                 verse 1
 Bm          E          G          Eb
When she was 22 the future looked bright
 Bm          E          G                   Eb Gb
But she’s nearly 30 now and she’s out every night
 Bm          E              G                    Eb
I see that look in her face she’s got that look in her eye
 Bm                    E             G       Eb  Gb
She’s thinking how did I get here and wondering why

            chorus
 Em               D                 A
It’s sad but it’s true how society says
                    G
Her life is already over
 Em                D                         A
There’s nothing to do and there’s nothing to say
 Em                D                            A
Til the man of her dreams comes along picks her up and puts her over his
   G
 shoulder
 Em             D                     A
It seems so unlikely in this day and age

               verse 2
  Bm          E          G             Eb
She’s got an alright job but it’s not a career
  Bm          E                  G          Eb   Gb
Whenever she thinks about it, it brings her to tears
  Bm                    E
Cause all she wants is a boyfriend
  G                 Eb
She gets one-night stands
  Bm                      E
She’s thinking how did I get here
          G        Eb  Gb
I’m doing all that I can

                  chorus
 Em                D                A

There’s nothing to do and there’s nothing to say
