Verse
Asus2
 I spent the morning at an old friend's grave
                                     E       Bsus2
Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man
Asus2
  He spent his whole life spinnin' his wheels

Never knowin' how the real thing feels
  E                                Bsus2        Bsus
He never took a chance or took the time to dance
       Abm          Asus2        Bsus2       Bsus
And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye
Abm             Asus2            Bsus
  Today is the first day of the rest of my life


Chorus
           F#m                   E
I'm gonna stop lookin' back and start movin' on
     Asus2
And learn how to face my fears

Love with all of my heart, make my mark

I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man
