Verse:
A6add9 G D/F# You can't live without hope that things will change for the better Em7/B G Bmadd11 You can't live without the dream of someone reading your letter A6add9 G D/F# We've had dust storms before and spit out the dirt Em7/B G Bmadd11 We've had droughts before, but none quite like this A6add9 G D/F# We've had winds that cut up your face all to pieces Em7/B G Bmadd11 Black blizzards that stripped all the paint off your car A6add9 G D/F# Fires like twisters, no sisters of mercy Em7/B G Bmadd11 They come with no warning, only that sound Em G Bmadd11 F#9 A9 God is roaring drunk and out on the town
Chorus:
D G D Next year, everything will come good Em7/B G Bmadd11 The rains they will fall and will dance on the hood D G D We'll fill up our bellies with plentiful food Em7/B G We'll eat, drink, and be merry D Em7/B Yeah, next year people wait and see G Bmadd11 F#9 A9 Bmadd11 We're next year people, you and me
Verse:
A6add9 G D/F# Henry got hit by lightening twice in head Em7/B G Bmadd11 He stood and walked away, we thought he was dead A6add9 G D/F# Now he talks funny, says he's wired to the sky Em7/B G Bmadd11 He walks for miles and miles, and no one knows why A6add9 G D/F# The bank men, they came and wrote things down on paper Em7/B G Bmadd11 We all went outside and just stood around A6add9 G D/F# We were glad when they left, they brought nothing but heartache Em G Bmadd11 F#9 A9 And the seed we had planted, it stayed in the ground
Chorus:
D G D Next year, everything will come good Em7/B G Bmadd11 The rains they will fall and will dance on the hood D G D We'll fill up our bellies with plentiful food Em7/B G We'll eat, drink, and be merry D Em7/B Yeah, next year people wait and see G Bmadd11 F#9 A9 Bmadd11 We're next year people, you and me
Verse:
A6add9 G D/F# Dry endless plains, and we've suffered the worst Em7/B G Bmadd11 Are we being punished or are we just cursed? A6add9 G D/F# It's almost ten years, and no drop of rain Em7/B G Bmadd11 Only mocking blue skies bringing more of the same A6add9 G D/F# Our mother was crying when they sent us to stay Em7/B G Bmadd11 With strangers in a town and we both ran away A6add9 G D/F# Back to the dust and see Henry again Em7/B G We're creatures of habit, don't you know Em G Bmadd11 F#9 A9 One day we'll reap what we sow.
Chorus:
D G D Next year, everything will come good Em7/B G Bmadd11 The rains they will fall and will dance on the hood D G D We'll fill up our bellies with plentiful food Em7/B G We'll eat, drink, and be merry D Em7/B Yeah, next year people wait and see G Bmadd11 We're next year people, you and me D Em7/B Yeah, next year people wait and see G Bmadd11 F#9 A9 Bmadd11 We're next year people, you and me
