This should be a good jumping-off point if you want to go all the way and figure out the picking pattern. I'm surprised this song hadn't been done already. Oh well. A great tune by a band we didn't get to hear enough of :( Intro: G (hold until Ooh-oh, you can hear it change) Am (G D Em 2x) G D Up from the basement to my best friend's farm Em Where we'll work so hard, we can do no harm G D We'll till the land and duck our debts Em Underneath soft sun, chewing Nicorette G D Em G This will be a better year D Em This will be a better year G D Make a little money, take a lot of shit Em Feel real bad, then get over it G D Em This will be a better year C Oh I keep pushing boulders G I stay game till sun'll shake my shoulders C Oh, I keep feeling older G I stay game, stay game, stay game G D The East Coast kids, man, we just don't know Em Singing wait, wait, stop, drop me, go, go, go G D But I'm taken by the hand to a blue pay phone Em We can break blue laws with our skin and bones G D And now I'm back in the city, I'm counting frick frick frick Em Heard of milk great things, speaking soft and thick G D He said, "If life gives you lemons, then thus god bade. Em So put a little bit of bitter in your pink lemonade" C Cmaj7 I'm sick of thee sheep, I'm sick of thou shepherd G Sick of dressing like a human when I'm feeling like a leopard C Cmaj7 I'm sick of slow rock, I'm sick of quick quips G C Sick of holding on to nothing when I just want to hold your hips G D Em G This will be a better year D Em This will be a better year G D Make a little money, take a lot of shit Em Feel real bad, then get over it G D Em This will be a better year C Oh I keep pushing boulders G I stay game till sun'll shake my shoulders C Oh, I keep feeling older G Am I stay game, stay game, stay game Then the nah-nahh part uses the C, Cmaj7, G pattern - you can work it out easily if you listen to the song.
