D Em G
D Em
All eyes on the calendar
G
Another year I claim of total indifference
D Em
To here the days pile up
G
With decisions to be made, I'm sure all of them were wrong
D Em
Into this song I send myself
G
And with these drinks I plan to collapse
D Em
And forget this wasted year, these wasted years
G
Devoted friends, they disappear
A G A
And I'm sorry about the phone call and needing you
G
Some decisions you don't make
A G A
I guess it's like breathing and not wanting to
G
There are some things you can't fake
D Em G
D Em G
D Em
I guess that it's typical
G
To cling to memories you'll never get back again
D Em
And to sort through old photographs
G
Of a summer long ago or a friend that you used to know
D Em
And there below his frozen face
G
You wrote the name and that ancient date, that ancient date
D Em
And you can't believe that he's really gone
G
When all that's left is a fucking song
A G A
And I'm sorry about the phone call and waking you
G
I know that it's late
A G A
But thank you for talking because I needed to
G
Some things just can't wait
D Em G (Yeah, some things just can't wait)
End on G
