[Verse]

Gm                  C
I can live with my old friend disappointment
       Am                              Dm
I can live with things not as they ought to be
Gm                  C
I can snatch a sorry crumb of comfort
         Am                           Dm
From the jaws of what might have been victory

[Bridge]

Bb                  C
I'll make do, like everyone
            Dm
I put my head down on the pillow when the day is done
Bb             C
I make do, don't we all?
            Bb                              C
We hope we're headed for a future and not headed for a fall

[Chorus]

C                          Dm
I don't know what this world's about
      Bb              F
But this will be our year
C                          Dm
I don't know why I'm singing out
    Bb                A
But this will be our year

[Verse]

Gm              C
Day by day, brick by brick we'll build it
       Am                       Dm
Make a life, make something to call our own
Gm                 C
Just enough to keep the wolf at bay
 Am                        Dm
Just enough so we don't feel so alone

[Bridge]

Bb                  C
I'll make do, like everyone
 Dm
What's the point regretting all the things you've done?
 Bb                   C
I make do, that's what it takes
  Bb                             C
You keep on keeping on and you learn from your mistakes

[Chorus]

C                        Dm
I don't know what this world's about
 Bb                   F
But this will be our year
 C                     Dm
I don't know why I'm singing out
 Bb                  F
But this will be our year
              Bb               F
Hold on now, this will be our year, come on now
 Bb               C
This will be our year

Hold on now, this will be our year
