E5
 After a year like this one
     D5
I'm surprised I did not hate your guts
   E5
And  after a year like this one 
     D5
I'm surprised I still love music just as much 
E5
 After a year like this one
     D5
I'm suprised I did not eat my arm 
E5
 After a year like this one 
     D5
I'm sorry if I'm not cordial to everyone

 After a year like this one
     D5
I'm surprised I am convinced at all 
   E5
And  after a year like this one 
     D5
I do not roll my eyes at the cynical 
E5
 After a year like this one ´
        D5
I can't help but wonder how they've been

I think I'll leave it all to my next of kin

 After a year like this one

I'm suprised we're all not weeping drunks 
   E5
And  after a year like this one

I want you to choose the restaurant 
   E5
And  after a year like this one 
      D5
I'll need a good whole sixteen months alone

I think I'll make the west coast beaches my new home.
