Chorus:
            C9            G
This is the story of a girl
                       A74                   D
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
          Bm                  C9
While she looks so sad in photographs
   A74
I absolutely love her
          G      G D C9 G D C9
When she smiles

Verse:
Bm                        C9
How many days in the year
    G                            D
She woke up with hope but she only found tears
   Bm                     C9
And I can be so incincere
G                     D
Making her promises never for real
    Bm                            C9
As long as she stands there waiting
G                             D
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
Bm                      C9
How many days disappear
         G                        D
When you look in the mirror so how do you choose

Bridge:
       Em                                  F#
Your clothes never wear as well the next day
     G                  A74
Your hair never falls in quite the same way
    Em                          F#             A74
But you never seem to run out of things to say

Chorus

Verse 2:
Bm                         C9
How many lovers would stay
        G                       D
Just to put up with this every day and all day
Bm                          C9
How did we wind up this way
G                               D
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
   Bm                            C9
As long as we stand here waiting
G                               D
Wearing the clothes of the souls that we choose
Bm                       C9
How do we get there today
             G                          D
When we're walking too far for the price of our shoes
