Capo 2nd fret
C#m G#m A G#m
C#m G#m
I'll wear the jewels you gave me round my neck tonight
A G#m
though I know you won't be there
C#m G#m
I'll wear them in a gold chain that catches in the light
A G#m
though I know of course you won't appear
C#m G#m
I'll leave the party early, after a drink or two
A
and I'll check my phone for calls
G#m C#m
though I know there will be none
G#m A G#m
from you, from you
C#m G#m
I'll walk home with snow falling
A G#m
deep on frozen lawns
C#m G#m
and I'll leave all those others celebrating
A G#m
all the things that they have done
C#m G#m A G#m
C#m G#m
I'll come over to your office and watch them come and go
A G#m
though I know I won't see you there
C#m G#m
and I'll take a train down to the coast and sit and watch the sea
A G#m
I'll be sitting there alone
C#m G#m
As usual, above all things I miss you every day
A G#m
without pause
C#m G#m
Happy new year my darling
A G#m
happy new year
C#m G#m
I'll walk home with snow falling
A G#m
deep on frozen lawns
C#m G#m
and I'll leave all those others celebrating
A G#m
all the things that they have done
C#m G#m
Happy new year my darling
A G#m
happy new year
