DOnce I believed that when love Acame to me
DIt would come with rockets, bells and Apoetry
BmBut with me and you
G                           A     (strum Open middle 4 strings)
it just started quietly and grew
And Dbelieve it or Gnot
Now there's Dsomething groovy and Ggood
Bout whatever we Dgot
----(silent)---- G
And it's getting better
AGrowing Dstronger
Dwarm and Gwilder
Getting Dbetter GeveryAday, Dbetter GeveryAday
DI don't feel all turned on and Astarry eyed
DI just feel a sweet contentment Adeep inside
BmHolding you at night
G                  A                  (Open middle 4 strings)
just seems kind of natural and right
And it's Dnot hard to Gsee
That it Disn't half of what Git's going to turn out to Dbe
----(silent)---- G
Coz it's getting better
AGrowing Dstronger

Getting Dbetter GeveryAday, Dbetter GeveryAday
