This Time Last Year

E 
  This time, last year, right around the holidays 
          A 
There were messes in my mind 
     
I was learnin' all the harder ways 
 E 
Livin' it down, and drinkin' a lot 

But hittin' the town didn't hit the spot 
                  A 
But, oh, how the tides change, in 3-65 days 

E 
  I gave hell a piece of my mind 

It gave me a hit to my pride 
   A 
But I came out on the other side 
     
The devil said, "Hi" 
  
But baby, baby, look at me now 
E 
  I lost a couple good friends 

Untied a couple loose ends 
    A 
It's all part of sheddin' old skin 
       
And startin' again 
                               E 
But baby, baby, look at me now 
                               A 
But baby, baby, look at me now 
     
It's kind of got me thinkin' 'bout 

E 
  This time, last year, the heartbreak was undeniable 
A 
  But day by day, I became unrecognizable 
 E 
Makin' my rounds, shootin' my shot 
   
Standin' my ground, pissin' people off 
             A 
Oh, how the ride's changed in 3-65 days 
A 
Mm 

E 
 I gave hell a piece of my mind 

It gave me a hit to my pride 
   A 
But I came out on the other side 

The devil said, "Hi" 
   
But baby, baby, look at me now 
E 
  I lost a couple good friends 

Untied a couple loose ends 
    A 
It's all part of sheddin' old skin 
    
And startin' again 
                               E 
But baby, baby, look at me now 

C#m7                         B4 
People thinkin' that I've changed 
                    A2 
They used to be my biggest fear, my biggest fear  

(This time last year) 
C#m7                       B4 
But thank God that I've changed  

(Thank God that I've changed) 
       A2 
From this time, last year  

(This time, last year) 
       
'Cause this time, last year  

('Cause this time) 

E 
  I gave hell a piece of my mind 

It gave me a hit to my pride 
   A 
But I came out on the other side 

The devil said, "Hi" 
    
But baby, baby, look at me now 
E 
 I lost a couple good friends 

Untied a couple loose ends 
    A 
It's all part of sheddin' old skin 
     
And startin' again 
                               E 
And baby, baby, look at me now 

                     E 
This time, last year, mm, mm 
A 
  This time, last year 
                           E 
Baby, baby, look at me now   
  
(Baby, baby, look at me now) 
      A 
It's gonna be okay 
       
You'll live to see the day when you're gonna say 
            E 
Look at me now
