New World

E|--------------| 

   / Björk       /  I think the song
 is about Selma imagining herself in
 heaven.
  / New World   /  Her previously 
new world USA didn't quite live up 
to her expec-
 / Selmasongs  /  tations, so she 
now tries her luck in the next 
world. It could
/_____________/  actually also be 
about the new life she has granted 
her son.

Time: 4 / 4
Key: Eb major (3 flats)
Chords:
(it was quite hard to find any 
chords that sounded anything like 
the symphony
 orchestra on the record, but this 
is my best solution to get the real 
sound)
