[Verse 1]
E                                  A7 E
  Don't ask me if I'm lonely, baby,   you know I'm lonely
A7 E                           A7                    E    E7
     If I wasn't lonely then I wouldn't be talkin' to you
E                         E7         E
  I'm trying to drink this poison and   see if it'll kill me
  E                              A7                           E
I used to have immunity, oh, but now I don't know what it'll do,


[Chorus 1]
                   A7                    E
 You see you don't know where I've been
             A7          E
I was just a canvas back then
            A7               E
But now I'm   drippin' with paint
        A7        D          E
I ain't old, baby I'm brand   new

        E                                         A7                   E

[Chorus 2]
         A7         E
So don't   shut me up
          A7        E
It' ain't   like it was
            A7         E
I shed some   lay-yay-yers
        A7        D         E
I ain't old, baby I'm brand  new

     E                                    A7                     E

You say I've been   ramblin' long
              A7        E
I'll keep on    rollin' on
            A7               E
That old cocoon is dead and gone
        A7        D          E
I ain't old, baby I'm brand   new
