[INTRO]
C Ab F Bb


[VERSE 1]
C            G         D        A
Normally I'd be French-twisting my hair
C             G         D        A
And selecting the right earrings to wear
        F         G                     C        G         D        A
Oh it's a special evening for most, and normally I'd be proposing a toast


[CHORUS]
             F            C     G         Bb           F
But not this year because   I'm here, the party's all around me
    C     G     Bb             F
You're there, indifference has found me
      C                G               Am                D
And I know it's not in fashion wearing heartache on your sleeve
    C                    Ab           F            Bb                 C
But  I'm here and you're there so who cares what I wear on New Year's Eve


[VERSE 2]
C            G       D          A
Normally I'd be knee-deep in Champagne
C                G     D           A
Kick my heels up  'til neighbors complain
          F           G                     C        G        D           A
Oh it's a   glamorous evening for most, and normally I'd be upstaging the host


[CHORUS]
             F            C     G         Bb           F
But not this year because   I'm here, the party's all around me
    C     G     Bb             F
You're there, indifference has found me
      C                  G                Am                D
And I know I should have dressed up but I just can't make believe
    C                     Ab           F            Bb                 C
Now   I'm here and you're there so who cares what I wear on New Year's Eve


[BRIDGE]
Bb                      F          C
If you're flirting with some other girl tonight
Bb                    F          C
I'm not flirting with some other guy
Bb                    F            C        Bb       Am
I'm just thinking how last year at midnight you blew me away
            D                Bb
With the resolution that you made

You're there, indifference has found me

And tonight before the ball drops I'll grab my coat and leave
