1. See the rain comin' down and the roof won't hold 'er
    D
   Lost my job and I feel a little older
    E
   Car won't run and our love's grown colder
    E                                A
   But maybe things'll get a little better, in the mornin'
    E                            A
   Maybe things'll get a little better.

2. 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:
    A         E                               D
   Work your fingers to the bone - whadda ya get?
    D     A         E     A
   Boney Fingers - Boney Fing-gers.

3. 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

4. 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.
