Your New Man

	  		 




Intro: C/G, Fmaj7/C, C/G, Fmaj7/C, C/G, Fmaj7/C, G, C 


               C              Fmaj7/C 
I'd heard some rumours on the grape vine, 
     C                 Fmaj7/C 
some whispers down the phone line, 
         C       Fmaj7/C          G      C 
and this digital age provides the ocular proof. 
         C               Fmaj7/C 
No man's amused of being jealous 
      C             Fmaj7/C 
but I dont get over Zallas(?). 
     C                Fmaj7/C 
What you do with your life now, 
       G     C 
baby's up to you. 


    Fmaj7/C 
Sometimes a man can get stuck 
     C/G 
when scared of being grown up, 
   Fmaj7/C                C/G 
confused by playing happy families. 
     C                     Fmaj7/C 
So I accept that times are changing, 
     C         Fmaj7/C 
with people rearranging, 
              C               Fmaj7/C 
and there's a new man at your table 
      G         C 
up in town pipe lane. 


Fmaj7/C, G, C 


    C/G              Fmaj7/C 
Now I don't know the details, 
         C/G                              Fmaj7/C 
in fact I've not thought much on this at all, 
            C/G            Fmaj7/C 
and I would hate to cast dispersions 
      G       C 
or be seen as cruel. 
    C/G                 Fmaj7/C 
Who cares if his hair is thinning, 
        C/G               Fmaj7/C 
if he's home from work on time? 
           C/G              Fmaj7/C 
Perhaps he even likes a few new bands 
   G          C 
he read about online. 


               C               Fmaj7/C 
So what if his eyes are close together, 
     C              Fmaj7/C 
some even like that better, 
               C/G              Fmaj7/C 
and if you can put up with that weird smile 
         G         C 
then I'm sure it's fine. 


   Fmaj7/C              
So good luck with your new man, 
  C 
I hope it goes to the plan 
    Fmaj7/C                     C 
and that he's not run over by a train. 


          C           Fmaj7/C 
Because I bet he is a nice guy, 
       C/G              Fmaj7/C 
like a really, really nice guy, 
             C/G          Fmaj7/C  G       C 
in fact he's probably the exact opposite of me. 


Fmaj7/C, G, C 


         C          Fmaj7/C     C            Fmaj7/C 
He's not fanatical, delusional, obsessive or emotional, 
           C               Fmaj7/C 
he wants a job, a house, a dog  
           G          C 
when all I wanted was you. 
         C             Fmaj7/C 
And even if he doesn't know  
           C                    Fmaj7/C 
the things that I know that you know I know, 
     C           Fmaj7/C           G        C 
he's compact and polite and drinks responsibly. 


Fmaj7/C 
So good luck with your new man, 
    C/G 
I'm sure it works out fine, 
      Fmaj7/C                          G 
let's hope he isn't struck down with a plague. 


           C                 Fmaj7/C 
So you can invite me to your wedding, 
             C                 Fmaj7/C 
but from the front row you will see 
     C              Fmaj7/C 
that he might be a lot of things 
    G        C 
but he's not me.
