Intro: (2x) Verse: (2x) I'm so alive I'm so enlightened I can barely survive A night in my mind So I've got a plan I'm gonna find out just how boring I am And have a good time Chorus: 'Cause ever since I tried?, trying not to find Every little meaning in my life It's been fine, I've been cool With my new golden rule Now it's the new deep Down with the old me Talk is the same cheap It's been Middle-tro: Verse: (2x) Is there a guy Why is he waiting Don't you figure it out When he knows my address And look at the stars Don't they remind you Just how feeble we are Well it used to I guess Chorus: 'Cause ever since I tried?, trying not to find Every little meaning in my life It's been fine, I've been cool With my new golden rule Now it's the new deep Down with the old me Talk is the same cheap It's been Bridge: (4x) I'm a new man I wear a new cologne And you wouldn't know me If your eyes were closed I know what you'd say This will last longer than the rest of the day But you're wrong this time You're wrong Chorus: Now it's the new deep Down with the old me I'm over the analyzing tonight Stop trying to figure it out (you try to figure, you try to figure it out) It will only bring you down You know I used to be the back-porch-poet with my book of lines, always open No and all the time I'm probably Never gonna find the perfect rhyme For heavier things Outro: (Fade) The intro and verses can also be played like this: Tempo (BPM): 73 {Intro/Verse} e ----5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5 B ----3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2-1-1-1-0-0-0-0-0-3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2 G ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x D ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x A ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x E ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x e ----3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2 B ----1-1-1-0-0-0-0-0 G ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x D ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x A ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x E ----x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x This is continually repeated throughout the entire song.
