Chords

[Intro] G Cadd9 G Cadd9 [Verse 1]
G                                D
Still faded 501s in resold boots

                        Em
Still elbows up on the bar

                                C
Still drive a Chevy with some rust

                            G
Run that engine way too hard

                        D
Still go quarters up to box

                                  Em
Smoke some homegrown now and then

                                C
Always laugh hard about old times

                            Am
Don't go think that I'm changing

                                         C
I got a few more miles in my guitar strings

        D
But I'm just a new old me
[Chorus]
G                                D
  Little bit older, a little bit wiser

                                  Em
Little bit simpler, a little more strong

                                      C
Little more of the man that I want to be
C C start 3 fret
G                                     D
  Little more grounded, a little more guided

                              Em
Little less reckless and open wide

                             C
Now when I pass the mirror I see

         Am                           C
the same guy I used to know but these days

    D
I'm just a new old me
G Cadd9 G [Verse 2]
G                                       D
I'm still known around this town in spots

                          Em
I got a reputation that deceives

                         C
county roads and parking lots

                       G
I still get me in some things

                           D
Won't start nothing that I quit

                                Em
Won't quit nothing till it gets done

                                   C
Still got a thing for long tangled blondes

                                  Am
But these days I only chase after one

                                    C
She's the mom of two and where's my ring

       D
That's just the new old me
[Chorus]
G                              D
  Little bit older, little bit wiser

                                  Em
Little bit simpler, a little more strong

                                      C
Little more of the man that I want to be
C C start 3rd fret
G                                     D
  Little more grounded, a little more guided

                              Em
Little less reckless and open wide

                             C
Now when I pass the mirror I see

         Am                           D
the same guy I used to know but these days

                    G
I'm just a new old me
G G Cadd9 [Bridge]
Am                           C
Same flesh, same bones, same skin

Am
Yeah, I like who I was but these days

                                    D
I'm just a little better version of him
[Chorus]
G                                D
  Little bit older, a little bit wiser

                                  Em
Little bit simpler, a little more strong

                                      C
Little more of the man that I want to be

G                                     D
  Little more grounded, a little more guided

                              Em
Little less reckless and open wide

                             C
Now when I pass the mirror I see

         Am                           C
the same guy I used to know but these days

D
I'm just a new old me
G Cadd9 G
