OLD FAMILIAR WAY - OF MONTREAL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

G# F# [ch]F#/C#[/ch] C#
C# Bb7
Neither the flowers on the hill,
D#m F#m
Or the moonlight on the sea,
C# G(b5) F# D#m
Have ever looked so blue.
C# Gdim F#m6 C#
And everything looks new again,
F7 C# F#
In that old familiar way.
C# Bb7
The view from my room,
D#m F#m
Of the ships on the bay,
C# G(b5) F# D#m
Had come to bore me through and through.
C# Gdim F#m6 C#
But they suddenly seem new again,
G#m C#7 F#
In that old familiar way.
F7 F# G# G#7 C#
The delicate ballet of blossoms falling off a tree,
A E
Had long gone unnoticed by me.
F7 F# C#
I'm stunned by what now I finally see.
D#7
It's amazing the wonders you can find,
G#7
Just by stepping outside.
C# G# F# [ch]F#/C#[/ch] C#
There's a skip in my step, a divine state of joy,
In everything I do.
Cause I am feeling new again,
In that old familiar way.
When I'm awoken from my dreams,
By a cuckoo on the roof,
I always join in too. (Cuckoo!)
And every sound sounds new again,
In that old familiar way.
The life I used to know when I was busy, always on the go,
Left me with nothing to show.
Now I feel that I can honestly say,
I'm living a suitable life.
I'm glad I finally got it right.
(Single notes under a C# chord)
D# C# C C# F# G# F# D# C#
Welcome to the Gay Parade.
