[VERSE 1]
G
Let's begin where the story ends
     Em7                          G
I'll try to explain how I lost my friends
  G
I didn't stop when I knew I should
         Em7                        G
I've got nothing now, it's gone for good


[CHORUS 1]
G                            Em7
   I guess they want me dead,   a bounty on my head
D                           C
   I say just let them come,  yeah bring them on
G                        Em7
   Are you listening now?   Can I get through somehow?
D
   I've been waiting for so long
C
   This is last year's song

[VERSE 2]
   G
It all began in this prayed up town
          Em7                                      G
(You were looking for a way out, love strapped you down)
  G                         Am         Em
I turned and ran as we were taking our vows
   Em                       C       G
It sure is hard to run in a wedding gown


[CHORUS 2]
G                      Em7
   So I stole your car, and ran it through your heart
D                       C
   And the radio was on, playing last year's song
G                              Em7
   And if you're listening now, can I get through somehow?
D
   You know I never did you wrong
C
   That was last year's song


[BRIDGE]
Bm                               Am
   I heard you fell in love again (with what's her name)
                        Bm
She used to be my friend (not anymore)
                             Am       C    D
I hope you'll make it in the end, I'm free now


[FINAL CHORUS 1]
G | | Em7 | |

       D                              C
No I'm not afraid now, no, no, no I'm not afraid now
         G            D/F#          C
Yeah I'm on my way now    and I got through somehow


[FINAL CHORUS 2]
G                          Em7
   If you're listening now, I bet you hear that sound
D                              C
   Of the preacher's raging on, banning last year's song
G                        Em7
   Are you listening now?   Did I get through somehow?
D                                  C              C
   When you're finally catching on, then I'm gone, like last year's song

It's gone away now, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're on your way now
      G                 D/F#           Cmaj7
It is New Year's Day now     and I got through somehow
