New Person, Same Old Mistakes

[Intro]
[Cm] [Db] [Ab] [Cm] [Eb] [Db] [Ab] [Cm]

[Cm]I can just [Db]hear them now
[Ab]"How could you [Cm]let us down?"
[Eb]But they don't [Db]know what I found
[Ab]Or see it [Cm]from this way around
[Cm]Feeling it overtake
[Db]All that I [Ab]used to hate
[Cm]One by [Eb]one every trait
[Db]I tried but [Ab]it's way too late
[Cm]All the signs [Cm]I don't read
[Db]Two sides of [Ab]me can't agree
[Cm]Will I be [Eb]in too deep?
[Db]Going with what [Ab]I always longed for
[Cm]Feel like a [Cm]brand new person
[Db](But you'll make [Ab]the same old mistakes)
[Cm]I don't care, [Eb]I'm in love
[Db](Stop before [Ab]it's too late)
[Cm]Feel like a [Cm]brand new person
[Db](But you'll make [Ab]the same old mistakes)
[Cm]I finally know [Eb]what it's like
[Db](You don't have [Ab]what it takes)
[Cm](Stop before it's [Cm]not too late)
[Db](I know there's [Ab]too much at stake)
[Cm](Making the [Eb]same mistakes)
[Db]And I still don't [Ab]know why it's happening
[Cm](Stop while it's [Cm]not too late)
[Db]And I [Ab]still don't know
[Cm]Finally taking flight
[Eb]I know you [Db]don't think it's right
[Ab]I know that [Cm]you think it's fake
[Cm]Maybe fake's [Db]what I like
[Ab]The point is, [Cm]I have the right
[Eb]Not thinking in [Db]black and white
[Ab]I'm thinking it's [Cm]worth the fight
[Cm]Soon to be [Db]out of sight
[Ab]Knowing it [Cm]all this time
[Eb]Going with what [Db]I always longed for
[Ab]Feel like a [Cm]brand new person
[Cm](But you'll make [Db]the same old mistakes)
[Ab]I don't care [Cm]I'm in love
[Eb](Stop before [Db]it's too late)
[Ab]Feel like a [Cm]brand new person
[Cm](But you'll make [Db]the same old mistakes)
[Ab]So how do I [Cm]know if it's right?
[Eb](You don't have [Db]what it takes)
[Ab](Stop before it's [Cm]not too late)
[Cm]Man, I know that [Db]it's hard to digest
[Ab]But maybe your story ain't [Cm]so different from the rest
[Eb]And I know it [Db]seems wrong to accept
[Ab]But you've got your demons, [Cm]and she's got her regrets
[Cm]And I know that [Db]it's hard to digest
[Ab]A realization is as [Cm]good as a guess
[Eb]And I know it [Db]seems wrong to accept
[Ab]But you've got your demons, [Cm]and she's got her regrets
[Cm]But you've got your demons, [Db]and she's got her regrets
[Ab]♪
[Cm]Feel like a [Eb]brand new person
[Db]So, how will I [Ab]know that it's right?
[Cm]♪
[Cm]In a [Db]new direction
[Ab]So, how will I [Cm]know I've gone too far?
[Eb](Stop thinking of [Db]the only option, oh)
[Ab]Feel like a [Cm]brand new person
[Cm]I finally know [Db]what it's like
[Ab](Stop thinking of [Cm]the only option, oh)

[Db]So how will I [Ab]know I've gone too far?
[Cm](Stop thinking of [Db]the only option, oh)
[Ab]And I know [Cm]it's hard to describe
[Db](Stop thinking of [Ab]the only option, oh)
[Cm]So how will I [Eb]know that it's right?
