THUNDER   - BETTER MAN 
ALBUM     - BACKSTREET SYMPHONY
TABBED BY - Matt Gilroy

Key
 
 |: :| Play section between markers again

Note:-  Whenever I see Thunder live I think that Harry plays this song
with a capo on the 2nd fret.  Therefore.  I have transcribed this song
with that in mind.  All chords shown are indicated as if the capo was the 
open string.  Therefore.  An open `D' chord played is actually an E pitch.

Chords are only indicated where changes are made.  No attemp has been given
to transcribing the correct rhythm.

Any additions, comments are appreciated.  Enjoy!!

Verse 1  - (With rhythm fig 1)

Once in a while I drift in time
To a place in my memory that it still hurts to find
I was taking on a world with a see through smile
But dying on the inside all the while I was
Dying on the inside all the while...

Verse 2   - (With rhythm fig 1)

Like a martyr that don't want sympathy
I locked away my feelings and threw away the key
It was gonna take a miracle to pierce my pride
But you were the tower of strength that tried
                                               
When your loving walked right over me like the tide.
