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:
 
It's sad but it's true how society says
Her life is already over
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
Til the man of her dreams comes along picks her up and puts her over his shoulder
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
