Ed Sheeran – New Man
Key: C Major BPM: ♩ = 60 Time: 4/4
|Em    G    |D    Em    |C    Bm7    |D    Em    |

 |Em                          G               |D                        Em              |
I heard he spent five hundred pounds on jeans, goes to the gym at least six times a week
|C                        Bm7              |
 Wears boat shoes with no socks on his feet
     |D                            Em                  |
And I heard he’s on a new diet and watches what he eats
            |Em                       G                 |D                     Em     |
He’s got his eyebrows plucked and his arsehole bleached, owns every single Ministry CD
|C                           Bm7               |
 Tribal tattoos and he don’t know what it means
     |D                                  Em        |
But I heard he makes you happy so that’s fine by me

   |Em              G              |
But still, I’m just keeping it real
             |D                             Em               |
Still looking at your Instagram and I’ll be creeping a little
       |C                       Bm7            |
I’ll be trying not to double tap, from way back
       |D                                 Em   |
Cause I know that’s where the trouble’s at
                    |Em                    G           |
Let me remind of the days when you used to hold my hand
           |D                       Em        |
And when we sipped champagne out of cider cans
          |C                            Bm7     |
I guess if you were Lois Lane, I wasn’t superman
      |D                      Em                             |
Just a young boy trying to be loved, so let me give it to you

|Em                    G                |D                 Em         |
   I don’t wanna know about your new man,  cause if it was meant to be
|C                            Bm7         |
   You wouldn’t be calling me up trying to
         |D                            Em           |
Cause I’m positive that he don’t wanna know about me
|Em                    G                |D                  Em       |
   I don’t wanna know about your new man,  we’ll get there eventually
|C                           Bm7              |
   I know you’re missing all this kind of love
       |D                            Em           |
But I’m positive that he don’t wanna know about me

|Em                     G                |
   Your new man rents a house in the burb
           |D                             Em             |
And wears a man bag on his shoulder but I call it a purse
     |C                            Bm7           |
Every year he goes to Malaga, with all the fellas
      |D                            Em             |
Drinks beer but has a six pack, I’m kind of jealous
        |Em                    G                       |D                           Em  |
He wears sunglasses indoors in winter at nighttime, and every time a rap song comes on
                         |C              Bm7              |
He makes a gun sign, says chune, bwoydem light up the room
    |D                           Em            |
But enough about him, girl let’s talk about you

            |Em                               G            |
You were the type of girl that sat beside the water reading
        |D                             Em                     |
Eating a packet of crisps but you will never find you cheating
          |C                        Bm7   |
Now you’re eating kale, hitting the gym
                       |D                       Em                           |
Keeping up with Kylie & Kim, in the back of the club kissing a boy that ain’t
|Em                  G                   |D                           Em           |
 him, ok you need to be alone, and if you wanna talk about it you can call my phone
      |C                                       Bm7        |
I just thought that I would tell you cause you oughta know
              |D                       Em                             |
You’re still a young girl trying to be loved, so let me give it to you 

|Em                    G                |D                 Em         |
   I don’t wanna know about your new man,  cause if it was meant to be
|C                            Bm7         |
   You wouldn’t be calling me up trying to
         |D                            Em           |
Cause I’m positive that he don’t wanna know about me
|Em                    G                |D                  Em       |
   I don’t wanna know about your new man,  we’ll get there eventually
|C                           Bm7              |
   I know you’re missing all this kind of love
       |D                            Em           |
But I’m positive that he don’t wanna know about me

 |Em      G                      |D         Em        |
Baby, I’m not trying to ruin your week, but you act so
        |C   Bm7                   |D           Em    |
differently, when you’re with him I know you’re lonely
|Em      G                    |D     Em                    |
 Please, remember you’re still free, to make the choice and
|C          Bm7                 |D       Em     |
 leave, and don’t call me up you need to show me

|Em                    G                |D                 Em         |

|Em                    G                |D                  Em       |
