I've improved this over my own version of a year ago


BETTER DAYS     Eddie Vedder


G           D              G           D
    I feel part of the universe opened up to meet me.
G        D            G             D
    My emotion so submerged  broken down to kneeling
C         Cmaj7     C6          C
Once listening      voices they came


G              D        G              D
    Had to somehow read myself, read myself
G           D                G            D
   Heard vibration within my cells, in my cells
           F             Fadd9
Singing    ah ah ah ah,  ah ah ah ah


G              D               G
    My love is safe for the universe
       D               G
See me now I'm bursting
        D             G                D
On one planet so many turns, different worlds
          F             Fadd9
Singing   ah ah ah ah,  ah ah ah ah

        D               G
From my heart with discipline
          D
Put there for the teaching
G         D                   G
    In my head see clouds of stairs
        D
Help me as I'm reaching
C            Cmaj7    C6          D
The future's paved    with better days

G    Cadd9   G7   C   Csus4   C   G

G           Cadd9           G7                      C   
I'm running from something, I'm running towards the day
 Csus4 C G       
 Wide    awake.

G         Cadd9       G7               C   
A whisper once quiet, now rising to a scream
Csus4  C G       
I am     me.

G           Cadd9         G7                 C   
I' falling, free fallin?, world's calling me
Csus4   C   G       
Above   my  needs.

G               Cadd9             G7                           C   
Oh I'm soaring, yeah and darlin'  you'll be the one that I can need
    Csus4   C    G       
And still   be   free.

G            Cadd9      G7           C   Csus4   C    G       
Our future?s paved with better days.
