Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
She sets her [C]alarm
Five minutes to midnight
And [F]wakes just in time
To greet the new year
Re[C]members the [F]kisses
Re[C]members the [F]laughter
And all that's gone [Gsus4]away[G]

[Verse 2]
She [C]shuffles around
Turning the lights on
[F]Goes to the kitchen
Gets the champagne
[C]Opens the [F]window
And [C]wrapped in a [F]blanket
Begins to count [Gsus4]and wait[G]
[F]Ten, nine, [Dm]eight, seven, [C]six, [G]five,
[Am]four, [G]three, [F]two, one

[Verse 3]
Happy [Dm]New Year, happy [C]New Year

[Verse 4]
[C]They say you can hear it
Over the island
[F]Starting in Times Square
and spreading throughout
A [C]roar like the [F]ocean
It [C]comes from [F]a distance
Grows louder then turn[Gsus4]s quiet[G]

[Verse 5]
She [C]sits in a dream
Or in a memory
While [F]old conversations
play in her ears
[C]Sometimes the [F]minutes feel
[C]longer than [F]hours
Some days feel long [Gsus4]as years[G]

[Verse 6]
[F]She just [Dm]glad [C]she gets to
[G]be aro[Am]und
[F]To see [Dm]another [C]spring come
[G]to this tow[Am]n[G]

[Verse 7]
Happy [F]New Year, happy [G]New Year
To [C]you

[Verse 8]
She [C]sets her alarm
Five minutes to midnight
And [F]wakes just in time
To say her goodbyes
[C]Thanking the [F]old year for
[C]all it has [F]brought her
No mention of the things it took
[Gsus4]away[G]

[Verse 9]
[G]She shuffles [C]around
Turning the lights out
[F]Closes the window
Checks on the locks
[C]Folds up the [F]blanket
[C]Empties the [F]bottle
And leaves it in the hallway
[Gsus4]dark[G]

[Verse 10]
[F]She's just [Dm]glad [C]she gets
[G]to be [Am]around[G]
To [F]see [Dm]another [C]spring come
to this [Am]town[G]

[Verse 11]
Happy [F]New Year, happy [Dm]New Year
Happy [C]New Year, happy [Am]New Year
Happy [F]New Year, happy [G]New Year
To [C]you[D][C][Am]
[G]Happy
