Capo 1

In the verses, I like to do a D to D/F# to G walkup but it isn't necessary – 
I just think it sounds a lot better.


Intro Chords: D  G  D  G


               D   D/F#  G                   D 
It's New Years day,      just like the day before
                D    D/F#  G                         A
Same old sky of gray       same empty bottles on the floor
                  Bm G                     D    A
Another year gone by and I'm thinkin once again
          D                A                 G 
How can I take this losin' hand, and somehow win


Chorus 1:
                      D     G
Just give me one good year
                    D
To get my feet back on the ground
          D      D/C#       Bm                    A      G
I've been chasin grace, but grace ain't so easily found
G                D
One bad hand can devil a man
G                       D
Chase him and carry him down
  G                A                           D      G
I gotta get out of here, just give me one good year 


I'm burnin oil, engines runnin rough
I drive from job to job but it's never enough
I cant find the will to just up and get away
Some kind of chain's holdin' me down and makes me stay


Chorus


Bridge
             G     A
Its a bitter wind
                  Bm 
In your face everyday
               F#m
Its the little sins
                     D 
That wear your soul away
                     G    A
When you start givin in
                          Bm
Where do the promises all go
          F#m                                      A
Will your darkest hour write a blank check on your soul


Solo


Chorus 2:
                      D     G 
Just give me one good year
                    D
To get my feet back on the ground
          D       D/C#      Bm                    A     G
I've been chasin' grace but grace ain't so easily found
G                D
One bad hand can devil a man
  G                      D
A good one can turn him around
  G                A
I gotta get out of here
                      Bm    A
Just give me one good year
  G                A                           D     G    D    G
I gotta get out of here, just give me one good year
