Am
See the great white stars
F
Over Battery park
Dm
Then a flare glides over
F
But I wont look at that star
Am
Oh my nuclear baby
F
Oh my idiot trance
Dm
All my idiot questions
F
Lets face the music and dance

                    A
Don't ever say I'm really I'm really I'm really
                  F
I never said I'm better I'm better I'm better
                    D
Don't ever say I'm really I'm really I'm really
                  F
I never said I'm better I'm better I'm better
                D#
I'm better than you

        A#              F
All the corners of the buildings
Cm      A#          D#
Who but we remember these
F                   D#
The sidewalks and trees
F
I'm thinking now

Chorus:
D#          F      D#   C#
I've got a better way - and the stars in the stone
D#          F      D#    C#
I've got a better way - Ready, set, go
D#          F      D# C#
I've got a better way - a New Killer Star
D#          F      D#    C#
I've got a better way - Ready, set, go
D#          F      D#        C#
I've got a better way - The Stars in your eyes
D#          F      D#    C#
I've got a better way - Ready set go
D#          F      D#  C#
I've got a better way - I discovered a star
D#          F      D#    C#
I've got a better way - Ready set go

See my life in a comic
Like the way they did the Bible
With the bubbles and action
The little details in color
First a horseback bomber
(We'll discover a star)
Just a small thin chance
Like seeing Jesus on Dateline
(Like the stars in your eyes)
Let's face the music and dance

Don't ever say I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'll never said I'm better, I'm better, I'm better
Don't ever say I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'll never said I'm better, I'm better,
I'm better, I'm better than you

All the corners of the buildings
Who but we remember these?
The sidewalks and trees
I'm thinking now

Chorus:
I've got a better way - and the stars
I've got a better way - Ready, set, go
I've got a better way - a New Killer Star
I've got a better way - Ready, set, go
I've got a better way - Stars in your eyes
I've got a better way - Ready set go
I've got a better way - Ive discovered a star
I've got a better way - Ready set go
I've got a better way
I've got a better way - Ready set go
I've got a better way
I've got a better way - Ready set go
I've got a better way
I've got a better way - Ready set go
