            A New England (acoustic version)  Billy Bragg


[Verse]

G           
I was twenty one years when I wrote this song
   D                     Em
Im twenty two now, but I wont be for long
C                           G
People ask me 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
         D
Though I put you on a pedestal
     Em
They put you on the pill
   C                  G
I dont feel bad about letting you go
   D                  C
I just feel sad about letting you know


[Chorus]

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


[Verse]

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

G
I saw two shooting stars last night
D                    Em
I wished on them but they were only satellites
C                    G
Its wrong to wish on space hardware
  D               C
I wish, I wish, I wish you’d care


[Chorus]

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


[Outro]

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