Verse 1

       Am                         F
We had broken up for good just an hour before
      G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
         Am                                F   
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor
      G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
        Am                             F
And the band slowed the tempo and the music took you down
     G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
          Am                          F
It was the same old song with the melancholy sound
     G              Am   G
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh

Chorus

F F              C C                  G G  Dm Dm
     They don't write like that any more...
F F                 C C               G
     They just don't write like that anymore

Verse 2
        Am                       F
We been living together for a million years 
     G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
           Am                         F
But now it feels so strange in the atmosphere
     G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
         Am                        F
And the jukebox plays a song that I used to know
     G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
          Am                             F
And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing so slow
     G              Am   G
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh

Chorus 2

     They don't write like that any more...

     They just don't write like that anymore

Verse 3
       Am                    F
Now I wind up staring at an empty glass
     G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
            Am                         F
Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget the past
     G              Am   G
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh

Chorus 3

     They just don't write like that anymore
