A      C#m            D
You believe in all I say
         F#m       E   C#m
Then you throw it all away
   D        F#m       Bm  Bm7
Before you close the door
D        E     C#m
Are you really any
D
Better off than before?

[Verse 2]
A       C#m                 D
You go rambling through my day
          F#m       E        C#m
While I'm out here making my way
       D      F#m        Bm  Bm7
Yet, still, I walk the floor
D     E     C#m
Am I really any
D
Better off than before?

[Chorus]
A                            Bm7
Things ain't never looked so rosy
E                C#m
Everything'll be okay
A                   Bm7
I couldn't be much better
     D  E
If I tried

[Verse 3]
A      C#m            D
When I get myself to bed
          F#m        E        C#m
With the words that never got said
D       F#m     Bm  Bm7
Turning on the news
D      E    C#m
Are we ever any
D
Better off when we lose?
E                          Esus4
And we can pick and choose

[Verse 4]
A              C#m           D
You found the pathway to my heart
          F#m         E       C#m
'Til the cruel world took it apart
   D      F#m       Bm  Bm7
Before I close the door
D        E     C#m
Are you really any
D
Better off than before?

[Verse 5]
A     C#m           D
You meander in my dreams
          F#m    E     C#m
Leave me halfway in between
D    F#m       Bm  Bm7
So I hit the floor
D     E     C#m
Am I really any
D
Better off than before?

[Chorus]
F#m                          Bm7
Things ain't never looked so rosy
E                    C#m
Everything'll be all right
A                   Bm7
I couldn't be much better
     D  E
If I tried

[Verse 6]
A       C#m                 D
You go rambling through my mind
     F#m       E          C#m
On a path I'm hoping I'll find
D      F#m      Bm  Bm7
Turning on the news
D       E   C#m
Are we ever any
D
Better off when we lose?
E                          Esus4
And we can pick and choose

[Interlude]
A C#m D F#m G# C#m

[Verse 7]
D        F#m        Bm  Bm7
Still, I walk the floor
D       E     C#m
Are we really any
D
Better off than before?
Bm7
Better off than before?
