Tap any chord in the song to see its shape. The boxes are drawn right-handed; Lefty flips them, which is how I actually play. Use − and + to move the whole song into a key that suits your voice, or tap Capo 3 to see the real chords with no capo.
Transposed. The chord names and boxes have moved; any tab on this page is still written for the original key.
Now today starts a new day babe, so let's just do it right Liner noteThis verse and the chorus started out as their own sketch called "No Name". Once the rest of the song showed up, the sketch got folded in here.
Grab my coat, and my keys and my cash and I dash to hit the town tonight
Rollin down on east high street I'll be there in a minute or two
And I turn off my telephone cause tonight it's just me and you
I can't wait to see you, babe
Every moment feels so true
God damn baby, you look so fine tonight
God damn baby, you look so fine tonight
Waiter get me a drink cause I'm losing it
At that first sight
I fell for you, oh so right
Under the city lights tonight
Hold me close, don't let me go
At that first sight, love will grow
Walking down the streets, hand in hand
Feels like we're in a dreamland
Every moment with you, so grand
In this city, we make our stand
Pre-Chorus TwoSame as Pre-Chorus One. Tap to open.
I can't wait to see you, babe
Every moment feels so true
Chorus TwoSame as Chorus One. Tap to open.
I fell for you, oh so right
Under the city lights tonight
Hold me close, don't let me go
At that first sight, love will grow
Every heartbeat echoes the night
Every whisper feels so right
We'll dance until the morning light
In your arms, I'll hold you tight
I fell for you, oh so right
Under the city lights tonight
Hold me close, don't let me go
At that first sight, love will grow
I fell for you, oh so right
Under the city lights tonight
Hold me close, don't let me go
At that first sight, love will grow
