Em9         A13
Today's the day it gets better

Em9         A13
This much I know

Em9             A13
I'm gone, I'm getting out
Bridge:
            DM7                  D7
And all you suckers can watch me go

      C#m                  F#    Bm   Bm/A
And I don't know where I'm going yet

         Bm/G#             GM7                 A   D  A7
But it's somewhere quite a ways from here I'll bet
Chorus: (3x)
              G          D
It's gonna be so far, so good
Verse:
Em9         A13
Too late to make it all better

Em9            A13
This time it's real

Em9         A13
No need for looking back
Bridge:
              DM7               D7
Don't have to talk about how we feel

            C#m           F#       Bm   Bm/A
And there's no one we can pin this on

          Bm/G#               GM7             A    D A7
'Cause you can't see that it's going till it's gone
Chorus: (3x)
           G          D
But we got so far, so good
Banjo Solo: Bm Bm/G# Gmaj7 F#7 (3x) G A#13 D Verse:
Em9         A13
Too bad, we could have done better

Em9             A13
Next time we'll know

Em9     A13
So sad, should have been
Bridge:
        DM7                   D7
If only wishing could make it so

     C#m7                 F#7    Bm   Bm/A
In a thousand years we'll meet again

         Bm/G#                Gmaj7           A    D A7
With the saddest smile you'll ask me how I've been
Chorus: (3x)
              G          D
I'm gonna say so far, so good
