearned
Am                  G                   F
It's not that I'm ungrateful or that I want something better
Am            G             F
All I really want is to be heard


[Pre-Chorus]
       Am                  G
And I wish that you understood
                  F
Some words do no good
       Am                  G
And I hate that I'd rather lie
                       F
Than say what's on my mind


[Chorus]
              C
When you say every days a blessing
         G                              F
And you fail to see a reason why I'm stressing out
F
So can I let you know
              C
You say that everything is temporary
 G                          F
This just feels unnecessary in your eyes
F
And all you wanna know
                 C       G
Is why I can't be happier, happier
           C
Be happier
       G        F
Happier, happier
          C
Be happier
       G        F
Happier, happier
      C                               G
Maybe I don't have the answer, but I wish I didn't have to try to
F
Justify the things i can't control
