New Year's Song by Josh Pyke
New Year's Song
TUNING: Capo 2nd (for Bottom 5 Strings only)
NOTES: So, I think that there must have been another guitar or the bass
note is dropped to a C# or something, but I worked out that it is relativly
easy to play if you can put the capo on the 2nd fret for every string
except the bass E string. I'm sure you'll work it out. Also, 020 is
actually 0h2p0 but the typing doesn't fit with the timing.

If you’re freezing on your left side
And you’re boiling on your right side
Then I guess you might be warm upon the line
There are many ways one can divide a life
And I’ve got mine
I was flying home and I
Saw the sunset from the sky
I saw the dark come spinning down upon the land
And I thought about the distance we all cover
And it made me sad
And as the old year took a bow
And joined the setting sun
It comes around again
Like a refrain
And we all sing along
And think of things we should’ve done
Till one year when the new year never came
Little comfort, little comfort
I’m afraid you’re not enough
I’ve had some learning both unwelcome and unkind
And it seems there’s but one story told
And then re-worked all throughout time
Are you a good one or a cruel one?
It is just the laws that make us bad?
What can we do to measure where we stand?
Well I judge myself by what I give to someone else
So I’ll know where I am
Don’t let that sense of urgency betray you in the dark
The rustle of a curtain’s not a sign
Don’t frame this picture now
As some kind of closing remark
And most of all stay warm upon the line
Most of all stay warm upon the line
It’s best if you stay warm upon the line
