E     A             E
I’ll have a happy new year next year
                                    B
‘Cause things ain’t goin good round here
    E
And it seems to be so sad
          A
That it’s January first and I already feel bad
            E     B             E
I’ll have a happy new year next year

[Verse 2]
                  A             E
I’ll have a happy new year next year
                                    B          
I’ve done run out of that Christmas cheer
          E                            
There’s a times square throng and a toning bell
         A
When the ball dropped down all went to hell
            E     B             E
I’ll have a happy new year next year

[Verse 3]
                   A            E
Oh how I wish that you were not here
                             B
To witness this loathing and fear
E 
Darling darling I feel the strain
    A
The years just begun and it’s down the drain
            E     B             E
I’ll have a happy new year next year
