This Year S Love
(capo 1st fret)
Intro: C D C D C D G Em
C D C
This years love had better last
D C
Heaven knows it\'s high time
D G Em
And I\'ve been waiting on my own too long
C D C
But when you hold me like you do
D
It feels so right
C D
I start to forget
G
How my heart gets torn
Em
When that hurt gets thrown
A C
Feeling like you can\'t go on
C D C
Turning circles when time again
D
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
C D G Em
If you love me got to know for sure
C D C
Cos it takes something more this time
D
Than sweet sweet lies
C D G
Before I open up my arms and fall
Em
Losing all control
A C
Every dream inside my soul
And when you kiss me
G
On that midnight street
Em
Sweep me off my feet
A C
Singing ain\'t this life so sweet
C D C D C D G Em
This years love had better last
C D C D
This years love had better last
C D
\'Cause who\'s to worry
G
If our hearts get torn
Em
When that hurt gets thrown
A C
Don\'t you know this life goes on
And won\'t you kiss me
G
On that midnight street
Em
Sweep me off my feet
A C
Singing ain\'t this life so sweet
C D C D
This years love had better last
C D C D
This years love had better last
C D C D
This years love had better last
C G
This years love had better last

version 3
(capo 1st fret)
Cadd9 - X32033
Em7 - 020033
D - X00232
A7Sus4 - x02233
Listen to the song to get an idea of how the chord change is...
for the main chord progressionits two strums of Cadd9, the second one quickly followed
Em7 which changes slightly less quickly to D, then back in the same fasion
like this
3---33--2---23-|
3---33--3---33-|
0---00--2---20-|
2---20--0---00-|
3---32--0---02-|
-----0-------0-|
this is repeated three times, then it goes to G, then Em7, followed quickly by Cadd9 and
again in the same fasion
3---3-33--3-|
3---3-33--3-|
0---0-00--0-|
0---0-20--0-|
2---2-32--2-|
3---------3-|
after this it returns to the first chord riff
When it gets to
"How my heart gets torn"
on "Heart" - it becomes rums of the chord, so for "Heart gets Torn, When That" its just
of G, then the same for "Hurt gets thrown, Feeling", then its three strums of Asus7, to
then back to Cadd9... then theres a short break in the music untill the next verse
(about two or three bars)
"Like you Can't go on" goes as follows
3--3333-|
3--3333-|
2--2200-|
2--2202-|
0--0023-|
-----0--|
(let the last chord ring)
then back to the start
happy playing people

(this is the part where hes like "how my hear-gets-torn when that hurt-gets-thrown..."
i guess ud call it a breakdown? i guess. anyway this is that part, where it slows down.)

again, listen to the song, at 1:36 it starts the same breakdown but tacks an extra
