Intro: F Dm Bb C Verse 1: F Ooh, silence is making me nostalgic Dm Two sizes big your shirt in my apartment Bb C Oh, we were kids, but that don't make this less hard F If I could fly I doubt I'd even do it Dm I'd probably get high and crash or something stupid Bb C You made Ohio feel just like Central Park Pre-chorus: Dm F Liberal rednecks get drunk on a dirt road Bb F C Attention deficit kids in their gym clothes Dm F Paper bags drift wherever the wind blows Bb And mine's full of receipts Chorus: Bb F Dm Ooh, this town’s for the record now Bb F The intersection got a Target Dm And they're calling it downtown Bb F Dm You and all of your new perspective now Bb F Wish I could shut it in a closet Dm And drag you back down Interlude (x2): Bb F Dm Verse 2: F Gave me your word and now I can't pronounce it Dm No thing so sure that I can't learn to doubt it Bb C Now the state bird, it sings our song so out of key Pre-chorus: Dm F Liberal rednecks get drunk on a dirt road Bb F C Attention deficit kids in their gym clothes Dm F Paper bags drift wherever the wind blows Bb And mine's full of receipts Chorus: Bb F Dm Ooh, this town’s for the record now Bb F The intersection got a Target Dm And they're calling it downtown Bb F Dm You and all of your new perspective now Bb F Wish I could shut it in a closet Dm And drag you back down Bridge: Bb F Dm Bb F Dm And drag you back down Pre-chorus: Dm F Liberal rednecks get drunk on a dirt road Bb F C Attention deficit kids in their gym clothes Dm F Paper bags drift wherever the wind blows Bb And mine's full of receipts Chorus: Bb F Dm Ooh, this town’s for the record now Bb F The intersection got a Target Dm And they're calling it downtown Bb F Dm You and all of your new perspective now Bb F Wish I could shut it in a closet Dm And drag you back down Bb F Dm Bb F Dm And drag you back down Bb F Dm Bb F Dm And drag you back down This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

How to play New Perspective on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the down-up eighths: d u d u. The groove sits around 140 bpm, a brisk pace. On this page the song is in F major. The chords ask a bit more of you, so I rate them proficient. Drive a fast down-up chug through verses and dig into the chorus.

-5 sounds the most like the original song to me, plus it’s the easiest
If you don’t have a capo I would switch out Bb for G, it sounds a little more like the original song!
