[Intro]
Dm E/D
[Verse 1]
Dm E/D
I don't have a sunny disposition.
Dm E/D
I'm not known for being too amused.
Gm Dm/F
My demeanor's locked in one position.
Em7b5 A7sus A7
See my face? I'm enthused.
Dm E/D
Suddenly, however, I've been puzzled.
D9 G
Bunny rabbits make me want to cry.
E/G# F/A
All my inhibitions have been muzzled,
G/B Gm7/C C
And I think I know why.
[Chorus]
F Am7 Eb Bb
I'm being pulled in a new direction,
F Am7 Eb Bb
But I think I like it. I think I like it.
F Am7 Eb(add2) Bb
I'm being pulled in a new direction.
Dm
Through my painful pursuit,
F9
Somehow birdies took root.
Bb Eb9
All the things I detested impossibly cute.
F/C Gm7/C
God! What do I do?
[Verse 2]
Dm E/D
Mother always said be kind to strangers,
D7 G/D
But she doesn't know what they destroy.
E/G# F/A
I can feel the clear and present dangers,
G/B Bb(add2)/C
When she learns that the boy...
[Chorus]
F F(add2)/A Eb(add2) Bb
Has got me pulled in a new direction,
F F(add2)/A Eb(add2) Bb
But I think I like it. I think I like it.
F F(add2)/A Eb(add2) Bb
I'm being pulled in a new direction,
Dm F7
And this feeling, I know is impossible,
Bb Eb9
So I'll confide that I've tried but I can't let it go.
F/C
It's disgustingly true!
Bbm/C
Pulled, pulled, pulled!
[Break]
F Bbsus
Puppy dogs with droopy faces,
Bb C(add4)
Unicorns with dancing mice,
F Bbsus
Sunrise in wide open spaces,
Bb C(add4)
DisneyWorld? I'll go there twice!
F Bbsus
Butterflies at picnic lunches,
Bb/F C(add4)
Bunches of chrysanthamums,
F Bbsus
Lollipops and pillow fights,
Bb/F C(add4)
And Christmas eve? Sugar plums!
Gb Fbsus2
String quartets and Chia Pets,
Cb/Eb Cb Db(add4)/F
And afternoon banana splits,
Gb Fbsus2
Angels watching as I sleep,
Cb/Eb Db7sus Gbm
And Liberace's Greatest Hits!
[Chorus]
D7 G5 F6/9 C6
Have got me pulled in a new direction!
G5 F6/9
If they keep insisting, I'll stop resisting.
G5 F6/9 C
Just watch me pulled in a new direction.
Em
I should stay in the dark,
G+/D#
Not obey every spark,
G/D
But the boy has a bite,
A/C# Cm/Eb
Better far than his bark!
G/D B/D
And you bet I'll bite too,
G/D E7
Do what's truly taboo,
Am9 C/E
As I'm pulled in a new
Cm6/Eb G5 F6/9 C6 G/D Csus2/E D/F# G(add2)/D G
Direction!
