[Intro 1]
[C][C][C][C][C][C]
[C][G][F][C]

[Verse 1]
I was [C]twenty-one years
when I wrote this song
I'm [G]twenty-two now,
but I [Am]won't be for long
[F]People ask me when will I
grow [Em]up to understand
Why the [G]girls I knew at school
are al[F]ready pushing [C]prams

[Verse 2]
I [C]loved you then as I love you still
Though I [G]put you on a pedestal,
you [Am]put me on the pill
I [F]don't feel bad about [Em]letting you go
I [G]just feel sad about [F]letting you know
[F]

[Chorus 1]
I don't want to change the [C]world
I'm not looking [Em]for a new [Am]Eng land
Are you [F]looking for another [E]girl?[G]
[F]I don't want to change the wor[C]ld
I'm not looking [Em]for a new [Am]Eng land
Are you [F]looking for another [C]girl?[G][F][C]

[Verse 3]
I [C]loved the words
you wrote to me
But [G]that was bloody [Am]yesterday
I [F]can't survive on [Em]what you send
[G]Every time you [F]need a [C]friend

[Verse 4]
I [C]saw two shooting stars last night
I [G]wished on them,
but [Am]they were only satellites
It's [F]wrong to wish on [Em]space hardware
I [G]wish, I wish, I [F]wish you'd care
[F]

[Chorus 2]
I don't want to change the [C]world
I'm not looking [Em]for a new [Am]Eng land
Are you [F]looking for another [E]girl?[G]
[F]I don't want to change the wor[C]ld
I'm not looking [Em]for a new [Am]Eng land
Are you [F]looking for another girl?

[Verse 5]
My [D]dreams were full of strange ideas
My [A]mind was set des[Bm]pite all fears
But [G]other things got [D]in the way
I [A]never asked that [G]boy to [D]stay

[Verse 6]
[D]Once upon a time at home
I [A]sat beside the [Bm]tel ephone
[G]Waiting for someone to [D]pull me through
When at [A]last it didn't ring,
I [G]knew it wasn't you
[G]

[Chorus 3]
I don't want to change the [D]world
I'm not looking [F#m]for a new En[Bm]g land
Are you [G]looking for another [F#]girl?[A]
[G]I don't want to change the wor[D]ld
I'm not looking [F#m]for a new En[Bm]g land
Are you [G]looking for another?
I don't want to change the [D]world
I'm not looking [F#m]for a new En[Bm]g land
Are you [G]looking for another

[Outro 1]
[D](girl?) [G]Looking for another [D]girl
[G]Looking for another [D]girl
[G]Looking for another [D]girl[G]
[D]Gir[G]l[D][G]
[D]Gir[G]l[D][G]
[Repeat and fade]
