Fashionably Late (Every New Year's Day)

[Intro]
Eb Cm7 Fm7 Ab
 
Eb
Lights start dimming
Cm7
Balloons on the ceiling
Fm7              Ab
And you’re still nowhere in sight
Eb
The DJ knows how
Cm7
I’m feeling somehow
Fm7                          Ab
Could cut the tension in the room
With a knife
 
Gm7                         Cm7
I got all dressed up hoping you’d notice
Gm7                             Cm7
Rehearsed this a thousand times in my head
Gm7                            Bb
Worked myself up thinking that you’d be here
 
Ab
Hoping you’re just fashionably late
                      Eb
You’ll walk in as the last song starts to play
                    Ab
And hold me in your arms as we start to sway
          Eb                            Ab
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s Day
 
Eb
I watch them dancing
Cm
They walk holding hands and
Fm7                   Ab
I start to worry it’s passing us by
Eb            Cm7
No resolution I just wanted you but
Fm                       Ab
The clock is ticking its way onto midnight
 
Gm                       Cm7
I grab my jacket now I’m heading out
Gm                       Cm7
Evеrybody’s starting to count it down
Gm                                Bb
Thought I caught a glimpse of you through the crowd
 
 
Ab
Hoping you’re just fashionably late
                      Eb
You’ll walk in as the last song starts to play
                    Ab
And hold me in your arms as we start to sway
          Eb                            Ab
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s Day
                   Ab
Confetti starts to rain down to the floor
                   Eb
My eyes can’t pull away from the front door
                    Ab
Oh it can’t be only me who feels this way
          Eb                            Ab
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s Day
 
Fm7
Smokes getting heavy I’m hypnotised
Eb
Head full of red wine we’re wasting time
Fm7             Gm
Thought that you’d made it
 
My heart is breaking
Ab                   Bb
You were meant to be mine
 
Ab  Eb
 
                    Ab
And hold me in your arms as we start to sway
          Eb
I’ve been dreaming all about this every New Year’s
                Ab
Confetti covers everything in sight
            Eb
Lovers disappear into the night
                    Ab
Oh it can’t be only me who feels this way
          Eb                                        Ab
I’ve been dreaming all about this every god damn day
 
          Eb                                    Ab
I’ve been dreaming dreaming every New Year’s Day
