Pretty easy song if you just play the chords. 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.
