[Bm] [E] [C#]
[B] [E]
[B] [A]
[E]
[B]
[Bm] Pop open [B] a bottle and bubble it.
Yeah.
Here's to another goddamn [A] new year.
[B] [C#m]
[B] [E]
[B] And outside 2 million drunk [C#m] Bostonians are getting ready to [B] sing Auld Lang Syne [G#] out of a tune.
[A] I sit there in my easy [B] chair, looking at the [C#m] clouds, orange with celebration.
[B] I wonder if you're out [E] there.
[G#]
[B] Hey!
[E] I saw a Boston of money.
[G] Little flats, no [B] wife, dead tank, overnight.
[A] I slip on it every [E] time.
[G]
[C#] [G#m]
[B] [E] [A]
[B] Pop open the [E] third bottle of bubbly.
Yeah, and I take [B] that bottle of champagne, go into the kitchen, stand in front of the
kitchen window, and I take all my clothes off, take that bottle of champagne, [C#m] and I
pour it on my head, feel it cascade [B] through my hair and across my chest, [C#m] and the phone rings.
And it's my [B] mother.
And she says, hi, [C#m] honey, how's Boston?
And I stand there [B] all alone on New Year's Eve, buck naked, [A] drenched in champagne, [B] looking
at a bunch of strangers, [C#m] looking at them, looking at me, looking at them, and I [B] say,
I'll [G#m] find my How's Washington?
[F#] Hey!
[E] I saw a Boston of money.
[G] Little flats, [F#] no wife, dead tank, overnight.
And I [B] slip on it every [E] time.
[B]
Hey!
I saw a Boston [E] of money.
Little flats, [B] no wife, dead tank, overnight.
And I slip on it every [E] time, time, [G] time, [B] time, yeah.
[B]
[E] [G#m]
[C#] [B]
[C#]
[E]
So I guess the party [C#] line is I followed [G#] you up here.
I don't know about that.
[C#m] Mainly because knowing about that would [B] involve knowing about some pathetic, ridiculous, [G#] and
absolutely true things about [B] myself.
I'd rather [C#m] not admit to right now.
[B] I woke up at [C#m] 3 a.m. with the radio on, that Gladys Knight and the [B] Pip song on about how
she'd rather [C#m] live in his world with him than live in her own [B] world alone.
And I laid [C#m] there, head spinning, trying to fall asleep, and [B] I thought to myself, oh,
Gladys, [G#m] girl, I love you, but oh!
You don't [F#] love
[E] me!
I saw a Boston of money.
Little [G] flats, no [F#] wife, [F#] dead tank, overnight.
And I slip on it every time.
[G] [B] [F#] Hey!
I saw a Boston [E] of money.
Little flats, [F#] no wife, dead tank, overnight.
[B] And I slip on it every [E] time, time, [B] time, time, [A] time, time, time, [E] time.
[B] Time, time, [F#] time.
Time, [F#m] time, [E] time.
