[Verse 1]
GGrace Cathedral hill all Emwrapped in bones of a setting sun, all Cdust and stone and moribund. I paid Dtwenty-five cents to light a D7little white candle Gfor a New Year's Day. I Emsat and watched it burn away then Cturned and weaved through the slow decay. We were Dboth a little hungry so we D7went to get a hotdog. GDown the Hyde St. Pier, the Emlight was slight and disappeared. The Cair, it stunk of fish and beer We heard a Dsuperman trumpet play the D7National Anthem.
[Chorus]
CAnd the world may beG long, fEmor, yCou, but he'll never beGlong, tEmo, yCou. But on a motorbikeCm, when all the city lights Dblind your eyes toD7night, are you feeling Cbetter now? .....D.. Are you feeling Gbeeeettttter..noooEmoww. Are you feeling Cbetter now? Cm
[Verse 2]
GSome way to greet the year: yourEm eyes all bright and, brimmed with tears. The Cpilgrims, pills and tourists here all sing D"Fifty three bucks D7to buy a brand new halo." GI'm sweet on a green-eyed girl, all Emfiery Irish clip and curl, all Cbrine and piss and vinegar. I paid Dtwenty-five vents to light a D7little white candle.
[Chorus]
CAnd the world may beG long, fEmor, yCou, but he'll never beGlong, tEmo, yCou. But on a motorbikeCm, when all the city lights Dblind your eyes toD7night, are you feeling Cbetter now? .....D.. Are you feeling Gbeeeettttter..noooEmoww. Are you feeling Cbetter now? Cm
