Better Days chords
Bruce Springsteen *

E

        EWell my soul checked out missing as I sat listening 
                                  C#mTo the hours and minutes ticking away 
          F#mYeah just sitting around waiting for my life to begin 
                                AWhile it was all just slipping away 
   EIm tired of waiting for tomorrow to come 
                                         C#mOr that train to come roaring round the bend 
        F#mI got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose 
                          AAnd a woman I can call my friend 

                 EThese are better days baby 
                                AYeah theres better days shining through 
                 EThese are better days baby 
       F#m         A         EBetter days with a girl like you 

       EWell I took a piss at fortunes sweet kiss 
                           C#mIts like eating caviar and dirt 
    F#mIts sad funny ending to find yourself pretending 
                           AA rich man in a poor mans shirt 
       ENow my ass was dragging when from a passing gypsy wagon 
                          C#mYour heart like a diamond shone 
            F#mTonight Im laying in your arms carving lucky charms 
                       AOut of these hard luck bones 

                 EThese are better days baby 
                           AThese are better days its true 
                 EThese are better days 
              F#m  A       ETheres better days shining through 
      ENow a life of leisure and a pirates treasure 
                        C#mDont make much for tragedy 
          F#mBut its a sad man my friend whos living in his own skin
                        AAnd cant stand the company 
      EEvery fools got a reason for feeling sorry for himself 
                         C#mAnd turning his heart to stone 
             F#m            Tonight this fools halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell 
                          AAnd I feel like Im coming home 

                 EThese are better days baby 
                           AThese are better days its true 
                 EThese are better days 
              F#m  A       ETheres better days shining through

                 EThese are better days baby 
                                AYeah theres better days shining through 
                 EThese are better days baby 
       F#m         A         EBetter days with a girl like you  2x
