[Intro 1]
[Am]
[C][G][C][Am][C][G][C][Am]
[C][Am]
[C][Am][C]

[Verse 1]
So this [C]is the new year
[Am]And [C]I don't feel any different
[Am]The [C]clanking of
crys[Am]tal[C]
Explosions off in the [Am]dis tance [F](in the
[G][F][Am][G][C]
[Dm]dist[C]ance)

[Verse 2]
So this [C]is the new year
[Am]And [C]I have no resolutions
[Am]For [C]self assigned penance[Am]
[C]For problems with
easy [Am]solutions
[C]

[Verse 3]
[F]So everybody put your
best suit or dress on
[G]Let's make believe that we are
wealthy for just this [F]once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
[G]As thirty dialogues bleed into one[F]

[Verse 4]
I [F]wish the world was flat like the old days
[G]Then I could travel just
by folding [F]a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains,
or freeways
There'd be no distance that
could hold [G]us back

[Verse 5]
There'd be no distance that
could hold us [F]back
[G]There'd be no distance that could
hold us [Am]back[F][Am]
[G]There'd be no distance that could
[C]hold us [F]back

[Interlude 1]
[F][G][F][Am][C]

[Verse 6]
So this is [C]the new [Am]year[C]
So this is the new [Am]year[C]
So this is the new [Am]year[C]

[Outro 1]
So this is the new year
[Am][G]
