The White Buffalo - This Year


INTRO: C majorC FF

 C majorC
Another year older, it came and went

Blood and the tears and the money spent
  FF
The new year's here with the same old cast

We dance and we drink like it may be our last
C majorC
Buzzing and waiting for the countdown to come

Feels like slow motion, from ten to one
 FF
A augmentedA kiss and the fireworks light the sky

Falling apart over Auld Lang Syne
   G+G
Let's focus on this night alone
                C majorC
Just hope that we make it home alive

The Earth it turns, spring rushes in

Days get longer and nights grow thin
FF
Mother wakes up a little brighter than before

Cold melts away and the gardens grow
  C majorC
The air is crisp and the fields are sweet

Grass and the daffodils tickling our feet
FF
Flowers they bloom and the birds they sing

Fill up the day with the songs they bring
   G+G
And I don't feel much like singing at all
                   C majorC
Seasons change, but I don't change at all


CHORUS:
        A minorAm
Well, I've done wrong
        FF       C majorC
Well, I've done right, that's clear
        A minorAm
Maybe I'll get better
       FF        C majorC
Maybe I'll be different, this year

Ooh, here comes summer, well it's coming in hot

No shirt, no school, give it all you got
  FF
The sun, it calls, so let's go outside

Toasting our drinks in the warm sunshine
  C majorC
The asphalt smoulders in the city streets

You better run fast or you're gonna burn your feet
FF
Splashing and yelling, the cannonball

Enough love and laughter for one and all
    G+G
Oh the future's, future's looking bright
                    C majorC
I think that I might get it right after all


Moody autumn blows in off a summer wind

Leaves fall off of the trees, never see them again
   FF
Like embers, they float into the streets

Golden and red at the fancy feast
      C majorC
Well, let's close all the curtains, let's stay inside

No flower, no fruit and the lawns all die
   FF
Well, how could it all fall apart so fast

And why would I think it would ever last?
   G+G
When everything is dying
            C majorC
Well, how can I feel alive?


CHORUS:
     G6G6 A minorAm
Oh, life is short
     G6G6  FF     C majorC
Well, all good days disappear
        A minorAm
Maybe I've been lost
        FF       C majorC
Maybe I'll get found, this year


Well, the winter and the cold come storming in

Kicks down the door and your blood runs thin
FF
Day's too short and the night's too long

Carollers came, I can't sing along
  C majorC
Oh, money's all gone, don't know where it went

Christmas ain't easy when you can't pay the rent
    FF
And the lights go out to a silent night

And all you can do is just stay in the fight
   G+G
And I just can't see the wrong
              C majorC
And I just can't see the right


CHORUS:
      A minorAm
Oh, life is hard
     FF        C majorC
I've been fighting, a failure
        A minorAm
Maybe I've been lost
           FF       C majorC
Don't think I'll get found, this year


CHORUS:
      G6G6  A minorAm
Well, I've done wrong
      G6G6  FF       C majorC
Well, I've done right, that's clear
          A minorAm
But maybe I'll get better
       FF         C majorC
Maybe I'll be different, next year
