[Verse 1]
    D   A4    D   Gmaj7/B         D        A4    Gmaj7/B   G
On New Years Eve,          I'll swear that I can change,
        D      A4     D    Gmaj7/B       D       A4     Gmaj7/B   G
With - in my winter weeds,         be - come a child a - gain,
    D       A4        D      Gmaj7/B           D    A4  Gmaj7/B   G
And I will take a strangers'  hand, and sing 'Auld lang syne',
      D     A4         D       Gmaj7/B        D     A4    Gmaj7/B   G
And memo - ries, faint to per - cieve, will circle near my mind!


[Verse 2]
    D   A4    D   Gmaj7/B   D              A4      Gmaj7/B   G
On New Years Eve,               just be - fore the bells,
      D        A4        D   Gmaj7/B      D         A4   Gmaj7/B   G
I'll feel the old year leave,         a lover that never tells,
    D       A4        D      Gmaj7/B           D    A4  Gmaj7/B   G
And I will take a strangers'  hand, and sing 'Auld lang syne',
     D        A4     D       Gmaj7/B        D         A4   Gmaj7/B  G
For none so sweetly can de - cieve, than stealth of passing time!
