[Intro]
Em G D Em C Bm D Em
[First Verse]
G
I heard he spent 500 pounds on jeans
D Em
Goes to the gym at least six times a week
C Bm
Wears boat shoes with no socks on his feet
D Em
And I hear he's on a new diet and watches what he eats
Em G
He's got his eyebrows plucked and his arsehole bleached
D Em
Owns every single Ministry CD
C Bm
He's got tribal tatoos but don't know what it means
D Em
But I hear he makes you happy and that's fine by me
G
But still, I'm just keepin' it real
D Em
Still lookin' at your Instagram and I'll be creepin' a lil'
C Bm
I'll be tryin' not to double tap, from way back
D Em
'Cause I know that's where the trouble's at
N.C.
Let me remind you of the days when
G
You used to hold my hand
D Em
And when we sipped champagne out of cider cans
C Bm
I guess if you were Lois Lane, I wasn't Superman
D Em
Just a young boy tryin' to be loved
N.C.
So let me give it to ya
[Chorus]
Em G
I don't wanna know about your new man
D Em
'Cause if it was meant to be
C Bm
You wouldn't be callin' me up tryin' to
D Em
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
Em G
I don't wanna know about your new man
D Em
We'll get there eventually
C Bm
I know you're missin' all this kind of love
D Em
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
[Verse]
G
Your new man rents a house in the 'burb
D Em
And wears a man bag on his shoulder, but I call it a purse
C Bm
Every year, he goes to Málaga with all the fellas
D Em
Drinks beer, but has a six pack, I'm kinda jealous
Em G D
He wears sunglasses indoors, in winter, at nighttime
Em
And every time a rap song comes on, he makes a gang sign
C Bm
Says, "Cheya!", boy dem light up the room
D Em
But enough about him, girl, let's talk about you
Em G
You were the type of girl who sat beside the water readin'
D Em
Eatin' a packet of crisp, but you will never find you cheatin'
C Bm
Now you're eatin' kale, hittin' the gym
D
Keepin' up with Kylie and Kim
Em
In the back of the club, kissin' a boy that ain't him
G
Okay, you need to be alone
D Em
And if you wanna talk about it, you can call my phone
C Bm
I just thought I would tell you, 'cause oughta know
D Em
You're still a young girl tryin' to be loved
N.C.
So let me give it to ya
[Chorus]
Em G
I don't wanna know about your new man
D Em
'Cause if it was meant to be
C Bm
You wouldn't be callin' me up tryin' to
D Em
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
Em G
I don't wanna know about your new man
D Em
We'll get there eventually
C Bm
I know you're missin' all this kind of love
D Em
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
[Bridge]
Em G D
Baby, I'm not tryin' to ruin your week
Em C
But you act so differently
Bm D Em
When you're with him, I know you're lonely
Em G D
Please remember you're still free
Em C
To make the choice and leave
Bm D
Don't call me up, you need to show me
[Chorus]
Em G
I don't wanna know about your new man
D Em
'Cause if it was meant to be
C Bm
You wouldn't be callin' me up tryin' to
D Em
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
Em G
I don't wanna know about your new man
D Em
We'll get there eventually
C Bm
I know you're missin' all this kind of love
D Em
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
