Intro verse:
DFBb9A9 Seems I'm always making resolutions,
DCdimA7sus4A7 Like ev'ry night for me is New Year's Eve.
DFA9AD9-5 Things they chisel on those institutions,
EBm7-5 B7E The lofty thoughts I never quite achieve;
EmA9A+9 DM7D6 Each time I'm taking bows 'cause things went well,
BmBm+7 Bm7E9Em9Am7A7 Things go awry, and there am I saying, "I meant well."
