Capo 1
In the verses, I like to do a [D] to [D/F#] to [G] walkup but it isn t necessary â
I just think it sounds a lot better.
Intro Chords:
It s New Years day, just like the day before
Same old sky of gray same empty bottles on the floor
Another year gone by and I m thinkin once again
How can I take this losin hand, and somehow win
[Chorus 1]
Just give me one good year
To get my feet back on the ground
I ve been chasin grace, but grace ain t so easily found
One bad hand can devil a man
Chase him and carry him down
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 2]
Just give me one good year
To get my feet back on the ground
I ve been chasin grace, but grace ain t so easily found
One bad hand can devil a man
Chase him and carry him down
I gotta get out of here, just give me one good year
[Bridge]
Its a bitter wind
In your face everyday
Its the little sins
That wear your soul away
When you start givin in
Where do the promises all go
Will your darkest hour write a blank check on your soul
[Solo]
[Chorus 3]
Just give me one good year
To get my feet back on the ground
I ve been chasin grace but grace ain t so easily found
One bad hand can devil a man
A good one can turn him around
I gotta get out of here
Just give me one good year
I gotta get out of here, just give me one good year
