BONEY FINGERS 
Recorded by Hoyt Axton 
Words and music by Renee Armand and Hoyt Axton 
 
D5
See the rain comin' down and the roof won't hold 'er 
G5
Lost my job and I feel a little older 
A5
Car won't run and our love's grown colder 
                                 D5
But maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin' 
A5                           D5
Maybe things'll get a little better. 
 
Oh! the clothes need washin' and the fire won't start 
Kids all cryin' and you're breakin' my heart 
Whole darn place is fallin' apart 
Maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin' 
Maybe things'll get a little better. 
 
Refrain: 
          A5              A5               G5
Work your fingers to the bone - whadda ya get? 
                        D5         A5         D5
{P} ( Whoo-whoo ) Boney Fingers - Boney Fing gers. 
 
Yea! I've been broke as long as I remember 
Get a little money and I gotta run and spend 'er 
When I try to save it, pretty woman come and take it 
Sayin' maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin' 
Maybe things'll get a little better. 
 
Refrain: 
 
Yea! the grass won't grow and the sun's too hot 
The whole darn world is goin' to pot 
Might as well like it 'cause you're all that I've got 
But, maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin' 
Maybe things'll get a little better. 
 
Refrain:
