G           
I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
   Em                    C
Im twenty two now, but I wont be for long

C                             G
People ask when will you grow up to be a man
            D
But all the girls I loved at school
      C                  G
Are already pushing prams


G
I loved you then as I love you still

      Em
Tho I put you on a pedestal,
     C
They put you on the pill
                      G
I dont feel bad about letting you go
   D                  C
I just feel sad about letting you know


C                         G
I dont want to change the world
                         Em
Im not looking for a new england
        C                   D       C
Im just looking for another girl  
                          G
I dont want to change the world
                         Em
Im not looking for a new england
        C           D       G
Im just looking for another girl

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

I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them but they were only satellites
Is it wrong to wish on space hardware
I wish, I wish, I wish youd care

I dont want to change the world
Im not looking for a new england
Im just looking for another girl

I dont want to change the world
Im not looking for a new england
Im just looking for another girl

C           D       G
Looking for another girl
C           D       G
Looking for another girl
C           D       G            
Looking for another girl
