Intro: D5      D5      x4

D5
She's all by herself at the end of the day
G5
She'd talk to herself but wouldn't know what to say
D5
Wrings her hands and steps out of the bath
G5
The mirror laughs and splits her in half
C5
She looks around the room
D5
At her carpeted tomb
C5
Threw the phone on the floor

A5                  A5
Left the keys in the door

      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
A5            D5
when does life begin

D5      D5      x2

She got in the car and looked up at the stars
And made a wish
She held her breath and considered death

And in the rearview mirror
She looked back on her reflection
She was a long way from she wanted to be
And a long way from perfection

      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      E5      F#5      G5      A5 *
Tell me when
            D5
when does life begin

Bridge:

C5      D5
C5      A5

She chickened out and she called triple-A
And told them the way
After she paid they fixed the car
She got on her way and she drove past the bar

Where no one bought her a drink at
She always though it was 'cause she was too fat
And now she knows those places blow
Or maybe it was her nose

      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      D5      D5      A5
Tell me when 
      E5      F#5      G5      A5 *
Tell me when
            D5
when does life begin
