Capo 1
In the verses, I like to do a [ D5 ] to [ D5 ] to [ G5 ] walkup but it isn't necessary ?
I just think it sounds a lot better.
Intro Chords: [ D5 ] [ G5 ] [ D5 ] [ G5 ]ss
[ D5 ] [ D5 ] [ G5 ] [ D5 ]
It's New Years day, just like the day before
[ D5 ] [ D5 ] [ G5 ] [ A5 ]
Same old sky of gray same empty bottles on the floor
[ B5 ] [ G5 ] [ D5 ] [ A5 ]
Another year gone by and I'm thinkin once again
[ D5 ] [ A5 ] [ G5 ]
How can I take this losin' hand, and somehow win
Chorus 1:
[ D5 ] [ G5 ]
Just give me one good year
[ D5 ]
To get my feet back on the ground
[ D5 ] [ D5 ] [ B5 ] [ A5 ] [ G5 ]
I've been chasin grace, but grace ain't so easily found
[ G5 ] [ D5 ]
One bad hand can devil a man
[ G5 ] [ D5 ]
Chase him and carry him down
[ G5 ] [ A5 ] [ D5 ] [ G5 ]
I gotta get out of here, just give me one good year
I'm burnin oil, engines runnin rough
I drive from job to job but it's never enough
I cant find the will to just up and get away
Some kind of chain's holdin' me down and makes me stay
Chorus
Bridge
[ G5 ] [ A5 ]
Its a bitter wind
[ B5 ]
In your face everyday
[ F#5 ]
Its the little sins
[ D5 ]
That wear your soul away
[ G5 ] [ A5 ]
When you start givin in
[ B5 ]
Where do the promises all go
[ F#5 ] [ A5 ]
Will your darkest hour write a blank check on your soul
Solo
