Chorus:
            Csus2            G5
This is the story of a girl
                       A7sus4                   D
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
          Bm                  Csus2
While she looks so sad in photographs
   A7sus4
I absolutely love her
          G5      G5 D Csus2 G5 D Csus2
When she smiles

Verse:
Bm                        Csus2
How many days in the year
    G5                            D 
She woke up with hope but she only found tears
   Bm                     Csus2
And I can be so incincere
G5                     D
Making her promises never for real
    Bm                            Csus2
As long as she stands there waiting
G5                             D
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
Bm                      Csus2
How many days disappear 
         G5                        D
When you look in the mirror so how do you choose

Bridge:
       Em7                 Dadd4/F#
Your clothes never wear as well the next day 
     G5                  A7sus4
Your hair never falls in quite the same way
    Em7              Dadd4/F#             A7sus4
But you never seem to run out of things to say

Chorus
Verse 2:
Bm                         Csus2
How many lovers would stay
        G5                       D 
Just to put up with this every day and all day
Bm                          Csus2  
How did we wind up this way
G5                               D
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
   Bm                            Csus2
As long as we stand here waiting
G5                               D
Wearing the clothes of the souls that we choose
Bm                       Csus2
How do we get there today
             G5                          D 
When we\'re walking too far for the price of our shoes
