Happy New Year

[Intro]
| A Amaj7 | A6 Amaj7 | A Amaj7 | A6 Amaj7 |

[Verse 1]
A            Bm7-5
 No more champagne
        A/C#                 C#m
And the fireworks are through
        D           A/C#
Here we are, me and you 
        Bm               E
Feeling lost and feeling blue
         A          Bm7-5
It's the end of the party
        A/C#             C#m
And the morning seems so grey
     D          A/C#
So unlike yesterday 
          Bm                E
Now's the time for us to say

[Chorus]
          A               Fdim
Happy new year, happy new year
          F#m         D                Bbdim
May we all   have a vision now and then
                            F#7       Bm    E
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
          A               Fdim
Happy new year, happy new year
          F#m
May we all   have our hopes,
D               Bbdim
 our will to try
                        F#7               Bm E
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
        Bm E
You and I 

[Verse 2]
A            Bm7-5
 Sometimes I see  
        A/C#                   C#m
How the brave new world arrives
      D          A/C#
And I see how it thrives
       Bm           E
In the ashes of our lives
       A             Bm7-5
Oh yes, man is a fool
       A/C#                C#m
And he thinks he'll be okay
            D            A/C#
Dragging on, feet of clay
         Bm        A
Never knowing he's astray
         Bm          E
Keeps on going anyway

[Chorus]
          A               Fdim
Happy new year, happy new year
          F#m         D                Bbdim
May we all   have a vision now and then
                            F#7       Bm    E
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
          A               Fdim
Happy new year, happy new year
          F#m
May we all   have our hopes,
D               Bbdim
 our will to try
                        F#7               Bm E
If we don't we might as well lay down and die

[Interlude]
Bm E    A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
You and I
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7

[Verse 3]
A           Bm7-5
Seems to me now  
         A/C#                C#m
That the dreams we had before
        D             A/C#
Are all dead, nothing more
        Bm                E
Than confetti on the floor
            A     Bm7-5
It's the end of a decade
    A/C#                 C#m
In another ten years time
        D              A/C#
Who can say what we'll find
          Bm           A
What lies waiting down the line
       Bm               E
In the end of eightynine

[Chorus]
          A               Fdim
Happy new year, happy new year
          F#m         D                Bbdim
May we all   have a vision now and then
                            F#7       Bm    E
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
          A               Fdim
Happy new year, happy new year
          F#m
May we all   have our hopes,
D               Bbdim
 our will to try
                        F#7               Bm E
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
Bm E    A Amaj7
You and I
