Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (Strum each chord one time as noted)
 Goodness-a-me,  yes  I’d agree
 I was  the one who ended up our history
 Well it looks  like you wrote the last page  to me
 Your friends  say you’ve got a new man
 Girl, that’s so  not cool in so many  ways
 These  were s’posed to be my carefree single  days
 Instead  I’m punchin’ walls and coming up  ways
 Ways  to win you back from your new man.
 (Strumming, pick root notes – for CaddG, alternate C and G bass notes or just
 a regular C and move your pinkie between C and G as you play those bass notes)
   add
 Well right now he’s a probly moaning your name
   add
 The thought of it is driving me insane
 Got to get religion just to ease  the pain
   add
 Of thinking ‘bout you loving your new man
 Well, did you get the literature I left  in your bed?
   add
 Told you keep it frozen, it caught fire instead
 Have you not heard a single word  I’ve said?
   add
 No, you were busy loving your new man.
 Goodness garage – his name is probly Rodge
 He probly drives a truck and his hands are probly big
 I bet he fixes things around your place when they break
 If he says he likes your cooking he’s a fake
 Girl, please say he doesn’t tuck his shirts in, please
 Please say he doesn’t wear a gold chain, PLEASE
 Things were going great; I even went on a date
 Then I found out about your new man.
 Well right now he’s a probly moaning your name
 The thought of it is driving me insane
 Got to get religion just to ease the pain
 Of thinking ‘bout you loving your new man
 Well, did you get the literature I left in your bed?
 Told you keep it frozen, it caught fire instead
 Have you not heard a single word I’ve said?
 No, you were busy loving your new man.
 Holly round the tree, that kiss was meant for me
 Trust me, he’ll get way too drunk at your Christmas Party
 Your friends will laugh at first but as the night gets worse
 Collectively they’ll run off your new man
 And who’ll be standing there looking like Fred Astair? Me
 And I’ll be singing where o where have you been all Fall while I was having a ball?
 Certainly, not with your new man
 (second - same as before except ending as noted)
 Well right now he’s a probly crying your name
 The thought of it is driving him insane
 Got to find another just to ease the pain
 Of thinking ‘bout you loving your new man
 Well, did you get the messages he left on your phone?
 Told you that he’s sorry and to please come home
 Maybe you’d of answered, but were you alone?
   add
 No, you were busy loving your new man, right
   add
 You were busy loving your new man – me
   add
 You were busy loving your new man – that’s right.

No, you were busy loving your new man.

Goodness garage – his name is probly Rodge

He probly drives a truck and his hands are probly big

I bet he fixes things around your place when they break

If he says he likes your cooking he’s a fake

Girl, please say he doesn’t tuck his shirts in, please

Please say he doesn’t wear a gold chain, PLEASE

Things were going great; I even went on a date

Then I found out about your new man.

Well right now he’s a probly moaning your name

The thought of it is driving me insane

Got to get religion just to ease the pain

Of thinking ‘bout you loving your new man

Well, did you get the literature I left in your bed?

Told you keep it frozen, it caught fire instead

Have you not heard a single word I’ve said?

No, you were busy loving your new man.

Holly round the tree, that kiss was meant for me

Trust me, he’ll get way too drunk at your Christmas Party

Your friends will laugh at first but as the night gets worse

Collectively they’ll run off your new man

And who’ll be standing there looking like Fred Astair?  Me

And I’ll be singing where o where have you been all Fall while I was having a ball?

Certainly, not with your new man

(second - same as before except ending as noted)

Well right now he’s a probly crying your name

The thought of it is driving him insane

Got to find another just to ease the pain

Of thinking ‘bout you loving your new man

Well, did you get the messages he left on your phone?

Told you that he’s sorry and to please come home

Maybe you’d of answered, but were you alone?
       [C] add [G]                         [G]
No, you were busy loving your new man, right
       [C] add [G]                      [G]
You were busy loving your new man – me
       [C] add [G]                 [G]       [C]       [G]
You were busy loving your new man – that’s right.
