[Verse 1]
Cm                      G
    Set up the mission,    unfurl the flag
Ab                    Eb                 Bb
    It's time to lay roots down, take my head out of the bag
Cm                  G
    Make me a baby,    take me a wife
Ab              Eb           Bb
    With these things, maybe I'll be alright


[Chorus]
Abm            Ebm
    There's a better way
Abm                   Eb
    I know there's a better way
        Bb             Gb          F         Eb
When I need it, and I need it for sure every day


[Verse 2]
Cm                       G
    Fill up the museum,    an island in the sun
Ab                       Eb                  Bb
    More things that I don't need  just to pick me up

Cm                           G
    Jead for the waterfall,    don't drown in the juice
Ab                  Eb           Bb
    Make the right noises maybe I'll be alright


[Break]
Ab            Bb          Cm          Bb       Ab     Eb
How come it's so hard to climb and so easy to slide?
Ab                Bb     Cm      Bb           Ab     Eb
How come it's so easy to fly and so hard to thrive?


[Chorus]
Abm           Eb
    There's a better way
Abm                  Eb
    There must be a better way
         Bb              Gb          F         Eb
When we need it, and we need it for sure every day

Dm      Bb  Am  G

Dm      Bb      Dm      G

[Break]
Ab            Bb      Cm          Bb       Ab     Eb
It's so much harder,     so much harder to try
Ab      Bb       Cm       Bb          Ab     Eb
  It's easier to lie, to turn a blind eye.       But now,


[Chorus]
Abm            Eb
    There's a better way
Abm                        Eb
    I know that there's a better way
        Bb             Gb          F         Abm
When I need it, and I need it for sure every day

Abm            Eb
    There's a better way
Abm                  Eb
    It makes for a better day
        Bb                       Gb          F          Eb
When we need it, we need it, we need it for sure, every day, yeah yeah yeah

[Outro]
Cm                                G
    Unfurl the flag, unfurl the flag, got my head out of the bag
                       Ab              Eb          Bb
Got my head out of the bag, I know it makes for a better day
