NOTE: In this Song/Video you can clearly see that ther are multiple guitars
playing this song. The first tab I have is without a capo and includes
the lead guitar part as well as one of the acoustic guitar chords. The
second tab is with a capo on the second fret and is for the 2nd acoustic
guitar for perhaps easier chords. Please use whichever one is most
comfortable to you to use. I personally like playing this song without
a capo and alternate playing the lead guitar and acoustic.

VERSE:
A E F#m D
Don’t like talking about it much
A E F#m D
Don’t like to think of that time
A E F#m D
We all got through, at least most of us did
D E
We almost lost our minds
A E F#m D
Everything was closed, there was nothing to do
A E F#m D
We didn’t go out at all
A E F#m D
We watched the news, and it kept getting worse
D E
Waiting for the sky to fall
CHORUS:
D A Asus4 A
We tried to get back to normal
D F#m
But “normal” was something new
D F#m
Starbucks was open, but the world was shut down
D E
Somehow we made our way through
D A Asus4 A
Now looking in the rear view mirror
D F#m
I really don’t know what to say
D F#m
Let’s lift a glass, to the ones that have passed
D E A
And the year that got away

VERSE:
A E F#m D
We all had time, lots of time on our hands
A E F#m D
Some things were bad, and some were good
A E F#m D
Got caught up on things we`d been putting off
D E
Walked around the neighbourhood
A E F#m D
As time went on there was no end in sight
A E F#m D
We all knew something had changed
A E F#m D
Even though we were all the same good people
D E
The whole world had been rearranged
CHORUS:
D A Asus4 A
We tried to get back to normal
D F#m

And the year that got away
BREAK:
D E A Asus4 A A Asus4 A
I’ll never take a hug for granted again
A D E F#m E
But it’s still so strange to shake your han-a-and

VERSE:
A E F#m D
And now we look to the future
A E F#m D
What kind of world it will be
A E F#m D
Everything’s the same but it’s all different now
D E
Nothing is quite as carefree
A E F#m D
Let’s live every day like it was the last
A E F#m D
Let’s learn from it but let’s move on
A E F#m D
You never know what tomorrow may bring
D
‘Cause you don’t know what you’re missing
E
Til it’s gone
