All eyes on the calendar
Dadd9 Gm6add9
another year I claim of total indifference
D Em7
to here the days pile up
Dadd9
with decisions to be made
Gm6add9
I’m sure all of them were wrong
D Em7
into this song, I send myself
Dadd9 Gm6add9
and with these drinks I plan to collapse and
D
forget this wasted year
Em7
these wasted years
Dadd9 Gm6add9
well, devoted friends, they disappear and

I’m sorry about the phone call and needing you
G
some decisions you don't make
Dsus2 G Dsus2
I guess it's just like breathing but not wanting to
G
there are some things you can't fake
D, Em, G
yeah, there are some things you can’t fake
well, I guess that it’s typical
to cling to memories you'll never get back again
and to sort through old photographs of a summer long ago
or a friend that you used to know
and there below his frozen face
where you wrote the name and that ancient date
that ancient date and
you can't believe that he’s really gone
when all that's left is a fucking song and
I’m sorry about the phone call and waking you
I know that it is late
but thank you for talking ‘cause I needed to
yeah, some things just can't wait
some things just can't waiiiiiiiiiitttttt(repeat as necessary)
That should give you a clear jist of it. If you need any help, email: henryletham9@gmail.com.
