Song: NYE
Artist: Originally Perry Keyes, but this version is as performed by Missy Higgins
Tabbed: Kate
Tuning: Standard
So different from the amazing, utterly brilliant original. This version really brings the
liveliness of the lyrics and the tune to the fore. It truly feels like a new year's song.

All the girls are drunk

Maybe so am I

Every single Taxi's hired

My little brother's in his bedroom

Desert dust dragging off the dunes

Downtown's got it's own sound
A F# D
Whistlin' through these rooms
G
And the streets are full of action
A Bm
The burning sands are hangin' high
A G
I just gotta get some traction
A D
Let the light shoot through my eyes
G
All the punks are lightin' fires
A D
Drinkin' long necks in the park
G
Some girl is swimmin' in the fountain
A D
Singing Buzzcocks in the dark

Your sister always says she's lonely

As the last train left the station
