D MajorD E minorEm G+G
D MajorD E minorEm
All eyes on the calendar
G+G
Another year I claim of total indifference
D MajorD E minorEm
To here the days pile up
G+G
With decisions to be made, I'm sure all of them were wrong
D MajorD E minorEm
Into this song I send myself
G+G
And with these drinks I plan to collapse
D MajorD E minorEm
And forget this wasted year, these wasted years
G+G
Devoted friends, they disappear
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA
And I'm sorry about the phone call and needing you
G+G
Some decisions you don't make
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA
I guess it's like breathing and not wanting to
G+G
There are some things you can't fake
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
D MajorD E minorEm G+G
D MajorD E minorEm
I guess that it's typical
G+G
To cling to memories you'll never get back again
D MajorD E minorEm
And to sort through old photographs
G+G
Of a summer long ago or a friend that you used to know
D MajorD E minorEm
And there below his frozen face
G+G
You wrote the name and that ancient date, that ancient date
D MajorD E minorEm
And you can't believe that he's really gone
G+G
When all that's left is a fucking song
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA
And I'm sorry about the phone call and waking you
G+G
I know that it's late
A augmentedA G+G A augmentedA
But thank you for talking because I needed to
G+G
Some things just can't wait
D MajorD E minorEm G+G (Yeah, some things just can't wait)
End on G+G
