2002 Chords

F          C
The year’s 2002
Am                     F
I'm doing exactly what I wanna do
 F                    C              G
And baby I don't even think about you anymore
 
 
F                     C
Just thought I’d drop you a line
Am                     C
let you know that I was doing fine
F                            C
Cause baby it's been a long long time
                 G
Since you walked out my door
 
 
F                      C
It took me some time I must confess
Am.                             F
For a while there I was feeling less than my best
                                   C
Had to get out of town so I headed out west
           G
Ended up in Seattle
 
F                     C
I thought I’d start a brand new band
Am                      F
Thought I might call it Lonelyland
                        C
But things got a little out of hand
                   G
Ended up hooked on heroin
 
F                    C
So I ended up moving back over to Germany
Am                    F
Living with the folks baggin' groceries
                       C
But the time I had was mostly free
      G
Spent most of it drinking
 
F                 C
I got myself in a jam or two
Am              F
Guess it's what I had to do
                      C
But late at night I’d still think of you
          G
Felt like I was drowning
 
F                         C
'Til I met this girl at a discotheque
Am                      F
She was a dancer, baby, but not what you'd expect
                              C               G
She taught ballet and she was half-Czech half Chinese
 
F                     C
But after she decided not to have the baby
Am                              F
Said she might move back to the mainland maybe
                             C                 G
By then I didn't really care I was half drunk, half crazy
 
F                  C
I got arrested but never convicted
Am                        F
My parents eventually had me evicted
                         C
Tried your number it had been disconnected
G
Guess I should’ve known
 
F                             C
Heard you got married and you moved away
Am                      F
I called your folks but where they would not say
                        C                         G
They said it's probably better that way so I just let it be
 
F                       C
I moved back to Austin 'bout a year ago
Am                              F
Drive a school bus, and I don't drink no more
                                   C                            G
I go out every once in a while and see a show but mostly I just watch TV
 
F                         C
So I don't know where I’m gonna send this letter
Am                            F
I doubt things are ever gonna get much better
                     C.               G
It seems like life's one big whatever anyway
 
F                       C
I just thought I’d drop you a line
Am                F
Lie and say I was doing fine
                        C
'Cause baby it's been a long long time
         G                 C
Since you walked out my door
