          D         Em7          F#m       G#m
When the bells all ring and the horns all blow
         Em7                              A7
And the couples that we know are finally kissing
        D       Em           F#m  F       Em7    A7
Will I be with you or will I be among the missing?

D                    Gm
Maybe it's much too early in the game
D7                    Gm
Oh, but I thought I'd ask you just the same
D                       E           A7      D  A7
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

Chorus:
D                       Gm
Wonder whose arms will hold you good and tight
D7                Gm
When it's exactly 12 o'clock midnight
D                     E7        A        D  C#7
Welcoming in the New Year, New Year's Eve

F#m              C#7
Oh, maybe I'm crazy to suppose
F#m             C#7
That I'd ever be the one you chose
F#m                B             E     A
Out of the thousand invitations you receive

Chorus:
Oh, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?

Oh, maybe I'm crazy to suppose
That I'd ever be the one you chose
Out of the thousand invitations you receive

Oh, but in case I stand one little chance
Here comes the jackpot question in advance
What are you doing New Year's, New Year's Eve?
