OLD FAMILIAR WAY - OF MONTREAL

G# F# (ch)F#/C#(/ch) C#
[C#] Neither the flowers on the [Bb7]hill,
Or the [D#m]moonlight on the [F#m]sea,
Have [C#]ever [G(b5)]looked so [F#]blue.[D#m]
And [C#]every[Gdim]thing looks [F#m6]new a[C#]gain,
In that [F7]old fa[C#]miliar [F#]way.
The [C#]view from my [Bb7]room,
Of the [D#m]ships on the [F#m]bay,
Had come to [C#]bore me [G(b5)]through and [F#]through.[D#m]
But they [C#]sudden[Gdim]ly seem [F#m6]new a[C#]gain,
In that [G#m]old fa[C#7]miliar [F#]way.
The [F7]delicate [F#]ballet of [G#]blossoms falling [G#7]off a [C#]tree,
Had [A]long gone unnoticed by [E]me.
I'm [F7]stunned by what [F#]now I finally [C#]see.
It's [D#7]amazing the wonders you can find,
Just by [G#7]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#]Wel[C#]come [C]to [C#]the [F#]Gay[G#] [F#] [D#]Par[C#]ade.
