Intro:
Amaj7-F#m-Bm-E x2
Verse 1:
[Amaj7]It's New Year's[F#m] Eve
[Bm]and California's[E] gonna kill you soon
[Amaj7]The Barstow boys[F#m] -
[Bm]Bug eyes in the shad[E]ow of the moon
[Amaj7]Black houses in the hills and roadside [F#m]haunts,
[Bm]dying for a place to fall [E]apart
[Amaj7]Who knew what you could learn t[F#m]o live without,
M[Bm]other Mary's lying in your m[E]outh, now
Back [C#m]home the kitchen's [F#m]warm with Christmas [Bm]wine
And every girl has [Amaj7]got an axe to grind[C#m]
You [F#m]left to look for h[G]eaven
But you're [F#m]far from the he[Bmaj7]art light [E]tonight
[Amaj7]So quietly we lost another [F#m]year -
[Bm]the desert put a babbler i[E]n your ear
[Amaj7]He will find a way to not [F#m]miss you again,
[Bm]Barstow boys all spit into the [E]wind
B[C#m]ack home the hammer[F#m] always has to fall,[Bm]
Cross is bare[Amaj7]ly hanging on the wall[C#m]
Some[F#m] day I know you'll[G] never leave me
but w[F#m]e're far from t[Bmaj7]he hard li[E]ght tonight
[Amaj7-F#m-Bmaj7-E]
