Something Better

D D/C# D/B D/A G D Em A


[Verse]

 D
 He walks along

 D/C#
 singing his fairy song,

 D/B
 picking up magic that

 D
 grows at his feet.

 D
 She says her same

 D/C#
 her peculiar way,

 D/B
 dreaming good fortune on

 D          G
 everyone's street.


[Chorus]

 C
 Say, hey,

 F
 have you heard

      C             F
 blue whiskey's the rage ?

      Am         C          F   C
 I'll send you a jug in the mor-ning.

 D       G       D         G
 It is absurd to live in a cage,

     Em                  F#m          A
 you know there's got to be something better.


[Verse]

 D
 As they go by,

 D/C#
 don't look with eagle's eyes,

 D/B
 smile on your jailors

 D
 until they grow weak.

 D
 Nothing can compare

 D/C#
 to something that's almost there

 D/B
 to tear up the madness

 D              G
 that all of us seek.


[Chorus]

 C
 Say, hey,

 F
 have you heard

      C             F
 blue whiskey's the rage ?

      Am         C          F   C
 I'll send you a jug in the mor-ning.

 D       G       D         G
 It is absurd to live in a cage,

     Em                  F#m          A
 you know there's got to be something better.
