so this is the new year.
Eb			C
and I don't feel any different.
Eb			C
the clanking of crystal
Eb			C		Ab Bb Ab Eb
explosions off in the distance (in the distance).


Eb			C
so this is the new year
Eb			C
and I have no resolutions
Eb			C
for self-assigned penance
Eb			C
for problems with easy solutions

Eb

Ab		
so everybody put your best suit or dress on
Bb
let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Ab
lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
Bb
as thirty dialogues bleed into one

Ab
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Bb
then I could travel just by folding a map
Ab
no more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
Bb
there'd be no distance that can hold us back.

Ab
Bb
there'd be no distance that could hold us back
C
there'd be no distance that could hold us back
Eb
there'd be no distance that could hold us back

Ab Bb C Eb

Eb		   Cm
so this is the new year (x4)
