Intro: Badd9 | Bmaj9
       B6add9 | Bmaj9  } 2 times

B           C#m7
No more champagne
        B/Eb          Ebm
And the fireworks are through.
        E           B/Eb
Here we are, me and you,
        C#m7             F#sus4
Feeling lost and feeling blue.
         B          Em6/C#
It’s the end of the party,
        B/Eb             Ebm
And the morning seems so grey,
     E          B/Eb
So unlike yesterday,
          C#m7           F#sus4 F#
Now’s the time for us to say:

Chorus:
               B
     Happy New Year!
               Eb7/G
     Happy New Year!
                G#m
     May we all have
       E              G#7
     A vision now and then
     Of a world
                           G#7/C  C#m   F#
     Where every neighbour is a friend.
               B
     Happy New Year!
               Eb7/G
     Happy New Year!
                G#m
     May we all have
         E                  G#7
     Our hopes, our will to try:
     If we don’t
                          G#7/C    C#m  F#
     We might as well lay down and die,
             C#m F#
     You and I.

Sometimes I see
How the brave new world arrives,
And I see how it thrives
In the ashes of our lives.
Oh yes, man is a fool,
And he thinks he’ll be okay,
Dragging on, feet of clay,
      E              B
Never knowing he’s astray,
         C#m7     F#sus4 F#
Keeps on going anyway:

Chorus:
     Happy New Year!
     Happy New Year!
     May we all have
     A vision now and then
     Of a world
     Where every neighbour is a friend.
     Happy New Year!
     Happy New Year!
     May we all have
     Our hopes, our will to try:
     If we don’t
     We might as well lay down and die,
     C#m F#  Badd9
     You and I.

Seems to me now
That the dreams we had before
Are all dead, nothing more
Than confetti on the floor.
It’s the end of a decade,
In another ten years time
Who can say what we’ll find,
          E                B
What lies waiting down the line
       C#m7          F#sus4 F#
In the end of eighty-nine:

Chorus:
     Happy New Year!
     Happy New Year!
     May we all have
     A vision now and then
     Of a world
     Where every neighbour is a friend.
     Happy New Year!
     Happy New Year!
     May we all have
     Our hopes, our will to try:
     If we don’t
     We might as well lay down and die,
     C#m F#  Badd9
     You and I.
