The New Year

"The New Year" Chords
by Parachute
Chords by Joe G

Capo on 1

Em* refers to 022003 (relative to the capo).  Basically an Em with your pinky on 
the 3rd fret of the high E string.

An asterisk (*) by itself indicates a muted chord, it's there to help show the pace of the song.


Intro:
G   C

G   C


G                           *               Em
I'm sick of cleaning up the mess you left behind 
            C
Oh, what a way to start the new year!
G                         *                             Em
On my hands and knees and cleaning up the dirt and grime 
            C
Oh, what a way to start the new year!


G                        *
I'm sick of holding both ends of the tightrope 
Em                             C
Cause when you fall all that's left is old high hopes for
G                           *                          Em
me.  Stretched thin, to the end, trying to keep it all in 
           C
Oh, what a way to start the new year!


D                          Am
 Won't you say that it's alright? 
D                       C
 Won't you tell me it's okay? 



Because there's...
G                 D     C         G
Three hundred and sixty-four more days 
G          G                  D          C       Em*
I might be smiling but you'll never even hear me say 
       Em*     Em/D   C
That I like it in the shadows 
                 Em*                C
Counting down to zero just to start again 
          D
Oh what a way to start the new year 


G  C  G  C

G                     *             Em
Don't get me wrong, I hate this holiday 
        C
What a way to start the new year!
G                      G                         Em
On my hands and knees, choosing what I have to say 
        C
What a way to start the new year!
G                         G
I never realized it could mean so much 
        Em                      C                      G
Just to go to bed later when we have to get up all the same, 
      G                        Em                  C
And we scream and clap for the end of what was and what we've become, oh...


D                         Am
Won't you say that it's alright? 
D                      C
Won't you tell me it's okay? 


'Cause we have...
G                 D     C         G
Three hundred and sixty-four more days 
G          G                  D          C       Em
I might be smiling but you'll never even hear me say 
       Em*      Em/D   C
That I like it in the shadows 
                 Em*                 C
Counting down to zero just to start again 
          D                        
Oh what a way to start the new year 


Am Bm C                    Em*
        Was it really that bad? 
Am    C                 Em*
        And could it be better? 
Am                    Bm
        Well, I don't know,
         C                C
But with you I still have hope 
     Am            C                G
That this... could be... oh, my year!


*                 D     C         G
Three hundred and sixty-four more days,
            G               D               C          Em*
One million chances left to find you and to see your face 
       Em*       Em/D  C                       Em*
Making light out of my shadows, finally get to zero 
                     C     D
And maybe we'll both say,   that we have...

G                 D     C         G
Three hundred and sixty-four more days
            G               D               C          Em*
One million chances left to find you and to see your face 
       Em        Em/D  C                       Em*
Making light out of my shadows, finally get to zero 
                     C
And maybe we'll both say 
            D                      G
"Oh, what a way to start the new year!"
