When she was 22 the future looked bright 
 Bm          E          G                   D 
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 
She's thinking how did I get here and wondering why
[Refrain]
 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 
Til the man of her dreams comes along picks her up and puts her over his 
   G 
 shoulder 
 Em             D                     A    D/B   A/C# 
It seems so unlikely in this day and age

  Bm          E          G             D 
She's got an alright job but it's not a career 
  Bm          E                  G          D 
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 
I'm doing all that I can
