key: Gm
Bb
Open a new window,
           G
Open a new door,
Cm
Travel a new highway,
                        Bb
That's never been tried before;
F          Bb
Before you find you're a dull fellow,
                  G
Punching the same clock,
Cm
Walking the same tight rope
                   D
As everyone on the block.
    Gm                                Bb
The fellow you ought to be is three dimensional, 
           D    Bb           D
Soaking up life down to your toes,
C                                      C7
Whenever they say you're slightly unconventional,
              A                Dm
Just put your thumb up to your nose.
    F               Bb
And show 'em how to dance to a new rhythm,
              G
Whistle a new song,
Cm
Toast with a new vintage,
                          D
The fizz doesn't fizz too long.
        Gm                               Bb
There's only one way to make the bubbles stay,
       Cm
Simply travel a new high way,

Dance to a new rhythm,
C                 Cm F   Bb
Open a new window ev'ry day!

[Bridge]
       Cm
If you follow your Auntie Mame
               
I'll make this vow, my little love,
            G    
That on the last day of your life
          F                   
You'll be smiling the same young smile
               D7
You're smiling now, my little love,
       E
If you wake up ev'ry mornin'

And you pull aside the shutter,
        F
And you promise me that these'll be
                         F7
The first words that you utter:

[Chorus]
Bb
Open a new window,
           G
Open a new door,
Cm
Travel a new highway,
                        Bb
That's never been tried before;
F          Bb
Before you find you're a dull fellow,
                  G
Punching the same clock,
Cm
Walking the same tight rope
                   D
As everyone on the block.
    Gm                                Bb
The fellow you ought to be is three dimensional, 
           D    Bb           D
Soaking up life down to your toes,
C                                      C7
Whenever they say you're slightly unconventional,
              A                Dm
Just put your thumb up to your nose.

Toast with a new vintage,
                          D
The fizz doesn't fizz too long.

Dance to a new rhythm,
C                 Cm F   Bb

Open a new window ev'ry day!
