This Year

Intro: C  F

 C
Another year older, it came and went
Blood and the tears and the money 
spent
    F
The new year's here with the same 
old cast
We dance and we drink like it may be
 our last
C
Buzzing and waiting for the 
countdown to come
Feels like slow motion, from ten to 
one
  F
A kiss and the fireworks light the 
sky
Falling apart over Auld Lang Syne
      G
Let's focus on this night alone
                                C
Just hope that we make it home alive

The Earth it turns, spring rushes in
Days get longer and nights grow thin
F
Mother wakes up a little brighter 
than before
Cold melts away and the gardens grow
    C
The air is crisp and the fields are 
sweet
Grass and the daffodils tickling our
 feet
F
Flowers they bloom and the birds 
they sing
Fill up the day with the songs they 
bring
      G
And I don't feel much like singing 
at all
Seasons change, but I don't change 
  C
at all

                Am
Well, I've done wrong
                F             C
Well, I've done right, that's clear
               Am
Maybe I'll get better

              F               C
Maybe I'll be different, this year

Ooh, here comes summer, well it's 
coming in hot
No shirt, no school, give it all you
 got
    F
The sun, it calls, so let's go 
outside
Toasting our drinks in the warm 
sunshine
    C
The asphalt smoulders in the city 
streets
You better run fast or you're gonna 
burn your feet
F
Splashing and yelling, the 
cannonball
Enough love and laughter for one and
 all
       G
Oh the future's, future's looking 
bright
I think that I might get it right 
      C
after all

Moody autumn blows in off a summer 
wind
Leaves fall off of the trees, never 
see them again
     F
Like embers, they float into the 
streets
Golden and red at the fancy feast
            C
Well, let's close all the curtains, 
let's stay inside
No flower, no fruit and the lawns 
all die
      F
Well, how could it all fall apart so
 fast
And why would I think it would ever 
last?
     G
When everything is dying
                       C
Well, how can I feel alive?

         G6 Am
Oh, life is short
          G6   F          C
Well, all good days disappear
                Am
Maybe I've been lost
               F             C
Maybe I'll get found, this year

Well, the winter and the cold come 
storming in
Kicks down the door and your blood 
runs thin
F
Day's too short and the night's too 
long
Carollers came, I can't sing along
    C
Oh, money's all gone, don't know 
where it went
Christmas ain't easy when you can't 
pay the rent
        F
And the lights go out to a silent 
night
And all you can do is just stay in 
the fight
      G
And I just can't see the wrong
                           C
And I just can't see the right

            Am
Oh, life is hard
          F               C
I've been fighting, a failure
                Am
Maybe I've been lost
                     F          
Don't think I'll get found, this 
   C
year

           G6   Am
Well, I've done wrong
           G6   F              C
Well, I've done right, that's clear
                   Am
But maybe I'll get better
              F                 C
Maybe I'll be different, next year
