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