Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)
Bm E G D
But she's nearly 30 now and she's out every night
Bm E G D
I see that look in her face she's got that look in her eye
Bm E G D
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 D/B A/C#
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
Verse 2:
Bm E G D
She's got an alright job but it's not a career
Bm E G D
Whenever she thinks about it, it brings her to tears
Bm E
Cause all she wants is a boyfriend
G D
She gets one-night stands
Bm E
She's thinking how did I get here
G D
I'm doing all that I can
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 D/B A/C#
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
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 Em
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
