[Intro] D G D G D [Verse]
D                                    G 
The moment that you saw him you just looked the other way

D                    G              D
The blood within his eye was like a curse

   D                                G
He had two heavy pistols which were greased up and ready

      D               G            D
And a face like Bobby Dylan's only worse

G
He ordered up a whiskey which he drank like he was thirsty

D            A             D
Ordered him another of the same

D                           G
Suddenly the silence of the frozen room was shattered

     D              G                  D
By a kid who shot before he called his name

G          
He looked up at his killer from the floor where he had fallen

          D                  A                D
Said well look what you have gone and done to me

        D                                  G 
He said son I think you blew it but you're truly welcome to it

D              G          D
You can be the new mister me, yeah
[Chorus]
D
You can be the new mister me me me

                                      E       A
Ain't it true that's what you want to be, yessiree-bob

    D                                  G
And I'll be somewhere sunny where it's funny and it's free

    D              G          D
And you can be the new mister me
[Verse]
D                                      G
Well I was there the day they say that Bobby Dylan died

D              G            D
You and I both know he got away

     D                                G 
He's out there stealin horses, really learnin' how to ride

D               G           D
He's the reason I am free today, singin'
[Chorus]
    A     D                A           Bm
You gotta run like you've never run before

    G                    D
Up ahead there's so much more

         A             G
Than the life you left behind

     A     D          A             Bm
You gotta go, throw caution to the wind

             G                  D
You'll never get this chance again

              A             G
You'll find a new place to hide

  G                         G
Starting over for the last time
[Outro] D G D
