BETTER DAYS
Bruce Springsteen
[E] Well my soul checked out missin' as I sat listenin'
To the [C#m] hours
and minutes tickin' away.
Yeah, just [F#m] sittin around waitin' for my life to begin
While it was [A] all just slippin'
away
Well I'm [E] tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come
For the [C#m] train to come rollin' 'round the bend
I
got a [F#m] new suit of clothes and a pretty red rose
And a [A] woman I can call my friend
These are Better [E] Days,
baby,
Yeah, there's [A] Better Days shinin' [E] through
These are Better [A] Days, baby,
Better [F#m] Days with
a [A] girl like [E] you
Well [E] I took a piss at fortune's sweet kiss
[C#m] It's like eatin' cavier in the dirt
It's a [F#m] sad funny ending when you find yourself pretending
To be a [A] rich man in a poor man's shirt
Now
my [E] ass was draggin from a passin' gypsy wagon
[C#m] Your heart like a diamond shone
Now Im [F#m] lyin in your
arms, carving lucky charms
[A] Out of these hard luck bones
These are Better [E] Days, baby
Yeah, there's [A]
Better Days shinin' [E] through
These are Better [E] Days, baby
Better [A] Days are [B] shining [E] through
Instrumental:
[A][C#m][F#m][A][E]
Now a [E] life of leisure, and a pirate's treasure
Don't [C#m] make much for tragedy.
It's
a [F#m] sad man, my friend, whose livin' in his own skin,
[A] And can't stand the company.
Every [E] fools got a reason
to feel sorry for himself
[C#m] And turning his heart to stone
Tonight this fools [F#m] half way to heaven, just a
mile out of hell
[A] And I feel like I'm comin' home!
These are Better [E] Days, baby,
Yeah, there's [A] Better
Days shinin' [E] through
These are Better [A] Days, baby,
Better [F#m] Days with a [A] girl like [E] you
These
are Better [E] Days, baby
Yeah, there's [A] Better Days shinin' [E] through
These are Better [E] Days, baby
Better
[A] Days are [B] shining [E] through
