Whoa........ 
F 
It's a good night for singing, I got too drunk and my ears are still ringing 
     C                                       F 
It's so good to be here, it's a brand new day 
F                                     F                            C 
We been singing weary midnight tunes, we started at noon, it's a slip of the moon 
        Gm7                 C              F 
And we still got time, it's a brand new day 

F 
I wonder where are all the pleasant souls tonight 
F 
Indecision made them stay home and wait for daylight 
C                                     F 
Spherical witness, help me in my flight 

Dm             Am                Dm                  Am 
Singing hours into the night, over and over 'til we saw the light 
Dm                         Am 
The nightime seesaw, the lovelight we saw 
Gm7                        C 
Love at the right time, love at the right time 

F 
It's a good night for singing, I got too drunk and my ears are still ringing 
     C                                    F 
It's so good to see you, it's a brand new day 

F 
It took us lifetimes to get this far, back to reality 
C                 Gm7         C              F 
Wonder where we are tonight, it's a brand new day
