This Is Gonna Be A Long Year Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Something's started
and something's ended
It's [G]the hearts that break if left unattended
I [D]am not so easily offended
If it's [G]broken then I guess
it can't be mended
It's [D]the wives that aim between the eyes
And then shoot to [G]kill
a wolf that cries again
[D]But I'm okay with second
prize [G]this time

[Verse 2]
These are the days when [D]the noise
is hard to hear
[G]These are the days when
it [D]all can disappear
[G]And you know babe,
it is the [D]only thing that's clear
This is [Em]gonna [A]be a long year

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
[D]God knows it's not
the only place to keep it
Hell, it's better than sitting around
[G]listening to someone tell us
[D]That Jesus died but you know that Elvis
Is alive and well and living in [G]a cheap hotel
It's [D]the love that's lost
and the fingers crossed
You know that nothing comes
without [G]a cost
But God [D]it's hard to turn it off this [G]time
These are the days [A]when the noise

[Verse 4]
[D]
is hard to hear
[G]These are the days when
it [D]all can disappear
[G]And you know babe,
it is the [D]only thing that's clear
This is [Em]gonna [A]be a long
[D]year

[Interlude 2]
[G][D]
[G][D]
[G]It's

[Verse 5]
[D]the chump who says
he'll always make it
It's the wounded who can says,
no, he can take [G]it
But am [D]I smart enough to not mistake it
For the undermined that are overrated
It's the best of luck if
you come unstuck
But you better be sure [Dsus4]you
wanna give it up
'Cause [D]nobody here really
gives a fuck this [Dsus4]time[D]

[Verse 6]
[G]These are the days when
[D]the noise is hard to hear
[G]These are the days when it all[D]
can [G]disappear
And you know babe,
it [A]is the [D]only thing that's clear
This is [Em]gonna be
[A]Yeah, this is [Em]gonna [A]be
[D]a long [G]yea[D]r
[G]

[Verse 7]
This [D]is gonna be a long year baby
For the hearts and souls with the
holes and maybe
We can take a breath and we can
wish them well
While we wait here for that
mission bell
To bring and sing it out with open ears
And you can wash [G]your
skin with all the tears
[Bm]And [D]scream hallelujah till
it's all you hear
'Cause it's gonna be a long, [Bm]long [D]year
Long, long year
Long, long [A]year[D]
Long, long year
Long, long [Em]year
Long, long [D]year[G]
Long, long [D]year
[Em][D][G]

[Verse 8]
[D]
[Em]Oh, oh, this [D]is gonna be a long
This is [G]gonna be a long, long [D]year
Long, long year
[Em]Long, long year
Long, [D]long year
Long, long, [G]long, [D]long,

[Outro 1]
