I'll wear the jewels you gave me round my neck tonight
F# Fm
though I know you won't be there
A#m Fm
I'll wear them in a gold chain that catches in the light
F# Fm
though I know of course you won't appear
A#m Fm
I'll leave the party early, after a drink or two
F#
and I'll check my phone for calls
Fm A#m
though I know there will be none
Fm F# Fm
from you, from you
A#m Fm
I'll walk home with snow falling
F# Fm
deep on frozen lawns
A#m Fm
and I'll leave all those others celebrating
F# Fm
all the things that they have done
A#m Fm F# Fm
A#m Fm
I'll come over to your office and watch them come and go
F# Fm
though I know I won't see you there
A#m Fm
and I'll take a train down to the coast and sit and watch the sea
F# Fm
I'll be sitting there alone
A#m Fm
As usual, above all things I miss you every day
F# Fm
without pause
A#m Fm
Happy new year my darling
F# Fm
happy new year
A#m Fm
I'll walk home with snow falling
F# Fm
deep on frozen lawns
A#m Fm
and I'll leave all those others celebrating
F# Fm
all the things that they have done
A#m Fm
Happy new year my darling
