[Verse 1] I woke up with the bills on the chair Cold coffee, tired eyes, thin air My boots by the door, worn down But I still found a way to stand my ground [Pre-Chorus] Hear that knock at the window pane That old bad luck can’t stay the same I’ve been down, but I’m not done I feel the lift, I feel the sun [Chorus] Better days, better days They’re on their way Better days, better days I can feel them break (Oh, I can feel them break) Better days, better days Coming round to stay Better days, better days Won’t be long now [Verse 2] Mama said “baby, keep your chin up high” Even on nights when the moon won’t rise I’ve seen tears turn to rivers wide Then I watched that river turn the tide [Pre-Chorus] Hear that knock at the window pane That old bad luck can’t stay the same I’ve been down, but I’m not done I feel the lift, I feel the sun [Chorus] Better days, better days They’re on their way Better days, better days I can feel them break (Oh, I can feel them break) Better days, better days Coming round to stay Better days, better days Won’t be long now [Bridge] If the road gets steep tonight I’ll lean on faith and keep my stride Every scar got me this far Now I’m reaching for a brighter star (Reach for a brighter star) [Chorus] Better days, better days They’re on their way Better days, better days I can feel them break (Oh, I can feel them break) Better days, better days Coming round to stay Better days, better days Won’t be long now
