The curtain's up the show begins
A7 D
The party's over And the votes are in
Dm A
It's fresh and new and happenin'
B E
With or without you here
D A
So buckle up And hold on tight
Amaj7 D
We're gettin' straighter than a ray of light
Dm A
It's heaven born And ever bright
B E A
Another strange new year
[verse]
A Amaj7
The past has passed Forevermore
A7 D
It's time to turn your back And lock the door
Dm A
On everything that went before
B E
There's no use for that here
D A
You can live How you wanna live
Amaj7 D
But can the anger fuel the positive
Dm A
The universe has much to give
B E A
In every strange new year
[bridge]
D E A
Reborn Paraded in light
Amaj7 D
That flash before my eyes
Dm A
I see the hope inside
B E
And the dream of being alive
[verse]
A Amaj7
There's nothing left So make it up
A7 D
Get out and find your future Fill your cup
Dm A
You've got to play Cos you can't stop
B E A
Another strange new year
