D
Well my soul checked out missin' as I sat listenin'
D Bm
To the hours and minutes tickin' away.

Em G
While it was all just slippin' away
D
Well I'm tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come

For the train to come rollin' 'round the bend
Em
I got a new suit of clothes and a pretty red rose
Em G
A women I can call my friend

To be a rich man in a poor man's shirt
D
Now my ass was draggin from a passin' gypsy wagon

Your heart like a diamond shown

Tryin' to lay it in your arms, count the lucky charms
Em G
Get out of these hard luck bones

These are Better Days, baby Yeah, there's Better Days shinin' through
G D Em G D

Now a life of leisure, and a pirate's treasure Don't make much for tragedy.
Em
It's a sad man, my friend, whose livin' in his own skin,

And can't stand the company.
D Bm
Every fools got a reason to feel sorry for himself And turning his heart to stone
Em
Drag this fool half way to heaven, just a mile on to hell
Em G
And I feel like I'm comin' home!
