D                 A   G 
Got a new pair of boots 
                             D                   A  G 
They fit much better than my old hometown shoes 
                            Bm 
They’ll be broken in with a little bit of using 
        A                             G 
If they don’t seem to confusing to my feet 
                            A 
But I bet they know what to do 
 
                     D     A   G 
Don’t worry ‘bout my mail 
                       D             A   G 
I’m not big on leaving paper trails 
                   Bm 
If the advertisers knew the right addressing  
        A 
For the letters that they’re sending 
         G                        A   
It won’t get them any closer to a sale 
 
Pre-Chorus 1: 
Bm                      G 
I know that leavin’ you wasn’t really fair 
    Bm                     
But if you would still like to write me 
A 
Send your letters care of  
 
Chorus: 
    D       A  G 
The new me 
                       D       A  G 
Don’t send them to the old me 
                        Bm 
All I know is that he’s gone 
                          A 
It was time that he moved on 
                       G  
And I like what I have seen 
                       A 
                     D       A  G  D  A  G 
So write care of the new me 
 
And I try to be polite 
I can’t remember ever running from a fight 
But for the first time in my life I took it easy 
And we ended up agreeing 
So we’re meeting for a beer tomorrow night 
 
Pre-Chorus 2: 
It’s true that this is not your burden to bear 
But if you would still like to write me 
Send your letters care of
