[Verse]
-----
G C
It's funny with age, you get to the stage,
D C
your head and your heart aren't on the same page;
G C G
your heart will wait forever, but your skin says you're getting old.
C
Good things come to those who wait,
D C
the lights were up and it was getting late;
G C Dadd4add9 G
she wore my coat 'cos she said that she was cold.
[Pre-chorus]
----------
C G
Funny how quick a coat turns into a ring.
Em D
Looking back now I don't remember a thing.
[First Chorus]
------------
C Dadd4add9 G
We don't talk about the writing on the wall;
G/F# Em Am
somedays we don't talk at all.
D G G7 C
When the lights are dim and my time is free,
Dadd4add9 G
I sometimes think about the good times that I missed,
G/F# Em Am
I sometimes think about the girls I could've kissed,
D G
but I settled for her and she settled for me.
G C D C G C Dadd4add9 G
[Second Verse]
------------
C
It's funny how time just seems to fly,
D C
you blink your eyes and it'll pass you by,
G C G
before too long you're getting on the bus for free.
C
Same old routine, same old blue jeans,
D C G C Dadd4add9 G
same old nightmares, different dreams.
[Pre-chorus]
----------
C G
Funny how quick the days turn into years.
Em D
Funny some people change, some disappear.

We don't talk about the writing on the wall;

hell, somedays we don't talk at all.

When the lights are dim and my time is free,

but I settled for her and she settled for me.
[Bridge]
------
C Em Am
Ain't it funny how you miss someone,

you sat there next to them at home.

Ain't it funny how hard we are to change,
D C
like we're made out of stone.
