New Romantic Uke tab by Laura Marling

G                                  Em
I know I said I loved you but I'm thinking I was wrong,
G                            Em
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young,


Am                                  D                    G
and I never meant to hurt you when I wrote you ten love songs.
G                                           Em
but a guy that I could never get 'cause his girlfriend was pretty fit
G                                                         Em
and everyone who knew her loved her so.
Am                                    D
and I made you leave her for me and now I'm feeling pretty mean,
 G                                  Am                  D
but my mind has fucked me over more times than any man could ever know.

Em                        Am
Maybe I should give up, give in,
D                    G
give up trying to be thin,
Em                            Am
give up and turn into my mother,
D              G
god knows I love her.


          G        D                   Em                 Am
and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,

        G           D              Em
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
             G                             Em
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
            Am        D
and I can't do it again.

G                                 Em
So we stayed up late one night to try and get our problems right,
G                                       Em
but I couldn't get into his head just what was going through my mind,
       Am                                     G
and I think he knew where I was going 'cause he put Ryan Adams on I
G                                         Em
think he thinks it makes me weak but it only ever makes me strong.
G                                    Em
I've got this friend who sounds just like him,
    Am                             G                      D
now he's the man I'd leave you for, the man that I just adore like you.

      G                                     Em
The same man, he turns to me he said I've got to tell you how I feel,
    G                                   Em
if god could make the perfect girl for me it would be you
       Am                                         D
and my god told me not tell about how much do you love your fella?"
G                       Em
I don't know more everyday
Am            D           G
not in this new romantic way.

Am                       D         Am                 D
I'll always be your first love, you'll always be my first love.


         G         D                Em                    Am
and I'm sorry to which ever man should meet my sorry state,

          G                G           Em
watch my steady lonesome gait and beware.
           G                              Em
I would never love a man 'cause love and pain go hand in hand
             Am      D
and I can't do it again.

  G                                    Em
I would never love a man cause I could never hurt a man,

Am           D           G
not in this new romantic way.
