If you don't want to play the inversion chords, the regular chords should sound fine too.

Verse 1

I should shut my mouth when I'm not addressed

I should go to bed lonely unless

It's next to you

 'Cause no one else will do this year

I should turn the voices in my head down

I should take the subway into downtown

More often than I do

 To send myself to you this year

Chorus

 So why can't we go from the start

 To show them how different we are

 So why can't we go from the start this year?

Verse 2

(Same as Verse 1)

I'm not the kind of guy who throws himself at

The first pretty shape that crosses his path

But if you were to

I'd amend that for you this year

The change of weather has come just in time

To erase all of the remnants of the battle or lines

That we keep reliving instead of forgiving my dear

Chorus

 So why can't we go from the start

 To show them how different we are

 So why can't we go from the start this year?

Verse 3

 And do you feel like a float

 In the Macy's Day Parade

 While everyone that you know

 Shields their eyes and looks away

 Well give yourself a reason

 To start a brand new season

 Well it's time we got a new start

 To show them how different we are

 So why can't we go from the start this year?
