Intro:
C5
C5 , D5 , F5 , G5



C5        D5
Going once
          F5  G5
Going twice
C5             D5         F5         G5
Sold to the girl who ignored all the advice
Of all the people who knew better
She just stood there
On the front porch
Waiting for her (will) to come and get her


          C5
She was packed
          Eb5
She had a suitcase
          Ab5
Full of noble intentions
           C5
She had a (map)
         Eb5
And a straight face
      Ab5
Hell bent on reinvention
              C5          Eb5
And she was ready for the lonely
     Ab5
She was in it for it (only)


Going once
Going twice
Down the road less taken
With her diary and her WD40
And her Swiss army knife
And her beer
And there was always
someone there to say
Why don't you just stay
And hang your hat
Here

But she was packed
She had a suitcase
Full of bungles and near misses
She was swinging through a jungle of last calls and first kisses
And she was learning about please
About huge humilities


             F5
And then one day she looked around her
       C5
And everything up till then was showing
          F5
And she wondered how did I get here
               C5
Without even knowing where I was going
                F5
And now there's no getting out of this
             C5
And there's no going back
        F5
And it all seems so odd sometimes
         G5
And the odds all seemed stacked


Going once
Going twice
Sold to the girl
Who ignored all the advice
Of all the people who knew better
She just stood there
On the front porch
Waiting for her will
To come and get her

She was packed
She had a suitcase
She had a map
And a straight face
She was ready for the lonely
She was in it forever
She was in it forever
She was in it
She was in it ...........
