Listen to the live rendition for picking, subtle 7s and 9s, and strumming patterns.
Each time he performs the lyrics are a little different but this is the gist of it.
He swaps up where he plays the chord in relation to the first word of each line, so play freely.
Enjoy :D
(First half he picks a general 1,5,3,4 string pattern)
[Intro]
G C G Em C G Am G Em C
Oooo...
[Verse]
G C G
I want the air I breathed,
Em C
I want that heart that beats,
G C G
I want the best of me,
Em C
I want to rest in peace,
[Chorus]
G C G
I know I said tomorrow will be better than today.
C G
I guess I'm just beginning to learn the way,
C Am
I know I said tomorrow I'll be better than today.
G C G C G
I guess I'm just beginning to learn (*start strumming*) the way,
Em C
[Verse]
G C G
I feel a dawn in me,
Em C
A tired man awoke,
G C G D
An oppor-tu-nity,
Em C
To live the words I spoken,
[Chorus]
G C G
I know I said tomorrow I'll be better than today,
C G
I guess I'm just beginning to learn the way,
C G
I know I said tomorrow I'll be better than today,
C G C
I guess I'm just beginning to learn the way...

G C G C
[Verse]
G C G D
So here's my chance to say,
Em C G
I'm sorry for my old ways,
C G D
I feel like two different men,
Em C
The one who tries, the one who fails,
Again and again,
[Chorus]
G C G
I know I said tomorrow I'll be better than today,
C
I guess I'm just beginning to learn the way,
G C G
I know I said tomorrow I'll be better than today,
C G
I guess I'm just beginning to learn the way.
