D                       E      A  E
The midnight bells are ringing
D                E     A  G#m
A ship is setting sail
F#m                     A
A newborn baby's crying
E                  A    E
As lovers say farewell

[Chorus]

D                       A   E
And I'm singing hallelujah
D                 A  G#m
Amen, the angels say
F#m                       A
Let's hope tomorrow finds us
      D   E      A   E  
It's new year's day

[Verse 2]

D                     E     A       E
Let's toast to new beginnings, okay
D                   E    A  G#m
Raise up a glass and say
F#m                    A
"For all of our tomorrows
E                   A    E
And what was yesterday"

[Chorus]

D                      A   E
I'm singing carpe diem
D                     A  G#m
I'm saying seize the day
F#m                      A
Come on, let's live forever
      D   E      A   E
It's new year's day

A Bm F#m E x2

[Bridge]

D
Where does the time go
C#m
Just watch the wind blow
F#m
Sha-la-la-la
      E  F#m     E
It's new year's day
D
Green does the grass grow 
C#m
Outside my window
F#m
Sha-la-la-la
      E  F#m     E    
It's new year's day

[Verse 3]

D                  E    A  E
This message in a bottle
D                E    A  G#m  
The wisdom of the wine
F#m                     A
It's just a rainy Monday
E                     A
This isn't Auld Lang Syne

[Chorus]

D                   A   E
I'm singing hallelujah
D                 A   G#m
Amen, the angels say
F#m                       A
Let's hope tomorrow finds us
      D   E      A   E
It's new year's day
