Joel Faviere - It Gets Better Chords

               Em
They got your walls as tall as the ceiling
         Am
Or your heart's curled up in a ball on the floor
   C
It's never been this hard
   F                    Em
To push on through the dark
G                            C
I know it's tough to make a smile creep out of the broken doubt
         Em
And the rest of you is torn
      C
Just wait they got more words in store
             Am
Like you're stupid
                G
I think they're stupid
                Am                    C
You wonder why they do this

There ain't a reason



                    Am
They think they're tough right?
                            G
Taking your time to make a rough night
                             Em
For someone else it's not a dumb fight
                      F
Cause all we have is who we are
C
Who we are
Em
Not everybody has a heart as thick as ours
Am
Keep aiming for the stars
         
Don't forget who you are
                G
Who you are



F
Take it for granted
           Em
The love they've been handed
                Am
Yeah we're all misdirected      
C
We try to learn the lessons
                 G
But when you're alone
             D
Your heart turns to stone
Em
No heart or home

Stolen conclusion
Am
Your minds all turned over

From words of illusion
Em
But you're fine
Am
You're fine

You're fine
F
You're fine

You're fine
G -
Lay your head down
-
It'll be alright
_
Take the time to realize, they're all just lies.



           Em
Cause not everybody has a heart as thick as ours
      Am
Keep aiming for the stars
     Em
Not everybody has a heart as thick as ours
       Am
Keep aiming for the stars
 

      
      G  Am  Em                           F
It's so hard to let a smile creep out of all the broken doubt
C                   Em          Am -                                   Em -
When you're gone, alone, cause they take you down, they skin ya to the bone.
        C
Do you know who you are?
         G
Cause I know who you are
           F
You're a pinch of perfect

a dash of worth it
       Em
Don't take your life
           Am
Just stay tongue tied
        G
I know it's hard
         C
Do they know it's this hard
           Em
To make a smile creep out of a pile of broken doubt

      G                 -                            F
When all of its gone, they take you down, they take your stars.
                    Em
But I need you to shine

For me tonight
               C
I need you to shine, I need you to shine
           G            -
Cause it doesn't look like
-
I said it doesn't look like
-
It gets better
-
I said it doesn't look like
-
It gets better
-
With all of this heavy weather
          G
Well it doesn't look like

It gets better
    F
But I swear that it does.

           Am
But I know you'll think twice cause of the heavy, heavy weather
         Em -
And you don't know whether to stay.



             Am
Because not everybody has a heart as thick as yours
                     Em
Keep aiming for the stars, don't forget who you are
        C -
Cause you've gotten this far, don't let them take it all.
