[Intro]
C E7 F G
[Verse]
C We both got some hard-knocks we might have earned E Some folks go to school E7 F Others have to learn that most of life is wishing G Tryin' to get back to a memory of a memory
You never might've had
C
My heart's a locomotiveRuns on blackened coal
E And cigarettes and coffee E7 I could never roll my own F I'm borrowing matches from the padre
Hearing church bells toll
G Wondering what the hell's the difference G7 Between dying and getting old
[Chorus]
F That can't be right C What year is it this year tonight? G G7 If I die, I'll die of fright C That can't be right
[Verse]
C
That acid flashback reallyReally cracked my ice
E Do the right drug once E7 You'll get to do it twice F And now I'm crowin' about places
And things I've never been
G You know I'm never gonna whore it out G7 And take that gig again C I believe the light is cracklin'
Round the edge of anesthesia
E Lying on a table E7 With the whole world reachin' in ya F Hope to Jesus Buddha Bob
That they washed their hands
G G There's no class action package G7 To break all my shitty bands
[Chorus]
F That can't be right C What year is it this year tonight? G G7 If I die, I'll die of fright C That can't be right
[Instrumental]
C E7 F G G7
[Verse]
C
When I was youngerIt confused me
Now I think I get it
E My old man, he don't like pictures E7 'Specially if he's in 'em F Time is not a mirror
It's some distorted view
G Of the way you thought you was G7 And what you thought they thought of you C And all the trash that I tossed out
It weren't by no means good
E But just 'cause someone tells ya E7 Don't really mean you should F My friends would try to cheer me on
The best they knew to do
G G But there's no rescuing a diver G7 With two cinder blocks for shoes
[Chorus]
F That can't be right C What year is it this year tonight? G If I die, I'll die of fright C That can't be right
[Verse]
C
I'm still agog with mortal dogsAnd skills I don't possess
E I'm a practitioner of practice E7 I'm-a givin' it my best F I'm left and I'm still leaving
I got several miles to go
G G I ain't ready to do something G7 'Till there's something I'm ready for C There's a pillar in the desert
And it's all alit with flames
E It's been burning there for eons E7 It's the end of all the days F We owe apologies
And ass-whoopin's
It seems to even out
G G You can't never know you're happy G7 If you've never lived without
[Chorus]
F And that's alright C What year is it this year tonight? G G7 If I die, I'll die of fright C Mm mm, that can't be right
[Outro]
F That can't be right C What year is it this year tonight? G G7 Four white horses towards the light C F G C That can't be right
