Billy Bragg's "A New England". You'll have to get the rhythm/feel of this
yourself... a lot of it is palm muted, etc, but then he hits chords pretty
hard and open... so, have fun!
the main chords are F and F with an E bass... mute it and use your pointer
for the bass string, dropping to an open E as necessary... most of the chords
are the E-Bar... slide between them... and play with it!
[Verse]
F F/E(1fr)
I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song
-->C(8fr) -->Dm(10fr)
I'm twenty-two now but I won't be for long
Bb(6) F(1)
People ask me when will you grow up to be a man
-->C(8) Bb(6) F F/E...
But all the girls I loved at school are already pushing prams
I loved you then as I love you still
Though I put you on a pedestal, I put you on the pill
I don't feel bad about letting you go
I just feel bad about letting you know
[Chorus]
Bb(6) Am(5) F(1)
I don't want to change the world
F F/E Dm(5)
I'm not looking for A New England
Bb Am C Csus4 C
I'm just looking for another girl
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for A New England
Bb C F
I'm just looking for another girl
[Verse]
I loved the words you wrote to me
but that was bloody yesterday
I can't survive on what you send
Everytime you need a friend
I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them but they were only sattelites
Is It wrong to wish on space hardware?
I wish I wish I wish you'd care
[Chorus]
Bb(6) Am(5) F(1)
I don't want to change the world
F F/E Dm(5)
I'm not looking for A New England
Bb Am C Csus4 C
I'm just looking for another girl
I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for A New England
Bb C F
I'm just looking for another girl
[Ending]
with F(8fr)/C(8)/Bb(6)/C(8). last chord is an Fmaj7.
