F C Em Am G D/F#

     F                   C           Em
You probably pictured it differently
     Am     G           D/F#
Than rusty VWs all your life
   F                          C          Em
At one point almost married a butcher
   Am         G           D/F#
So solid, so grounded, a craftsman, you thought

     F                    Em
Now solving crosswords in bed
F               Em          F           G
Leave the light on, there’s no one that minds

F                       C          Em
’08 you stopped wearing make-up
       Am         G        D/F#
You’re sick just thinking about Bangladesh
     F                         C                Em
Your green batik dress doesn’t fit you no more
         Am            G            D/F#
That’s a shame cause batik’s coming back

     F                               Em
Now faint-hearted dance moves in the bathroom
F         Em          F      G
You and a mirror, the two of you

F                       C          Em
One year you dated a professor
       Am            G                 D/F#
On the third date he told you he liked peeing games
           F                     C          Em
You always wanted to paint or to emigrate
        Am             G            D/F#
But the hassle and the errands just fucked it all up

F                           Em
Grandma’s still sending you money
    F          Em      F   G
For one decent dinner, no +1

F                  C           Em
Petrarca wrote 300 sonnets
Am        G          D/F#
All for a woman that didn’t exist
       F                         C          Em
On the way home you cried in the taxi
Am         G     D/F#
Love is an awful enemy, my dear

F                  Em
This year you are 33
F            Em      F          G
But when you cry you still look 16
