hey i hear the voice of a preacher from the back room 
F 
calling my name and i follow just to find you 
C                                       G 
i  trace the faith to a broken down television and put on the weather 
C 
and i?ve trained myself to give up on the past 
F 
cause i frozen time between hearses and caskets 
C 
lost control when i panicked at the acid test 
G 
i wanna get better 
C                                               F 
while my friends were getting high and chasing girls down parkway lines i was losing my mind 
C                                               G 
cause the love, the love, the love, the love, the love that i gave wasted on a nice face 
C                                       F                              C       
in a blaze of fear i put a helmet on a helmet counting seconds through the night and got carried away 
                                G 
so now I?m standing on the overpass screaming at the cars hey I wanna get better 
C                       F 
i didn?t know i was lonely til i saw your face 
C               G 
i wanna get better 
C                       F 
i didn?t know i was broken til i wanted to change 
C               G 
i wanna get better 
C                
i go up to my room and there?s girls on the ceiling 
F 
cut out their pictures and i chase that feeling 
C 
of an eighteen year old, who didn?t know what loss was 
G 
now i?m a stranger 
C 
and i miss the days of a life still permanent 
F                       C 
mourn the years before i got carried away 

                                G 
so now i?m staring at the interstate, screaming at myself hey i wanna get better 

C                       F 
cause I?m sleeping in the back of a taxi 
                        C 
i?m screaming from my bedroom window 
F 
even if it?s gonna kill me 
C 
woke up this morning early before my family 
F 
from this dream where she was trying to show me 
C                               G 
how a life can move from the darkness, she said to get better 
C                                               F                      C 
so i put a bullet where i shoulda out a helmet and i crash my car cause i wanna get carried away 
                                G 
that?s why i?m standing on the overpass screaming at myself, hey, I WANNA GET BETTER
