Strum
D-DU-UDU
 There’s talk on the street,  it sounds so fa-miliar.
 Great expecta-ations,  everybody’s watching  yo-ou.
 People you meet  they all seem to know  you,
 Even your old  friends treat you like you’re something  new.
 Johnny-come-la-ately,
 The new kid in town,
 Everybody lo-oves  you,
 So don’t let them do-o-own.
 (Sing slows down)
You  look in her eyes,
 The music be-gins  to play.
Hopeless  ro-ma-antics,  here we go a-ga-ain.
 But after a while you’re looking the other way.
 It’s those  re-estle-ess hea-arts  that ne-ever me-end.
 Johnny-come-la-ately,
 The new kid in town,
Will she still lo-ve you,
E
When you're not arou-u-u-u-u-und.
 Instrmental:
 There’s so many things you should have to-old her
 But night after night you’re willing to ho-old her,
 Just ho-old her
 (Key Change to )
Tears  on your shou-ul-der.
 There’s talk on the street,  it’s there to remi-i-ind  you
 That it doesn’t really ma-at-ter  which side  you’re on.
 You’re walking a-wa-ay  and they’re talking behi-i-ind  you.
 They will never  forget you till somebody  new comes alo-ong.
 (Play the Em7 chord with a loud ring after the bass notes are played (G,F,E))
 Where you been la-ately?
 (Play the Em7 chord with a loud ring after the bass notes are played (G,F,E))
 There’s a new kid in town.
 (Play the Em7 chord with a loud ring after the bass notes are played
 (,,))
 Everybody lo-oves  him, don’t they?
Now  he’s holding her
 Key change back to E
 And you’re still aro-o-o-o-ound,  oh my  my.
There’s  a new  ki-id  in to-o-  o-own,
Just  an-other new  ki-id  in to-o-o- o-own.
Oo- hoo,
 everybody’s talking ’bout the new  kid in town.
  Oo- hoo,
Oo- hoo,
 Everybody’s walking like the new  kid in town.
  Oo- hoo,
 There’s a new  kid in town I don’t want to hear it
 There’s a new  kid in town I don’t want to hear it
 There’s a new  kid in town
 There’s a new  kid in town
 There’s a new  kid in town (Everybody’s talking
 There’s a new  kid in town (People started walking)
 There’s a new  kid in town
 There’s a new  kid in town (repeat & fade)
