G5           
I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
   D5                     E5
Im twenty two now, but I wont be for long
C5                           G5
People ask me when will you grow up to be a man
            D5
But all the girls I loved at school
      C5                G5
Are already pushing prams


G5
I loved you then as I love you still
         D5
Though I put you on a pedestal
     E5
They put you on the pill
   C5                  G5
I dont feel bad about letting you go
   D5                  C5
I just feel sad about letting you know


C5                         G5
I dont want to change the world
                         E5
Im not looking for a new England
        C5                   D5
Im just looking for another girl  
C5                          G5
I don?t want to change the world
                         E5
Im not looking for a new England
        C5                   G5
Im just looking for another girl

G5
I loved the words you wrote to me
    D5               E5
But that was bloody yesterday
   C5              G5
I cant survive on what you send
   D5           C5           G5
Every time you need a friend

G5
I saw two shooting stars last night
D5                    E5
I wished on them but they were only satellites
C5                    G5
Its wrong to wish on space hardware
  D5               C5
I wish, I wish, I wish you?d care

C5                          G5
I dont want to change the world
                         E5
Im not looking for a new England
        C5                   D5
Im just looking for another girl  
C5                         G5
I dont want to change the world
                         E5
Im not looking for a new England
        C5                   G5
Im just looking for another girl


C5                   G5
Looking for another girl
C5                   G5
Looking for another girl
C5                   G5            
Looking for another girl
