BETTER DAYS CHORDS
[Start] [Verse] D ■ Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening Bm To the hours and minutes tickin' away Em Yeah just sittin' around waitin' for my life to begin G While it was all just slippin' away D And I'm tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come Bm Or that train to come roarin' round the bend Em I got a new suit of clothes and a pretty red rose G And a woman I can call my friend D These are better days baby [Chorus] G Yeah there's better days shining through D These are better days baby Em G D Better days with a girl like you [Verse] D Well I took a piss at fortune's sweet kiss Bm It's like eatin' caviar and dirt Em It's a sad funny ending to find yourself pretending G A rich man in a poor man's shirt D Now my ass was draggin' when from a passin' gypsy wagon Bm Your heart like a diamond shone Em Tonight I'm layin' in your arms carvin' lucky charms G Out of these hard luck bones [Chorus] D These are better days baby G These are better days it true D These are better days baby G A D There's better days shining through [Solo] G Bm Em Em7 G D ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Verse] D Now a life of leisure and pirate's treasure Bm7 Don't make much for tragedy Em But it's a sad man my friend who's livin' in his own skin G And can't stand the company D Every fool's got a reason for feelin' sorry for himself Bm And turning his heart to stone Em Em7 Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell G And I feel like I'm comin' home [Chorus] D These are better days baby G There's better days shining through D These are better days baby G D Better days with a girl like you A D These are better days baby G These are better days it's true D These are better days baby G A D Better days are shining through A These are better days baby D Are better days it's true D These are better days baby G Better days are shining through D These are better days baby G Are better days it's true A D These are better days baby D Better days are shining through G D G A D ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ [Outro]
