Capo 3
CDF7CG
So save all of your light
AmEm
For those who can't sleep at night
FCG
And who can't even sing to their shadows
CG
Oh they ride into town
AmEm
And they throw the shots down
FCG
And they save the last round for the windows
FCGF
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart, with an empty heart
FCG
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart
I'm inside with my friends
We build fires and pretend
That the night could just bend on forever
While outside in the frost
Are the wolves and the lost
And we sing to the dogs or whoever
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
With an empty heart
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart
There's a friend that I have
And for her I'll go back
You see all of these empties that I'm holding
They're too much for a man
Empty arms, empty hands
And she'll know me by the sound of my hoping
(ending varies from the chorus, as follows)
CDm7F
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart, with an empty heart
CDm7F
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart
Repeat ending multiple times, and end on C
