Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne ?

B
He said, Dear, I?m leaving, right there in the hallway
                             E
As the party roared on all around
                                  B
And her head wouldn?t turn, O she couldn?t look at him
     F#            C#m     F#
In a whirlpool she quietly drowned

Abm               Eb       Abm                Eb     
And she said to herself, I won?t cry, I won?t grieve
Abm                     Eb            E
But I?ll laugh and I?ll flow with the wine
                                           B
With the fast love of strangers we?ll sing Sweet Bye and Bye
      F#                 B
Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne

      B
How I wish I knew all the old songs they?re singing
                                                        F#
Such comfort they?re bringing  to a heart that?s as empty as mine
     C#m                           E 
O it lifts you so high, does the Sweet Bye and Bye
      F#                 B
Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne

And she said, I?ll be wearing my smile like a mask
And I?ll care for each stranger I kiss
And no-one will know that I?m wounded and cheated
So close to my moment of bliss
And sometimes you never connect with a song
Till it?s telling the way that you feel
Putting words to your story, all the pain and the glory
How can it be written so real

How I wish I knew...
