[Intro]
Fmaj7         Am
Better
   G
Nothing, baby
Em            Fmaj7
Nothing feels better
        Am                                     G
I'm not really drunk I never get that messed up
                      Em
I'm not, I'm so sober
 
[Verse 1]
  Fmaj7                        Am                         G
I love to see you shine in the night like the diamond you are
                                               Em
(I love to see you shine in the night like the diamond you are)
Fmaj7                       Am                          G
I'm good on the side, it's alright, just hold me in the dark
                                               Em
(I'm good on the side, it's alright, just hold me in the dark)
Fmaj7                      Am                        G
No one's gotta know what we do, hit me up when you're bored
                                        Em
(No one's gotta know what we do, hit me up when you're bored)
       Fmaj7
'Cause I live down the street
       Am                        G
So hit me when you need and it's yours
 
All I hear
 
[Chorus]
              Em         Fmaj7
Nothing feels better than this
                     Am
Nothing feels better
                          G
Nothing feels better than this
                           Em
Nothing feels better, oh no
Fmaj7                Am
We don't gotta hide, this is what you like
   G
I admit
              Dm
Nothing feels better than this
 
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7                                  Am                   G
You say that we're just friends but I swear when nobody's around
                                                   Em
(You say that we're just friends but I swear when nobody's around)
            Fmaj7                        Am                          G
You keep my hand around your neck, we connect, are you feeling it now?
 
(You keep my hand around your neck, we connect, are you feeling it now?)
           Em
'Cause I am
         Fmaj7                            Am                          G
I got so high the other night, I swear to God, felt my feet leave the ground
                                                         Em
(I got so high the other night, I swear to God I felt my feet lift the ground)
 
Ooh, yeah
     Fmaj7                         Am                       G
Your back against the wall this is all you've been talking about
          Em
In my ears
 
[Chorus]
                          Fmaj7
Nothing feels better than this
                    Am
Nothing feels better
                          G
Nothing feels better than this
                         Em
Nothing feels better, oh no
Fmaj7                Am
We don't gotta hide, this is what you like
       G
I admit
              Em
Nothing feels better than this
 
[Bridge]
               Fmaj7
Go left, right left, like
                        Am
Take you back, lean you side to side
     G
Like that, like that, ayy
   Fmaj7                Am
Go left, right left, like
                        G
Take you back, lean you side to side
    N.C.
Like
 
[Chorus]
                          Fmaj7
Nothing feels better than this
                    Am
Nothing feels better
                          G
Nothing feels better than this
                           Em
Nothing feels better, oh no
Fmaj7                Am
We don't gotta hide, this is what you like
   G
I admit
              Em          Fmaj7  Am     G       Em
Nothing feels better than this
 
[Outro]
                          Fmaj7  Am     G       Em
Nothing feels better than this

Just one small change I’d make is instead of Dm I’d switch back to the Am. Other than that it’s a great tab, thank you :)
