[Verse]
Em
All you want is what you can’t have and if you
G
just look around man you see you got magic so just
Em
sit back relax enjoy it while you still have it
G
Don’t look back on life man and only see tragic
[Chorus]
Em
Because you could be better than that don't let it get the better of
G
You what could be better than now
D C C B A
Life’s not about what’s better than
Em
You can be better than that don't let it get the better of
G
You what could be better than now
D C C B A
Life’s not about what’s better
[Verse]
All the time while you’re looking away
There are things you can do man
There’s things you can say
To the ones you’re with
With whom you’re spending your day
Get your gaze off tomorrow
And let come what may
[Chorus]
Em
Because you could be better than that don't let it get the better of
G
You what could be better than now
D C C B A
Life’s not about what’s better than
Em
You can be better than that don't let it get the better of
G
You what could be better than now
D C C B A
Life’s not about what’s better
[Bridge]
C Am G
All I know is sometimes things can be hard
But you should know by now
They come and they go
So why, oh why
Do I look to the other side
'Cos I know the grass is greener but
Just as hard to mow
Life’s not about what’s better than.
All you want is
What you can’t have
And if you just look around man
You see you got magic
So just sit back relax
Enjoy it while you still have it
Don’t look back on life man and only see tragic
[Chorus]
Em
Because you could be better than that don't let it get the better of
G
You what could be better than now
D C C B A
Life’s not about what’s better than
Em
You can be better than that don't let it get the better of
G
You what could be better than now
D C C B A
Life’s not about what’s better
