As recorded by Fastball (From the 1998 Album ALL THE PAIN MONEY CAN BUY) [Intro] A [Verse 1]
A
Once I had it all planned out

   B
My dirty fingers moved about

   D              E           A        E
To make a mess of everything around me

A
I don't claim to know my way

        B
I still run in circles every day

D                   E
Running around half blind

Dm            E
Life can be unkind
[Chorus]
E                       A
But it's better than it was

                    F#m
It's better than it was

     D                   E
I complain very little because

                    A    E
It's better than it was
[Verse 2]
A
I get to remembering

   B
We had a lot more money then

   D              E           A        E
To make a mess of everything around us

A
Now the money comes and goes

      B
A bit faster than my confidence grows

D         E
Everybody knows

            Dm                E
There ain't nothing new about money woes
[Chorus]
E                       A
But it's better than it was

                    F#m
It's better than it was

                    D E
It's better than it was

                    F#m             E              A
It's better than we ever could have wished it to before
[Bridge]
F#m          E          Dm            E7
It was bad a while ago, better this I know
[Guitar Solo] B G#m7 E F# [Out-Chorus]
                    B
It's better than it was

               G#m
Better than it was

     E                   F#
I complain very little because

                    B
It's better than it was

B
Better than it was

B
Better than it was

B
Better than it was
