C                              Dm
If you saw her in the street you might just walk on by
         G                                  C
She's so different from the girl you used to know
                                Dm
She is living over on the other side of town
    G                         C
She goes to places you would never go
                                          Dm
But it isn't just the surface things that alter her
             G                                     E
Though she's cut her long, blonde hair and changed her style
            Am
She's grown up, she's grown wise
           Dm
There's a sparkle in her eyes
     G
She never has to force herself to smile.

        C
The new me is walking tall
        Dm               A7
The new me thinks life's a ball
       Dm
She's older, she's stronger
        G
She's a trusting fool no longer
     Am                  Dm
She has no more tears to cry
         Am                E
Now she holds her head up high
       Dm             G             C
She's not just moving on, she's glad you're gone.

                                       Dm
Oh, I thought that we were happy, for a while we were
     G                            C
But looking back, it all feels like a dream
                                               Dm
Yes, we said the words, we lived the life, but underneath
    G                                 C
It seems you never really joined the team
                                          Dm
I'd have followed the world over if you'd asked me to
         G                             E
But you threw my love away. like last weeks news
            Am
Now you're riddled with self pity
        Dm
Let me tell you it ain't pretty
      G
You should have thought of what you had to lose

        C
The new me is walking tall
        Dm               A7
The new me thinks life's a ball
       Dm
She's older, she's stronger
        G
She's a trusting fool no longer
     Am                  Dm
She has no more tears to cry
         Am                E
Now she holds her head up high
       Dm             G             C
She's not just moving on, she's glad you're gone.

       Am                 E
If you met her now you'd find
         Am           A7
She has left you far behind
       Dm          G
She's happy to be free
         C
She's a brand new me.
