Nothing New

Verse C They tell you while you're young Am "Girls, go out and have your fun," Em F G Then they hunt and slay the ones who actually do it C Criticize the way you fly Am When you're soarin' through the sky Em Shoot you down, and then they sigh and say F G "She looks like she's been through it," [Pre-Chorus] F Lord, what will become of me 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 C And I wake up in the middle of the night C/B Am It's like I can feel time moving F G C C/B Am How can a person know everything at eighteen but nothin' at twenty-two? F G And will you still want me when I'm nothin' new? Verse C How long will it be cute Am All this cryin' in my room Em F G Whеn you can't blame it on my youth and roll your eyes with affеction? C And my cheeks are growin' tired Am From turnin' red and fakin' smiles Em F G Are we only bidin' time 'til I lose your attention? [Pre-Chorus] F And someone else lights up the room 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 growin' up to breakin' down F G C And I wake up in the middle of the night C/B Am It's like I can feel time moving F G C C/B Am How can a person know everything at eighteen but nothin' at twenty-two? F G And will you still want me when I'm nothin' new? Bridge F I know someday I'm gonna meet her G F It's a fever dream F G F The kind of radiance you only have at seventeen F G F She'll know the way and then she'll say she got the map from me G C I'll say I'm happy for her, then I'll cry myself to sleep Chorus F G C I've had too much to drink tonight C/B Am But I wonder if they'll miss me once they drive me out F G C I wake up in the middle of the night C/B Am And I can feel time moving F G C C/B Am How can a person know everything at eighteen but nothin' at twenty-two? Outro F G And will you still want me F G Will you still want me F G Will you still want me When I'm nothin' new?
