VERSE 1:
E6sus2sus4 G D
You can't live without hope that things will change for the better
You can't Emlive without the dream of someone Greading your Bmletter
E6sus2sus4 G D
We've had dust storms before and spit out the dirt
We've Emhad droughts before, but Gnone quite like Bmthis
E6sus2sus4 G D
We've had winds that cut up your face all to pieces
Black Emblizzards that stripped all the Gpaint off your Bmcar
E6sus2sus4 G D
Fires like twisters, no sisters of mercy
They Emcome with no warning, Gonly that Bmsound
EmGod is roaring drunk and Gout on the Bmtown
CHORUS:
DNext year, Geverything will come Dgood
The Emrains they will fall and will Gdance on the Bmhood
We'll Dfill up our bellies with Gplentiful Dfood
We'll Emeat, drink, and be Gmerry
Yeah, Dnext year people Em7/Bwait and see
We're Gnext year people, Bmyou and me
VERSE 2:
E6sus2sus4 G D
Henry got hit by lightening twice in head
He sEmtood and walked away, we Gthought he was Bmdead
E6sus2sus4 G D
Now he talks funny, says he's wired to the sky
He Emwalks for miles and miles, and Gno one knows Bmwhy
E6sus2sus4 G D
The bank men, they came and wrote things down on paper
We Emall went outside and Gjust stood arounBmd
E6sus2sus4 G D
We were glad when they left, they brought nothing but heartache
And Emthe seed we had planted, it Gstayed in the Bmground
CHORUS:
DNext year, Geverything will come Dgood
The Emrains they will fall and will Gdance on the Bmhood
We'll Dfill up our bellies with Gplentiful Dfood
We'll Emeat, drink, and be Gmerry
Yeah, Dnext year people Em7/Bwait and see
We're Gnext year people, Bmyou and me
VERSE 3:
E6sus2sus4 G D
Dry endless plains, and we've suffered the worst
EmAre we being punished or Gare we just Bmcursed?
E6sus2sus4 G D
It's almost ten years, and no drop of rain
EmOnly mocking blue skies bringing Gmore of the Bmsame
E6sus2sus4 G D
Our mother was crying when they sent us to stay
With Emstrangers in a town and we Gboth ran Bmaway
E6sus2sus4 G D
Back to the dust and see Henry again
EmWe're creatures of habit, don't you Gknow
EmOne day we'll rGeap what we Bmsow.
CHORUS (Scott Aukerman, Paul F. Tompkins, and Gillian Jacobs sing background):
DNext year, Geverything will come Dgood
The Emrains they will fall and will Gdance on the Bmhood
We'll Dfill up our bellies with Gplentiful Dfood
We'll Emeat, drink, and be Gmerry
Yeah, Dnext year people Em7/Bwait and see
We're Gnext year people, Bmyou and me
Enjoy!
