A
Say something
A                   G       D         A
Shout it from the rooftops of your head
A                 
Make it sort of mean something
A               G     D         A
Make me understand or I'll forget
A
The people here on lifes beaches
A                      G      D           A
They wish upon the waves that hide the sand
A
Let them know that life teaches you
A                 G       D  A
To build a castle in your hand

Bridge:
A           G           D         A
Maybe the signs I've seen are wrong
A           G           D         A
Maybe the dreams I've dreamed are gone
A              G           D       A
So bring it on home and it wont be long
(N.C.)         A    F#m
It's Getting Better Man!!
F#m                             A-A-E-E-F#m
And what was that you said to me?
F#m                             A-A-E-E-F#m
Just say the word and I'd be free?
F#m                             Bm
And where the stars are shining bright
D                    A
It's Getting Better Man!
F#m                       A-A-E-E-F#m
And crashing in upon a wave
F#m                             A-A-E-E-F#m
It's calling out beyond the grave
F#m                       Bm
And we're the fire in the sky
D                   A
It's Getting Better Man
Verse 2:
A
Build Something
A               G         D         A
Build a better place and call it home
A
Even if it means nothing
A                 G                D 
You'll never ever feel that you're alone.

Bridge:
A           G           D         A
Maybe the songs that I sing are wrong
A           G           D         A
Maybe the dreams we dream are gone
A              G           D       A
So bring it on home and it won't be long
(N.C.)         A    F#m
It's Getting Better Man!!
