Capo II
G D C D 2x
G C
No more champagne
G B7
And the fireworks are through
C G
Here we are, me and you
C D
Feeling lost and feeling blue
G C
It's the end of the party
G B7
And the morning seems so grey
C G
So unlike yesterday
C D D7
Now's the time for us to say...
G
Happy new year
B7
Happy new year
Em C E
May we all have a vision now and then
E7 E E7 Am D7
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
G
Happy new year
B7
Happy new year
Em C E
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
E7 E E7 Am D
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
Am D D7
You and I
G C
Sometimes I see
G B7
How the brave new world arrives
C G
And I see how it thrives
C D
In the ashes of our lives
G C
Oh yes, man is a fool
G B7
And he thinks he'll be okay
C G
Dragging on, feet of clay
C G
Never knowing he's a stray
C D D7
Keeps on going anyway...
G
Happy new year
B7
Happy new year
Em C E
May we all have a vision now and then
E7 E E7 Am D7
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
G
Happy new year
B7
Happy new year
Em C E
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
E7 E E7 Am D
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
Am D D7
You and I
G D C D 2x
G C
Seems to me now
G B7
That the dreams we had before
C G
Are all dead, nothing more
C D
Than confetti on the floor
G C
It's the end of a decade
G B7
In another ten years time
C G
Who can say what we'll find?
C G
What lies waiting down the line
C D D7
In the end of eighty-nine...
G
Happy new year
B7
Happy new year
Em C E
May we all have a vision now and then
E7 E E7 Am D7
Of a world where every neighbor is a friend
G
Happy new year
B7
Happy new year
Em C E
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
E7 E E7 Am D
If we don't we might as well lay down and die
Am C G
You and I
G D C D 2x

I think this is a better suggestion:Intro: A, E/A, D/A, E/A, A (x2) (without capo, that is)Verse: A, F6b5, A, C#m, D, A, Bm, E7....

I think you should replace the D in the first line of the verse with a Bdim (B/D/F) or - even better - replace it with a Bm7b5 (B/D/F/A). Try it out, it sounds much more appropriate. Thank you anyway, great work.
