New Romantic

• G

Capo on third fret. This sounds okay to me, its not perfect, but its alright for
 a basic structure.

G                                                  Em
I know I said I loved you but I'm thinking I was wrong,
G                                      Em
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young,
Am                                                       D             
              G
and I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs.
G                                                                 Em
but a guy that I could never get 'cause his girlfriend was pretty fit
G                                                           Em
and everyone who knew her loved her so.
Am                                                      D
and I made you leave her for me and now I'm feeling pretty mean,
              G                                              Em        
                                    Am                   D
but my mind has fucked me over more times than any man could ever know.

Em                                    Am
Maybe I should give up, give in,
D                              G
give up trying to be thin,
Em                                   Am
give up and turn into my mother,
D                     G
god knows I love her.

              G                      Em                    Am 
                 D
and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,
                  G                        Em                 
                D
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
             G                                                   Em
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
                  Am          D
and I can't do it again.

G                                                    Em
So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right,
G                                                     Em
but I couldn't get into his head just what was going through my mind,
         Am                                                               
                                         G
and I think he knew where I was going 'cause he put Ryan Adams on I think he thinks it
                                     Em
makes me weak but it only ever makes me strong.
G                                                      Em
I've got this friend who sounds just like him,
        Am                                                  D          
                          G
now he's the man I'd leave you for, the man that I just adore like you.

       G                                                           Em
The same man, he turns to me he said I've got to tell you how i feel,
    G                                                      Em
if god could make the perfect girl for me it would be you
       Am                                           D
and my god told me not tell about how much do you love your fella?"
G                                  Em
I don't know more everyday
Am           D                   G
not in this new romantic way.
Em               Am            D     D  Em  
            Am            D      D
    I'll always be your first love, you'll always be my first love.

              G                      Em                    Am 
                 D
and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,
                  G                        Em                 
                D
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
             G                                                   Em
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
                  Am          D
and I can't do it again.
             G                                                Em       
                Am          D
I would never love a man cause I could never hurt a man, not in this new romantic
G
way.
