\nWell I [D] lost my job and I feel a little older
\n[E] Car won’t run and our love’s grown colder

\n[E] Maybe things’ll get a little [A] better<\/p>\n

The [A] clothes need washin’ and the fire won’t start
\n[D] Kids all cryin’ and you’re breakin’ my heart
\n[E] Whole damn place is fallin’ apart, but
\nMaybe things’ll get a little [A] better, in the mornin’
\n[E] Maybe things’ll get a little [A] better<\/p>\n

{ CHORUS } – – – Work your [E] fingers to the bone what do you [D] get … ? . . . Bony [A] Fingers… [E] Bony [A] Fingers<\/span><\/p>\n

[A] I’ve been broke as long as I remember
\nWell I [D] get a little money, I gotta run and spend ‘er
\n[E] When I try to save it, pretty woman come and take it
\nSayin’ maybe things’ll get a little [A] better, in the mornin’
\n[E] Maybe things’ll get a little [A] better.<\/p>\n

[A] The grass won’t grow and the sun’s too hot
\nThe [D] whole darn world is goin’ to pot
\n[E] Might as well like it ’cause you’re all that I’ve got
\nBut, maybe things’ll get a little [A] better, in the mornin’
\n[E] Maybe things’ll get a little [A] better<\/p>\n

{ CHORUS }<\/span><\/p>\n

[A] Rain comin’ down and the roof won’t hold ‘er
\nWell I [D] lost my job and I feel a little older

\nMaybe things’ll get a little [A] better, in the mornin’
\n[E] Maybe things’ll get a little [A] better<\/p>\n
