C Dm
If you saw her in the street you might just walk on by
G C
She's so different from the girl you used to know
Dm
She is living over on the other side of town
G C
She goes to places you would never go
Dm
But it isn't just the surface things that alter her
G E
Though she's cut her long, blonde hair and changed her style
Am
She's grown up, she's grown wise
Dm
There's a sparkle in her eyes
G
She never has to force herself to smile.
C
The new me is walking tall
Dm A7
The new me thinks life's a ball
Dm
She's older, she's stronger
G
She's a trusting fool no longer
Am Dm
She has no more tears to cry
Am E
Now she holds her head up high
Dm G C
She's not just moving on, she's glad you're gone.
Dm
Oh, I thought that we were happy, for a while we were
G C
But looking back, it all feels like a dream
Dm
Yes, we said the words, we lived the life, but underneath
G C
It seems you never really joined the team
Dm
I'd have followed the world over if you'd asked me to
G E
But you threw my love away. like last weeks news
Am
Now you're riddled with self pity
Dm
Let me tell you it ain't pretty
G
You should have thought of what you had to lose
C
The new me is walking tall
Dm A7
The new me thinks life's a ball
Dm
She's older, she's stronger
G
She's a trusting fool no longer
Am Dm
She has no more tears to cry
Am E
Now she holds her head up high
Dm G C
She's not just moving on, she's glad you're gone.
Am E
If you met her now you'd find
Am A7
She has left you far behind
Dm G
She's happy to be free
C
She's a brand new me.
