The guitarist John adds a little riff to this chord (you should watch the video I link
up top). It's played quickly right after the chord.

VERSE 1

[A]I broke fr[E]ee on a Saturday morn[D]ing, I put the pedal[A] too the floor
Headed no[A]rth on Mills Av[E]enue and listened[D] to the engine roa[A]r

A C#m D * A *
[A]     [E]      [D]     [A]                     
My broken house be[A]hind me and good things [E]ahead,
a girl named Ca[D]thy wants a little of my t[A]ime

Six cylinders und[A]erneath the hood crashing[E] and kicking
aha! li[D]sten to the engine w[A]hine

CHORUS
I am going to m[A]ake it through this ye[E]ar if it kill[D]s me    [A]
I am going to m[A]ake it though this yea[E]r if it kill[D]s me      [A]

VERSE 2

I played video games in a drunken haze,
I was seventeen years young
Hurt my knuckles punching the machines
the taste of scotch rich on my tongue

And then Cathy showed up and we hung out
trading swigs from a bottle all bitter and clean
locking eyes holding hands
twin high maintenance machines

CHORUS

BRIDGE
[F#m]I drove home in the California du[A]sk,
[D]I could feel the alcohol inside of me h[A]um
[F#m]Pictured the look on my stepfather's f[A]ace,
[D]ready for the bad things to [E]come.

VERSE 3
I down shifted as I pulled into the driveway,
the motor screaming out stuck in second gear
The scene ends badly as you might imagine
in a cavalcade of anger and fear

VERSE 3 CONT'D (this varies from the other verses)

A C#m D * E *
There will be feasting and dancing in Jerusalem next year


CHORUS

OUTRO
