SONG: This Year
ARTIST: Bowerbirds
TAB BY: dr_pointsman ([email protected])
CAPO: 6th FRET
Intro: Am G C
Am G C
Just come down from a high fever,
G6 G
from out there in the yard
Bm D G C
While the pyre is burning, it's hard to feel the weather shift
Em Bm
or the fear of the dark
Em Am
Ahhh
Chorus:
C G Am
This year we need a deeper frost
G C
Me and my meadowlark
G Am
Under the winter's fears
G C
Out where the tree line starts
G B
Down on the north slope
E F
Down to the creek
Em C
Hold tight til spring
Interlude: C G C Bm D G C Em D
G C
On and on goes the long winter
G6 G
My eyes now fixed to the stars
Bm D G C
We've been there before and I'm fairly sure we'll find a clearing
Em Bm
in the forest of our hearts
Em Am
Ahhh
[Chorus]
C G Am
This year we need a deeper frost
G C
Me and my meadowlark
G Am
Under the winter's fears
G C
Out where the tree line starts
G B
Down on the north slope
E F
Down to the creek
Em C
Hold tight til spring
C G Am
But you know I'm not an activist,
G C
not in the purest sense
G Am
I'm not a pacifist
G C
I know which rules to bend
D Em
I just reveal my name
F Em
and show my love
D D G C
out in the hallows Oooooooooh
[Chorus]
C G Am
This year we need a deeper frost
G C
Me and my meadowlark
G Am
Under the winter's fears
G C
Out where the tree line starts
G B
Down on the north slope
E F
Down to the creek
Em C
Hold tight til spring
