Nothing New

                           C
They tell you while you’re young
                            Am
Girls, go out and have your fun
                            Em
Then they hunt and slay the ones
     F          Gsus4 G
Who actually do it
                      C
Criticize the way you fly
                                Am
When you’re soaring through the sky
                             Em
Shoot you down and then they sigh
              F                    
And say, “She looks like she’s been
 Gsus4       G
 through it”

[Pre-Chorus]
          Am     G       F
Lord what will become of me
                   Gsus4  G
Once I’ve lost my novelty

[Chorus]
F         G             C
  I’ve had too much to drink tonight
      C/B               Am
And I know it’s sad but this is what
 I think about
     F       G                    
And I wake up in the middle of the
     C
 night
         C/B    Am
It’s like I can feel time moving
F                       G
 How can a person know everything at
 18
    C          C/B    Am
But nothing at twenty-two?
             F
And will you still want me
G*                     C
When I’m nothing new?

[Verse 2]
                    C
How long will it be cute
                      Am
All this crying in my room
                              Em
When you can’t blame it on my youth
              F             Gsus4 G
And roll your eyes with affection
                          C
And my cheeks are growing tired
                            Am
From turning red and faking smiles
                   Em          F  
Are we only biding time till I 
            Gsus4 G
lose your attention?

[Pre-Chorus]
            Am          G      F
And someone else lights up the room
                Gsus4   G
People love an ingénue

[Chorus]
F         G             C
  I’ve had too much to drink tonight
     C/B          Am
How did I go from growing up to 
breaking down?
     F       G                    
And I wake up in the middle of the
     C
 night
         C/B    Am
It’s like I can feel time moving
F                       G
 How can a person know everything at
 18
    C          C/B    Am
But nothing at twenty-two?
             F
And will you still want me
G*
When I’m nothing new?

[Bridge]
F
 I know someday I’m gonna meet her
       G     F
It’s a fever dream
The kind of radiance you only have 
   G    F
at seventeen
She’ll know the way and then she’ll 
                G        F
say she got the map from me
I’ll say I’m happy for her then I’ll
       G       C
 cry myself to sleep

  Am   Em     F
Oooh  Oooh Oooh
 C    Am   Em    F
Oooh  Oooh Oooh Oooh

[Chorus]
         G*            C*
 I’ve had too much to drink tonight
                        Am*        
But I wonder if they’ll miss me 
                   F*
once they drive me out
                   G*              
I wake up (wake up) in the middle 
      C*
of the night
          Am*
And I can feel time moving
F                       G
 How can a person know everything at
 18
    C          C/B    Am
But nothing at twenty-two?
             F             G
And will you still want me
         C     C/B     Am
Will you still want me
          F
Will you still want me
G*
  When I’m nothing new?
