        Intro

        Guitar 1:  G - G7 - C9 - C9*  4x
        Guitar 2:  Fill #1

        Verse 1

        G                   C9
        Allison sits by the window and wonders,
        G                    C9
        Exactly when he will return.
           G                        C9
        He left in November she can hardly remember,
           G                      C9
        He said he'd be back real soon.
                G
        Its now June.

        Verse 2
        And Allison wonders if her three children,
        Will ever see their father again.
        The early morning gas put the wind in his sails,
        As he left them for the sea once again.
        He is now gone.  Maybe for long.

        Pre-Chorus #1

        D11                 C/G
        Now every night she sits on the rooftop,
        D11                        C/G
        Hoping his ship she'll see clear.
            D11                         C/G
        She remembers his whisper as he knelt down to kiss her,
                       D
        He'd said "You know I'll be back next year".


        Chorus

        G       C9
        I'll be back,
        G       C9
        I'll be back.
        G		C9
        Back next year,
        G		C9
        Back next year.

        Verse 3
        Allison and her son and women they gather
        In their sea sprayed singled homes.
        They try not speak of the man they're missing,
        Together but they're still alone.

        Pre-Chorus #2
        And Allison trys hard to contain her feelings
        But they see her crying she fears.
        They put their arms life and heard heart saying
        "You know he'll be Back Next Year."

        Chorus

        Verse 4
        After seven months of sailing has left her to wonder
        If the sea has taken her man.
        Through all of the waiting the pain's not abating.
        It's something she can no longer stand.

        Pre-Chorus #3
        She turns from the horizon to put down the children
        Whiping the last of her tears.
        He's standing their with his children all around him he says
        "I told you I'd be back This Year."
