Happy Days and Auld Lang Syne
BHe said, Dear, I’m leaving, right there in the hallway
As the party roared on all arEound
And her head wouldn’t turn, O shBe couldn’t look at him
In a F#whirlpool she C#mquietly F#drowned
G#mAnd she said to heD#rself, I G#mwon’t cry, I won?D#??t grieve
G#mBut I’ll laugh and I??D#?ll flow with Ethe wine
With the fast love of strangers we’ll sinBg Sweet Bye and Bye
Happy F#Days and Auld Lang BSyne
How I Bwish I knew all the old songs they’re singing
Such comfort they’re bringing to a heart that’s as F#empty as mine
O it C#mlifts you so high, does the SwEeet Bye and Bye
Happy F#Days and Auld Lang BSyne
And she said, I’ll be wearing my smile like a mask
And I’ll care for each stranger I kiss
And no-one will know that I’m wounded and cheated
So close to my moment of bliss
And sometimes you never connect with a song
Till it’s telling the way that you feel
Putting words to your story, all the pain and the glory
How can it be written so real
How I wish I knew...
