       F#m E     C#m   B   E
Oh-oh, I'm still liv - ing
       F#m  E  C#m   B    E
at the old     add - ress
        F#m    E          C#m   B   E
And I'm wait - ing on the wea - ther
       F#m  E    G#m
that I know will pass
G#m - [bass gallop until 'good'] --->
I, know that its true
                E [ascend]    A  B  
It's gonna be a good year

           E [ascend]  A
Out of the darkness
                 B
and into the fire
                E [ascend]  A     
I'll tell you I love you
                                B
and my heart's in the strangest place
              E [ascend] A
that's how it started
               B
and I try this

E       F#m  E      C#m  B  E
  And I know you're with me
       F#m  E   C#m    B  E
It's a point of pride
         F#m  E   C#m    B    E
And it's louder than lightning
        C#m  E  G#m
in this room of mine

Oh, I'm just like you
                 E [ascend] A
I never hear the bad news
               B
And I'll never win
            E [ascend]  A
We won by a landslide
                B
Our trouble are over
               E [ascend]  A
My sisters are married
                    B
to all of my friends
                   E [ascend] A  B
Yeah that's how it started

                [descend]
You took you're sweet time
             [descend]
and I waited by without complaint
             [descend]
til' all the pipedreams
     [descend]     E - - ->
made me unseen
- - - - - > [E stops/descend]
So it's all over
    [descend]
It's all over anyhow
              [descend]
You took your sweet time
       [descend]   E [ascend]  A  B
and finally I open my eyes
E [climb]  A  B

               E [ascend]  A
I've frozen my failures
                 B
Well asking of me
                  E [ascend]  A  
how long will you ramble?
                   B
And obvious I will be
             E [ascend]  A
slowly still falling
             B
I'm over (?)
             E [ascend]  A  B
(I'm created new year) (?)

E [ascend]  A  B
