Verse 1
D 
Well, my soul checked out missing,
as I said
A 
listening to the hours ticking away
Bm 
Em 
Just sitting around
waiting for my life to begin
G 
While it was just slipping away
D 
I'm tired of waiting for tomorrow to come
Bm 
Or that train come roaring 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
G 
Better days are shining through
D 
These are better days, baby
Em 
G 
D 
Better days with a girl like you
Well I took a piss, fortune sweet kiss
Bm 
It's like eating 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 dragging
when from a gypsy wagon
Bm 
Your heart like a diamond show
Em 
Tonight I'm laying in your arms
Carving lucky charms
G 
Out of these hard luck bones
D 
These are better days, baby
G 
Better days are shining through,
D 
these are better days baby,
G 
A 
better days with a  girl like
D 
Em 
Bm 
Em 
G 
you.
D 
Now a life of leisure and a
pirate's treasure
Bm 
Don't make much for tragedy
Em 
But it's a sad man, my friend,
who is living in his own skin
G 
And can't stand the company
D 
Every fool's got a reason
to feel sorry for himself
Bm 
And turn his heart to stone
Em 
Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven,
just a mile out of hell
G 
And I feel like coming home
D 
These are better days, baby
G 
Better days are shining through
D 
These are better days, baby
G 
A 
D 
Better days with a  girl like you
These are better days, baby
G 
Better days, it's true
D 
These are better days, baby
G 
A 
D 
Better days with a girl like you
