G           C
No more champagne
        G             B7
And the fireworks are through
        C           G
Here we are, me and you
        C                D
Feeling lost and feeling blue
         G          C
It's the end of the party
        G                B7
And the morning seems so grey
     C          G
So unlike yesterday
          C              D   D7
Now's the time for us to say...
          G
Happy new year
          B7
Happy new year
           Em     C              E
May we all have a vision now and then
     E7          E              E7   Am     D7
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
          G
Happy new year
          B7
Happy new year
           Em       C                  E
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
      E7       E                 E7       Am  D
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
        Am D  D7
You and I
G           C
Sometimes I see
        G                 B7
How the brave new world arrives
      C          G
And I see how it thrives
       C            D
In the ashes of our lives
   G             C
Oh yes, man is a fool
       G                B7
And he thinks he'll be okay
         C           G
Dragging on, feet of clay
      C              G
Never knowing he's a stray
         C        D   D7
Keeps on going anyway...
          G
Happy new year
          B7
Happy new year
           Em     C              E
May we all have a vision now and then
     E7          E              E7   Am     D7
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
          G
Happy new year
          B7
Happy new year
           Em       C                  E
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
      E7       E                 E7       Am  D
If we don't we might as well lay down and die

G           C
Seems to me now
         G               B7
That the dreams we had before
        C             G
Are all dead, nothing more
        C            D
Than confetti on the floor
         G        C
It's the end of a decade
    G                B7
In another ten years time
        C              G
Who can say what we'll find?
          C                G
What lies waiting down the line
       C             D   D7
In the end of eighty-nine...
          G
Happy new year
          B7
Happy new year
           Em     C              E
May we all have a vision now and then

Of a world where every neighbor is a friend

Happy new year
          B7
Happy new year
           Em       C                  E
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
      E7       E                 E7       Am  D
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
Am   C    G
