Better Days - Single Edit

[00:07.62] Well, my soul checked out missing as I sat listening
[00:12.03] To the hours and minutes tickin' away
[00:15.48] Yeah, just sittin' 'round waitin' for my life to begin
[00:19.58] While it was all just slippin' away
[00:23.51] Well, I'm tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come
[00:27.50] For that train to come roarin' 'round the bend
[00:31.66] I got a new suit of clothes and a pretty red rose
[00:35.93] A woman I can call my friend
[00:38.96] These are better days, baby
[00:43.52] Yeah, there's better days shining through
[00:46.86] These are better days, baby
[00:51.66] Better days with a girl like you
[00:57.69] Well, I took a piss at fortune's sweet kiss
[01:01.27] It's like eatin' caviar and dirt
[01:05.46] It's a sad, funny ending to find yourself pretending
[01:09.77] A rich man in a poor man's shirt
[01:13.17] Now my ass was draggin' when from a passin' gypsy wagon
[01:17.52] Your heart like a diamond shone
[01:21.11] Tonight, I'm layin' in your arms, carvin' lucky charms
[01:25.46] Get out of these hard-luck bones
[01:28.85] These are better days, baby
[01:33.38] These are better days, it's true
[01:36.76] These are better days, baby
[01:41.29] Better days shining through
[01:45.36]
[02:03.12] Now a life of leisure and a pirate's treasure
[02:07.29] Don't make much for tragedy
[02:11.14] But it's a sad man, my friend, who's livin' in his own skin
[02:15.49] And can't stand the company
[02:19.16] Every fool's got a reason for feelin' sorry for himself
[02:23.43] And turning his heart to stone
[02:26.78] Tonight, this fool's halfway to Heaven and just a mile outta Hell
[02:31.27] And I feel like I'm comin' home
[02:34.56] These are better days, baby
[02:39.36] There's better days shining through
[02:42.37] These are better days, baby
[02:47.06] Better days with a girl like you
[02:50.46] These are better days, baby
[02:55.12] These are better days, it's true
[02:58.50] These are better days, baby
[03:02.94] Better days are shining through
[03:06.46] These are better days, baby
[03:10.74] Oh, better days, it's true
[03:14.18] These are better days, baby
[03:18.93] Better days are shining through
[03:22.22] These are better days, baby
[03:26.75] Oh, better days, it's true
[03:30.21] These are better days, baby
[03:34.88] Better days with a girl like you (better days are shining through)
[03:38.37] These are better days, baby
[03:41.92]
