Matt Nathanson - I hope that something better comes along

You ^Fcan't live with 'em, you ^Bbcan't live with^Cout 'em.^F There's somethin' irresistable^Bb-ish abou^Ct 'em. ^Dm We grin and bear it 'cause the ^Bbnights are long. I ^Fhope that somethin' ^Cbetter comes al^Fong.

It's ^Fno good complainin' and^Bb pointless to ^Choller. ^F If she's a beauty she'll get ^Bbunderneath your ^Ccollar.^Dm She made a monkey out of ^Bbold King Kong, I ^Fhope that somethin' ^Cbetter comes al^Fong.

Ah, but ^Emwhat could be ^Abetter than a ^Dsaucy Irish ^Bsetter When ^Empuppy love^A comes on^D strong? Or a ^G#collie that's classy, a^C# laddie needs a lassie, A ^F#lover and wife gives you a ^Fnew leash on ^Glife.

^FI don't mean to scare ya, my ^Bbfriend, but I ^Cbetcha ^F Come "Father's Day", t^Bbhe litter bug^C is gon^Dmna getcha The urge is righteous, but the ^Bbface is wrong. I ^Fhope that somethin' ^Cbetter comes a^Flong.

Still, it's ^Emfun when they're ^Afetching, And ag^Dree to see an ^Betching That you ^Emkeep at your^A lily p^Dad. There ^G#is no solution, it's ^C#part of evolution, The pitter ^F#patter of soles, The little ^Ffeet of tad^Gpoles.

There's ^Fno limitation to^Bb mixin' and m^Catchin' ^F Some get an itchin' for a ^Bbcritter they've been ^Cscratchin'.^Dm A skunk was badgered the re^Bbsults were strong. ^FI hope that somethin' ^Cbetter, ^FI hope that somethin' ^Cbetter, ^FI hope that somethin' ^Cbetter comes al^Bbong^A. ^{G F}
