There’s no com bi (F)na tion of words I could (Dm)put on the back of a (C)post card,
no song that (Bb)I could sing.
But (Gm)I could try for (C)your heart and our (F)dreams, and they are (Dm)made out of real (C)things, like a shoe box of (Bb)pho to graphs with (Gm)se pi a tone (C)lov ing.
Love is the (F)an swer at least for (Dm)most of the ques tions in (C)my heart, like, “Why are we (Bb)here?” and “Where do we (Gm)go?” and “How come it’s (C)so hard?” And it’s not al ways (F)eas y and some times (Dm)life can be de (C)ceiv ing.
I’ll tell you one (Bb)thing: it’s al ways (Dm)bet ter when we’re to (C)geth er.
Mm, it’s al ways (C)bet ter when we’re to geth er.
Yeah, we look at the (C)stars when we’re to geth er.
Well, it’s al ways (C)bet ter when we’re to geth er.
Yeah, it’s al ways (C)bet ter when we’re to geth er.
And all of these (F)mo ments just might (F)find a way in to my (Dm)dreams to night, but I (Bb)know that they’ll be gone when the (Gm)morn ing light sings or brings new things.
For to (Dm)mor row night you see that (Bb)they’ll be gone too; too man y (Gm)things I have to (C)do.
But if all of these (F)dreams might find (F)their way in to my (Dm)day to day scene, I’d be (Bb)un der the im pres (Bb)sion I was (Gm)some where in be tween with on ly (F)two, just me and you, not so man y (Dm)things we got to (C)do or (Bb)plac es we got to (Bb)be.
We’ll sit be (Gm)neath the man go (C)tree now.
I be lieve in mem o (C)ries; they look so,
so pret ty when I sleep.
Hey, now and,
and when I wake
up, you look so (Gm)pret ty sleep ing next to (C)me.
But there is
not e nough time.
And there is no,
no song I could sing.
And there is no
com bi na tion of words I could say, but I will (Bb)still tell you one thing: We’re bet ter to geth er.

- Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature F. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.

- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Better Together" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature F, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
- Yes — slow the tempo from 100 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
