[Verse]
C F C F C
You can come around once a year like a Christmas ghost
C F G
Or hold me down like an anchor, baby; but you can’t do both
C F C F C
I can’t be a father figure, but I can be your friend
C F G
Watch me burn my candle crazy at both ends
[Chorus]
F G C
Nothing’s gonna change here anytime soon
F G C C/B C/G F
Catching fish in the morning; get drunk before noon
F G C
Watching little brown bubbles floating in the spoon
F G C C/B C/G F
Could be soaking in a warm bath, or back in the womb
Fm C
Anytime, anytime soon

C F C F C
Used to wanna be an astronaut, but I was just a kid
C F G
Spent my days in the batting cage where a robot pitched
C F C F C
Once you were my blushing bride; I was your nervous groom
C F G
Now we’re just more comfortable sleeping in separate rooms
[Chorus]
F G C
Nothing’s gonna change here anytime soon
F G C C/B C/G F
Make a bed for the roses, hope that they bloom
F G C
I don’t know if it’s safe, but I just assume
F G C C/B C/G F
I won’t play in the majors or walk on the moon
Fm C
Not anytime, anytime soon

Spin me a tornado, honey, cry me a monsoon
C F G
Let’s just get through the holidays and the terrible twos
C F C F C
Christmas has passed, it’s just yellow snow
C F G
Sometimes you’ve got to hear something that you already know
[Chorus]
F G C
Nothing’s gonna change here anytime soon
F G C C/B C/G F
When it’s all unpredictable, I can still count on you
F G C
Looking for the mailbox with the red balloons
F G C C/B C/G F
I’ll be late to the party, but I'll have an excuse

No one likes breaking bad news,

It’s nothing I’m wanting to do
