A New Man by Josh Ritter
A New Man
Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:G
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
G C
Look at you, the sorry state you're in
G C
A man without a country or a friend
G C
A man who can't remember how his blood would shake in boyhood
G C
To the rhythm of the wheat fields in the wind
[Interlude]
|G |C |G |C |
[Verse 2]
G C
Stung by those old lies you told yourself
G C
Strung with that same rope you sold yourself
G C
Either you can't hear the bells or you can't tell for whom they toll
D D7
And still they toll, it's time to go
[Interlude]
|G |C |G |C |
[Verse 3]
G C
Make a habit of erasing every track
G C
No trace of love behind to mark your path
G C
Teaching everyone a lesson, thought your heart was worth the hold
D D7
And that it's not, is that what you want?
[Chorus 1]
C
You must become a new man
G Gadd11 G
Must become a new man
C
Must become a new man
G G/F# Em D
Change
[Verse 4]
G C
You felt the storm clouds building in your bones
G C
Tornados spun for you and you alone
G C
And then wrapped themselves around you in the rain and whipping wind
D D7
And slip your skin, begin again
[Verse 5]
G C
And you'll find there's only love and love's returnin'
G C
And you'll finally know the warmth of home fires burnin'
G C
And the green hills will be waving with abandon
G C
The road unrolled before you like an anthem
[Verse 6]
G C
In every strangers face a place of welcome
G C
No matter who you are or where you came from
G C
You won't walk among the dead a moment longer
D D7
You won't belong there
[Chorus 2]
C
You will be a new man
G Gadd11 G
You will be a new man
C
You will be a new man
G G/F# Em D
Change
[Chorus 2]
C
You will be a new man
G Gadd11 G
You will be a new man
C
You will be a new man
G G/F# Em D
