Am G F C
when she was 22 the future looked bright
Am G F C
but she’s nearly 30 now and she’s out every night

i see that look in her face she’s got that look in her eye
Am G F C
she’s thinking how did i get here and wondering why
chorus :
F C G
it’s sad but it’s true how society says
Am
her life is already over
F C G
there’s nothing to do and there’s nothing to say
F C G

Am
and puts her over his shoulder
F C G
it seems so unlikely in this day and age

Am G F C
she’s got an alright job but it’s not a career
Am G F C
whenever she thinks about it , it brings her to tears
