Intro: G5 (hold until Ooh-oh, you can hear it change) A5 ( G5 D5 E5 2x)


G5                          D5
Up from the basement to my best friend's farm
            E5
Where we'll work so hard, we can do no harm
      G5                 D5
We'll till the land and duck our debts
     E5
Underneath soft sun, chewing Nicorette

G5         D5           E5   G5
This will be a better year
          D5           E5
This will be a better year

G5                    D5
Make a little money, take a lot of shit
E5
Feel real bad, then get over it

G5         D5           E5
This will be a better year

C5
Oh I keep pushing boulders
G5
I stay game till sun'll shake my shoulders
C5
Oh, I keep feeling older
G5
I stay game, stay game, stay game

G5                         D5
The East Coast kids, man, we just don't know
        E5
Singing wait, wait, stop, drop me, go, go, go
        G5                      D5
But I'm taken by the hand to a blue pay phone
       E5
We can break blue laws with our skin and bones

            G5                              D5
And now I'm back in the city, I'm counting frick frick frick
         E5
Heard of milk great things, speaking soft and thick
             G5                      D5
He said, "If life gives you lemons, then thus god bade.
         E5
So put a little bit of bitter in your pink lemonade"

      C5                       C5
I'm sick of thee sheep, I'm sick of thou shepherd
        G5
Sick of dressing like a human when I'm feeling like a leopard
    C5                      C5
I'm sick of slow rock, I'm sick of quick quips
        G5                                                        C5
Sick of holding on to nothing when I just want to hold your hips

G5         D5           E5   G5
This will be a better year
          D5           E5
This will be a better year

G5                    D5
Make a little money, take a lot of shit
E5
Feel real bad, then get over it

G5         D5           E5
This will be a better year

C5
Oh I keep pushing boulders
G5
I stay game till sun'll shake my shoulders
C5
Oh, I keep feeling older
G5                                 A5
I stay game, stay game, stay game


Then the nah-nahh part uses the C5 , C5 , G5 pattern - you can work it out
easily if you listen to the song.
