Lyrics

Brand New Way (Capo 3rd)

G-C-G-C… (rocking)
She does repairs by day on the subway, waits tables late at night.
G-C-G-C… (rocking)
But then she stays up writing poetry, until the morning light.
D C D C
We met on a city bus. She was driving for a spell.
D C G-C-G-C… (rocking)
She’s found a brand new way to ring my bell. (2x)
Ring, ring, ring my bell. (2x)

She walks like she’s hearing music, stepping on the balls of her feet.
She looks people right in the eyes, confidante to anyone she meets.
She found me at the end of my rope, but now I’m tied up in her spell.
She’s found a brand new way to ring my bell. (2x)
Ring, ring, ring my bell. (2x)

Her eyes have seen some tragedy. You wouldn’t know it by her smile.
Her long hair flows down her back. Her stride is a country mile.
She’s got me putting my lucky pennies down in her wishing well.
She’s found a brand new way to ring my bell. (2x)
Ring, ring, ring my bell. (2x)

She spends ten seconds in the mirror. Then she’s flying out the door.
She spends a long time on her kisses. She knows what they are for.
She feels safe inside my arms. In the lamplight I can tell.
She’s found a brand new way to ring my bell. (2x)
Ring, ring, ring my bell. (2x)
Ring my bell.
