Intro: D G A D G A7 D
A7 A7/4 A7 D
Once I believed that when love came to me
A7 A7/4 A7 F#7
It would come with rockets, bells and poetry
Bm G
But with me and you
E7 A A7
It just started quietly and grew
D G
And believe it or not
D Bm Em
Now there's something groovy and good
A7 D D4 D
'Bout whatever we got
Em A7
And it's getting better
F#m Bm Em A7
Growing stronger, warm and wilder
D G A7 D G A7 D
Getting better every day, better every day
A7 A7/4 A7 D
I don't feel all turned on, and starry eyed
A7 A7/4 A7 F#7
I just feel a sweet contentment, deep inside
Bm G
Holding you at night
E7 A A7
Just seems kind of natural and right
D G
And it's not hard to see
D Bm Em
That it isn't half of what it's
A7 D D4 D
Gonna turn out to be
Em A7
'Cause it's getting better
F#m Bm Em A7
Growing stronger, warm and wilder
D G A7 D G A7
Getting better every day, better every day
Em A7 F#7 Bm G D
Bada,dada, dah, Bada,dada, dah
G D G
And I don't mind waiting, I don't mind waiting
D Bm Em
'Cause no matter how long it takes
A7 D D4 D
The two of us know
Em A7
That it's getting better
F#m Bm Em A7
Growing stronger, warm and wilder
D G A7 D G A7 D
Getting better every day, better every day
G A7 G D G A7 G D
Getting better every day, Getting better every day
G A7 G D G A7 G D
Getting better every day, Getting better every day...
