Start Jamming...
[C] I'm 21 years old, I love this song, I'm 22 [Am] now, but I won't be for [F] long.
People ask [G] me when will I know I'm 21, but the girls I knew [F] at school already push [C] it past.
I'm juvenile, I love this [G] girl, I put you on [Am] a pedestal, you hit me.
[F] I don't feel [C] bad about letting you [G] go, I just feel [F] sad about letting you go.
[C]
I'm not looking [Am] for New England, [F] I'm looking for [E] another girl.
[G] [F] I don't want to [C] change the world, I'm not looking [Am] for New England, [F] I'm looking for [C] another girl.
I'm 22, [G] I'm not that much [Am] better yesterday, [F] I can't [C] survive on what's in [G] stand.
Every [F] time you leave the [C] bed.
I saw two shootings last [G] night, I wish I [Am] met.
I've been around in [F] satellites, it's hard to wish [Em] on space [G] hardware.
I wish, [F] I wish, I wish you cared.
I don't want to [C] change the world, I'm not looking for [Am] New England, [F] I'm looking for [E] another girl.
[G] I [F] don't want to [C] change the world, I'm not looking [Am] for New England, [F] I'm looking for [Bb] another girl.
[Dm]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
[D] I had a strange idea, [A] I was [Bm] set despite all fears.
[G] But after things [D] got in the way, [A] I never [G] asked that boy to [D] stay.
Once upon a time, I held [A] myself beside [Bm] the telephone.
[E] Waiting for someone to pull me through, when the message didn't [G] ring, I knew it wasn't you.
I don't want to [D] change the world, [A] I'm not looking for [Bm] New England, [G] I'm looking for [Gb] another girl.
[A] [G] I [E] don't want to change [D] the world, I'm not looking for [Bm] New England, [G] I'm looking for another girl.
I [D] don't want to change the world, I'm not looking for [Bm] New England, [G] [D] [E] I'm looking for another girl.
Looking for another [D] girl.
Looking for another girl.
