VERSE (PM):
G
books of Emerson books of Thoreau
Am
But all I read was maps of the road
C
I was 3,000 miles away from you and
G
All the while I was 22
G
What do you do to know who you are
Am
The best way for me was to drop out on tour
C
You went to upstate New York to go to school
G
To secure your roll with your parents
CHORUS
G Am C G
But I got a new perspective of you
G Am C G
All the good and bad that we went through
G Am C G
I know you better than you know you
Am C G
Because I got a new perspective of you
VERSE
G
I never needed much I never liked to loom
Am
But a gesture can get me from across the room
C
The first night we talked while the sun caught up
G
Transparent people melting around us
G
You left on a plane I left in a van
Am
Played nightclubs house parties and auditoriums
C
Saw Germany and Englany with my band
G
I know you better girl than your new friends
CHORUS
G Am C G
But I got a new perspective of you
G Am C G
All the good and bad that we went through
G Am C G
I know you better than you know you
Am C G
Because I got a new perspective of you
