Not sure that this is the right chords but it sounds ok when I play it.
Please see reference to chords at the bottom of the page

Verse:

I II III IV
There is a war in all the heads and there’s a war in mine as well
V IV I
And if I could explain it any better, I’m sure I would
I II III IV
We’re in a bus and it’s night, you opened up and so will I
V IV I
But though I’m good with words, I’ve never been good with words

Chorus (1):
But all I know is there’s something new this year
All I know is there’s something new real near

Verse:
I II III IV
There is a town that I live in and it’s a town that favors winners
V IV I
And when I win I think about when I’ll next lose
I II
I took a train that took me north
III IV V
And it’s the place where trees speak louder than the people
IV I
But if I have to pick that’s what I’ll choose
I VI VII IV
I walked along the river Ume, it chilled me out of my bones too
V IV I
But a cold wind is always better than a cold voice
I II III IV
I am not strong enough for win city, so I’ll stay in to play Sin
V IV I
Witty people without hearts have always had a lead on me

Chorus (2):
But all I know is there’s something new this year
All I know is there’s something new real near
All I know is there’s something new this year
I don’t know much, but there’s something new coming near

Vers:
I II III IV
I’ll walk into the shop where you work, it is a shop that kills you slowly
V IV I
There’ll be no blood but another shirt on a hanger will still behead you
I VI VII IV
I’ll lift your arm and you’ll lift mine, and in a Communist state of mind
V IV I
We’re not worth more than anyone else but surely not worth less

Winter’s been real long this year
I know, cause I’ve been there
Summer never seemed to come along
and when it did, it felt all wrong
You’ve been sitting on the sidewalks wondering what went wrong with your life
You’ve been walking to your bedside table and in the top drawer was a knife

Time to take your sweetheart by the hand and lead him to the Promised Land
The only place in North America not destroyed by the government

San Francisco! You’re going
San Francisco! We’re going
Don’t you know you’ll never ever want to turn back

I have news for you my friend:
I’m sticking by you until the end
Doctor’s ordering you the same prescription, see, that worked wonders for me
I sat by myself in bars, I was driven home in state-owned cars
I was filled with so much hate until I saw the Golden Gate

Until my sweetheart took me by the hand and led me to the Promised Land
The only place in North America not yet destroyed by the government

San Francisco! You’re going
San Francisco! We’re going
Don’t you know you’ll never ever want to turn back

And it’s time to pack your bags and call in sick and bring the toothbrush
Withdraw from that savings account what’s savings for, time doesn’t wait and
Hold the door, I’m coming, all that jazz
like an escape from Alcatraz

San Francisco! You’re going
San Francisco! We’re going
Don’t you know you’ll never ever want to turn back

Capo 1st fret

Bam bam bam… x 2

And suddenly, I don?t feel fat anymore
I dont count my blackheads as a hobby
I dont count the marks on the wall
And I dont sleep well at all

There is someone else right beside me
He kept every secret I told
He giggled his way straight through fall
And I dont sleep well at all

Bam bam bam… x 3
Bam bam bam…

I have seen too many movies
I have read too many books
Im the kind that sees sun and brings an umbrella
I have been to fortune tellers

He knows when Im happy and nods when I?m sad
And he puts out when I come home drunk
And suddenly I stand real tall
But I dont sleep well at all

And I know love will leave you all crooked
And I know he?ll start sleeping around
Or start listening to symphony rock
Or throw out the key and change the lock
But I dont sleep well at all

[–]intro

Hello

Do you remember me
I am your long lost pen pal
It must have been ten years ago we last wrote
I don?t really know what happened
I guess life came in the way
Let me know if you?re still alive
Let me know if you ever used that knife or not

---------

[Bb/D]

Hello

Yes I remember you
I?ve got a husband and two children now
I work as an accountant and make fairly good money
I still have your letters, you used a pink pen to write them
And you would comfort me
when my tears would stain the ink
And I would send you mix tapes with Kate Bush on

I have to admit I sometimes lied in those [Bb/D]letters
Tried to make life better than it was
I still wasn?t kissed at sixteen
And I still need a friend

---------

[Bb/D]

---------

There was this letter
I never told you this back then
But it would be fair to say it saved my life
I sat in the window
The only one left out from a party again
Pretty sure I didn?t have a single friend
Then I checked the mailbox

Dear long lost penpal
I was lying the whole time
I?m really a 46 years old man named Luke
I have three children
and a wife, she doesn?t care
And I hope you don?t resent me
And I hope you do not hate me
For trying to find my way back to what it?s like to be young

I have to admit I sometimes lied in those [Bb/D]letters
Tried to make life better than it was
I still wasn?t kissed at sixteen
And I still need a friend

---------

[verse 1]

I’ve been looking for you baby anywhere that i can find
And i’ve been searching for your sweet name ‘cause you never leave my mind.
I’ve been on the Altivista
I went twice on the yahoo
and everywhere i go

there’s always a clue

always something about you that may help me get my hands on you
like

It’s your birthday tomorrow
but your not getting anything, you know
it’s your birthday tomorrow
but i’m not supposed to know
not supposed to know.

[verse 2]

Hacked into the school computer
Changed all of your d’s to a’s.
Broke into the dentist’s office
Know you never needed braces.
Know you moved from another small town,
Know your never going away.
‘Cause soon you’ll fall in love
The fortuane lady said
and I know who will me the one to make your bed.

It’s your birthday tomorrow
but your not getting anything, you know
it’s your birthday tomorrow
but i’m not supposed to know
not supposed to know.

[Verse 3]

I was talking to your best friend
I checked out your highschool yearbook.
I was driving round your mum’s house
she makes great coffee you know
I spoke to your former girlfriend
so now i know what i got to expect
and yesterday you passed me by

i swear you nearly said “hi”

I could have died
I swear to God i started cryinging

It’s your birthday tomorrow
but your not getting anything, you know
it’s your birthday tomorrow
but i’m not supposed to know
not supposed to know.
But i’m not supposed to know
Not supposed to know.

[End on A]

Intro C F

You and me, let’s steal a car, let’s rob a bank, let’s travel far,
let’s wear these shirts my grandpa used to wear.
And then I will be happy, I swear.

I’ll point the gun, you’ll keep the engine running, I’ll be running to you.
You’ll be saying: darling our haircuts aside
we are just like Bonnie and Clyde.

I’ll probably feel bad for not taking the train but
you’ll say: it’s in the country, and it’s raining.

We’ll kick open a cabin in the forest, I’ll be scared like I am.
You’ll put a flashlight under your chin and say you’re Son of Sam.

And I’ll slowly pull you out of your Fred Segal
and high on the fact that we’re illegal
we’ll make sweet loving sweeter, like we do.
I’ll say: baby you’re a criminal, and you’ll say: so are you.

You and me, let’s steal a car. But first, before we go that far-
What’s your name? Don’t look so scared. Don’t tell me you weren’t thinking
exactly the same.

//Fritt Skne

Oh, I love you! I wish you got the flu
So I could take care of you
Like you take care of me

I’m such a Florence, a real Florence Nightingale
I’ll fluff your pillows, I’ll buy you a Spiderman comic and read you
‘til you fall asleep

Sleep on my shoulder! I won’t wake you even if
My back turns crooked and I have to walk with a limp for a week

I’ll make you soup and none of that kind that you get in a jar cause I
know you don’t like those

Oh, I love you! I wish you got the flu
You’re the cutest thing I’ve ever seenlike a teddy bear on heroin
Come, I’ll tuck you in tight and I’ll sing for you all night
All night

You can hold the remote, I won’t try to steal it
And the best cushion is yours and you can have your feet on me,
Even though I’m scared of feet and even though I had a hard day at work

Oh, I love you! I wish you got the flu
You can lay your weight on me and I’ll be your backbone
Lay your weight on me
You won’t have to worry
Cause I’ll be your backbone

Two brothers from the south of Sweden came to stay with me
One of them would have gotten my virginity
He didn’t know that back then, did he, didn’t know that back then

He went a bit rough on my poetry
Said there’s no chance in hell this will ever grow to be anything
He said
I mostly like Dylan myself
I said shocking
Well, he said something I didn’t understand
‘Cause he was from the south of Sweden, he spoke just like a Dane

You should have seen these brothers’ freckles all over their pale bodies
And when they spoke they made you feel sun broke through though it was fall
They made it obvious I was too young, not interesting at all

I always wanted to go to their hometown and knock on their door
And say something intersesting and revolting they’d never heard before
To make them change their minds after all this time
Look, there was some cool in me, you know
They probably still won’t think so

And I’m in Lund again and nothing’s fixed that ever was broken
And I’m in Lund again and I still don’t get things right
And I’m in Lund again, maybe they have grown up, maybe they are here
‘Cause there is a ray of sun in the hall tonight
There’s a ray of sun in the hall tonight
There’s a ray of sun in the hall tonight
There’s a ray of sun in the hall tonight

Could have supported us when we retire
Bought us a cottage near the countryside

You could have taught her to play hockey
I could have taught her the guitar
And her granddad could have shown her the way to the bar

Could have supported us when we retire
Bought us a cottage near the countryside

We would have made the neighbours jealous
We could have had barbecues at night
With our collected brain resources, she would have had an IQ of a 155

Could have supported us when we retire
Bought us a cottage near the countryside

She would have won the Nobel Prize, and
Thanked her mama for all the good advice
And we could have gone swimming
Near that cottage by the lake
And she’d never had to know what it’s like when your heart breaks

Could have supported us when we retire
Bought us a cottage near the countryside

Could have supported us when we retire
Bought us a cottage near the countryside

She could have married a Kennedy
She would have found the cure for HIV

I’m real sorry Anna, you never got to be
’Cause your daddy moved on and he left me

Could have supported us when we retired
Bought us a cottage near the countryside…
