1. [C] No more cham- [F] pagne and the [C] fireworks are [E7] through
Here we [F] are, me and [C] you, feeling [F] lost and feeling [G] blue
It's the [C] end of the [F] party and the [C] morning seems so [E7] grey
So un- [F] like yester- [C] day, now's the [F] time for us to [G] say [G7]
Chorus: Happy new [C] year, happy new [E7] year
May we all [Am] have a [F] vision now and [A] then
Of a [A7] world where every [A] neighbour is a [Dm] friend [G7]
Happy new [C] year, happy new [E7] year
May we all [Am] have our [F] hopes, our will to [A] try
If we [A7] don't we might as [A] well lay down and [Dm] die [G7]
You and [Dm] I [G]...and [C] I
2. [C] Sometimes I [F] see, how the [C] brave new world ar- [E7] rives
And I [F] see how it [C] thrives, in the [F] ashes of our [G] lives
Oh [C] yes, man is a [F] fool and he [C] thinks he'll be [E7] okay
Dragging [F] on, feet of [C] clay, never [F] knowing he's a [C] tray
Keeps on [F] going any [G] way [G7]
3. [C] Seems to me [F] now, that the [C] dreams we had be- [E7] fore
Are all [F] dead, nothing [C] more, than con- [F] fetti on the [G] floor
It's the [C] end of a [F] decade, in [C] another ten years [E7] time
Who can [F] say what we'll [C] find, what lies [F] waiting down the [C] line
In the [F] end of eighty- [G] nine [G7]
