G                                          C
Well I've fallen just about as far as I'm gonna fall
          D                                   G
Well I've never been this low before that I recall
    G                                        C
And I'm getting' tired of people pickin' on me
      D                                     G
And I ain't a-goin' down from here wait and see


Chorus:

                   G              C
There's gonna be a new dawn and a new day
D                                          G
From this moment on things are gonna break my way
                 G               C
I'm gonna wear a new smile and a new face
D                                          G
And then I'm goin' out and get back in the race


Same two measure instrumental in G

Verse 2:

       G                                   C
Well a-people been a-walkin' on me way too long
        D                                       G
And the way I got it figured I've been doin' it wrong
   G                                    C
So from now on I'm a-gonna look out for me
          D                                    G
I'm gonna do what I want and be what I want to be


Chorus:

                   G              C
There's gonna be a new dawn and a new day
D                                          G
From this moment on things are gonna break my way
                   G               C
I'm a-gonna wear a new smile and a new face
    D                                      C
And then I'm goin' out and get back in the race
