x[Intro]
E A
[Verse 1]
E
When I look back on what I done
A
'Bout a hundred years from now
C#m
Gonna cry myself to sleep at night
B E
somebody shows me how uh huh
E
When the sun shines down on what's left of me
A
'Bout a hundred years from now
C#m
Gonna cut my water with a rebel yell
B B7
and claw my way back to town
[Chorus]
A Am
One hundred years, one hundred years
E Ab
They’ll break me, but I’ll break them toooooooooooooo
C#m E
Oh and this here’s for the brakemen,
A Am E
and this one is for you
[Verse 2]
E
When the sky cracks open and the thunder comes
A
'Bout a hundred years from now
C#m
Gonna bury this old yoke and chain
B
In the cold wet ground
E
And when I get off at Tennybrook farm
A
'Bout a hundred years from now
C#m
I’m gonna marry you out of common sense
B B6 B7
And get out from behind this plow
[Vocal breakdown]

They’ll break me, but I’ll break them toooooooooooooo

One hundred years, one hundred years

A Am E
and this one is for you
