G A D You got off to a pretty good start, you were on your way G A Bm With big plans and an open heart, workin' hard everyday G A D Bm But the storms came one by one, and big plans came a crashin' down G A D You're tired of losing faith in everyone around G Bm So you hide your broken heart with a smile, A D pretending that there's nothing wrong G D Bm Brother won't you trust me for a little while, listen to my song G A There will be better days, for the brave D Bm There will be better days G A There will be better days, for the brave D There will be better days I know this world moves way too fast, it's hard to find steady ground Life just keeps on slipping past, it's gone without a sound I see you walk with your head hanging low, you stopped even wondering why No longer trying to win, you're happy just to get by Chorus INSTRUMENTAL CHORUS
