Dar Williams - Farewell To The Old Me 


C                              F 
How can I ask love to hold the mystery 
          Dm 
When just look at me 
         Em               F 
It's all push and pull collateral 
  C                                      F 
I don't want to be the one that gets the next surprise 
             Dm 
I'll plan it out this time 
         Em                                      F 
Though I used to think that things were meant to be

    C           F 
Farewell to the old me 
    C           F 
Farewell to the old me 
   Dm 
My life is working better now 
    Em              F        
But always changing anyhow 


  C                                F 
I danced a lot of nights until the grass was wet 
          Dm 
It wasn't over yet 
             Em         F 
'Round 'bout 3 a.m. you made a friend 
      C                             F 
And I followed a lot of vital crazy thoughts because 
               Dm 
It's where the meaning was 
      Em                           F 
And I tried to find it every other way

Farewell to the old me 
   Dm 
My life is working better now 
    Em              F       C     F  C  F 
But always changing any, anyhow 


    C                                     F 
But I can turn on the charm and show them nothing more 
               Dm 
Than what I've done before 
     Em                    F 
It's nothing much new, but it'll do 
         C                                    F 
'Cause I don't wanna be the one who makes you laugh out loud 
        Dm 
I wanna make you proud 
        Em                                F 
And you always said you knew what I could be
