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


CHORUS:
    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


CHORUS:
    C           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, 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


CHORUS:
    C           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
