Verse 1
[Bm] [E] [G] [D]
When she was 22 the future looked bright
[Bm] [E] [G] [D] [F#]
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] [F#]
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]
Till the man of her dreams comes along, picks her up and puts her over his
[G]
shoulder
[Em] [D] [A]
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] [F#]
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] [F#]
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]
Till the man of her dreams comes along, picks her up and puts her over his
[G]
shoulder
[Em] [D] [A]
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]
Till 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
