Standard Key - Capo on 1st version below
Intro
Ab | Eb/G | Fm | Gsus4 G
Verse:
Cm F7 Ab Eb (/D)
When she was 22 the future looked bright
Cm F7 Ab Ab G
But she's nearly 30 now and she's out every night
Cm F7 Ab Eb (/D)
I see that look in her face she's got that look in her eye
Cm F7 Ab Ab G
She's thinking how did I get here and wondering why
Chorus:
Fm Cm Bb
It's sad but it's true how society says
Ab Eb/G
Her life is already over
Fm Eb Bb (Bb6 Bb7 Bb6 Bb)
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
Fm Cm Bb
Til the man of her dreams comes along picks her up
Ab Eb/G
and puts her over his shoulder
Fm Eb Bb Bb6 Bb7 Bb
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
Verse:
She's got an alright job but it's not a career
Whenever she thinks about it, it brings her to tears
Cause all she wants is a boyfriend
She gets one-night stands
She's thinking how did I get here
I'm doing all that I can
Chorus:
