Last year, I drank a lot
I drank 'til I fell [Asus]down
[E]Last year, I smoked a lot
'Til my lungs turned b[Asus]rown
[F#]Last year, I crawled in circles
This year, I'm climbing up [Asus]clouds, [B]clouds
[C#]I don't know [Asus]where I went [B]wrong
[C#]I was lost, now I'm [Asus]found, now you're [B]gone, [Asus]gone
[E]'Cause I'm not a saint but I can paint myself into a better [B]picture
[C#]One day, you'll see me in a big, golden frame and it'll [Asus]hit you
[E]Last year, I promised myself I'd stop writing songs about [Asus]girls
But you're a woman
[E]Last year, I let you down
And I know I should have been [Asus]around instead of drinking in town
[F#]Last year, I was a little boy
Now I feel like a young [Asus]man, so many [B]plans
[C#]I don't know [Asus]where I went [B]wrong
[C#]I was lost, now I'm [Asus]found, now you're [B]gone, [Asus]gone
Two, three, four
[E]'Cause I'm not a saint but I can paint myself into a better [B]picture
[C#]One day, you'll see me in a big, golden frame and it'll [Asus]hit you
[E]So let's call it even, we've got something to believe in and you [B]know this

You know this is true
I'm talking to you so don't cut me [C#]out
I know you've got [Asus]doubts but don't be too hasty and waste me like I'm wasting myself
I'm sorry for last [E]year
[C/G]I understand you and I [D]read you like a book
And I know why you [E]think that you've got to do this
[C/G]You think these are all just empty [D]words made pretty with my guitar
[E]Thinking that there's no way that I could ever prove this
[C/G]You're holding on to the [D]past but it won't last
'Cause I [C#]know that I can make you [Asus]laugh and smile
[E]And I know that I can make all this pain worthwhile
[C#]We'll take it slow but if you want [Asus]to move fast, I'm at your pace
[F#]And I know this sounds crazy but yo[Asus]u know you amaze me
I'll [C/G]never be lazy [D]unless it's to be lazy with you
[C#]I don't know [Asus]where I went [B]wrong
[C#]I was [Asus]lost, now I'm [B]found, now you're gone, [Asus]gone
[E]'Cause I'm not a saint but I can paint myself into a better [B]picture

Guess I'll see you [Asus]around
You don't know how much I'm going to [C#]prove myself to you
[B]With or without[E]
