Verse 1:
Gsus          G
Got a feeling '21
                 Gsus4     G
Is going to be a good year
  Gsus4              G
Especially if you and me
             Gsus4     G
See it in together

Is going to be a good year?

It could be good for me and her but you and her,
    Eb      Eb/D
No, never!

I could brave bad weather

You won't say nothing to no one
E
Never in your life
          Am
You never heard it
       C                    Bb       F
How absurd it all seems without any proof
           F
You didn't hear it
           D7
You didn't see it
          G
You never heard it
      E
Not a word of it!
              Am
You won't say nothing to no one

Never tell a soul, what you know is the truth

See it in together
