Years from Now
Words and music by Dave Hause

[Another beautiful song from "Resolutions"; starts with quiet and minimal strumming,
working up to strong strumming by the end of the fourth verse before going minimal 
again for the last one. It sounds great to strum the final D with the open A string at 
the same time that the post-apocalyptic noise accompanies you on the recording. Worked 
out by yash.holbrook@gmail.com]

Tuning: Standard

Intro: Repeated D

[D] Years from now you'll hear this song and probably [G] laugh
You'll have [D] learned, and you'll think you can do [G] better
And [A] lord knows you probably [G] will
And [A] lord knows I hope you [D] will  
 
[D] Years from now someone will break your little [G] heart
It'll [D] sting, but don't let it callous [G] over
The [A] first cut stings the [G] most
The [A] first cut always stings the [D] most     
 
[D] Years from now, when what they taught you all seems [G] strange
Don't [D] despair, the stranger it gets the [G] better
It's [A] the fear that could drag you [G] down
Don't [A] let your fear come along and drag you [D] down
 
[D] Years from now, they'll promise pleasure, pills and [G] wine
Go on try them [D] all, but make sure your mama knows you [G] love her
[A] Lord knows you probably [G] will
[A] Lord knows I hope you [D] will   [G]
I hope you [D] will   [G]
 
[D] Years from now Jesus may keep you up at [G] night
If he's still [D] around I doubt he really means to [G] scare you
[A] I think he's misunder- [G] -stood
Don't you [A] hate being misunder- [D] -stood?    [G]
I hate being misunder- [D] -stood    [G]
