This Year

Opening: [D], [G], [A], [Bm], [Em7], [A]/[Asus4], [D]

[D]Here comes wintertime

Like a lon[G]g and dark nigh[A]t       [Bm]

[Em7]Man, I feel so unprepared this time              [A]                [Asus4]

[D]No stored heat just the smell of defeat and deceit                      [G]

Rolled in to one an[A]d then put on repeat  [Bm]

[Em7]I really need to get a hold of myself If I’m to get back on my feet         [A]           [Asus4]

’Cause this year I got my heart broken   [Gadd13]

Fears awoken, my beliefs s[Bm]haken and my dignity taken

But am I wro[Em7]ng to assume that the world is absurd

When rel[A]igion comes first and knowledge comes th[Bm]ird

And there’s a fast r[Gadd13]iver

that’s a slow killer and a cause for bonus[A]es at Phizer                      [Bm]

But advice her that she won’t get he[Em7]r pills if we don’t pay her bills

And it’s a sad story but greed is our top skill                    [A]                      [Asus4]                                         [D]

[D]So far so good          [G]                  [A]                          [Bm]                                  [Em7]

Except for a vague feeling that I should                [A]                  [Asus4]

[D]Not expect calls, family dinners, long vacations or pict[G]ures on [A]bedroom walls      [Bm]

[Em7]These are things I really don’t need at all                      [A]                        [Asus4]

I just hope she’s a heartbraker,[Gadd13]

Soulshaker and a lovemake[Bm]r or a damn good faker
’Cause I rea[Em7]lly don’t care about these little things

That make a househ[A]old work or makes her things rings     [Bm]

And it’s a long s[Gadd13]tory with no glory

Just mis[A]taken for an undertaking [Bm]that doesn’t need replicating

[Em7]Oh, these are things I really don’t need at all                         [A]                           [Asus4]

[G]  [Bm]  [Em7]  [A]  [Bm]  [G]  [A]  [Bm]  [Em7]

’Cause this year I got my heart broken   [Gadd13]

Fears awoken, my beliefs s[Bm]haken and my dignity taken

But am I wro[Em7]ng to assume that the world is absurd

When rel[A]igion comes first and knowledge comes th[Bm]ird

And there’s a fast r[Gadd13]iver

that’s a slow killer and a cause for bonus[A]es at Phizer                      [Bm]

But advice her that she won’t get he[Em7]r pills if we don’t pay her bills

And it’s a sad story but greed is our top skill                    [A]                      [Asus4]                                         [D]
