#1.
Am                                F
We had broken up for good just an hour before
      G                  Am
Ba ba ba bom bom bom bom bom.
Am                                       F
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 

cross the floor.
      G                  Am
Ba ba ba bom bom bom bom bom.
Am                                          F
And then the band slowed the tempo when 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          C                      G    Dm  
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
F               C                      G   G7 G
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.

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

CHORUS:
F          C                      G    Dm  
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
F               C                      G   G7 G
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.


(INTERLUDE:) Am F G Am

#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 your past.
      G              Am
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh.

CHORUS:
F          C                      G    Dm  
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
F               C                      G   G7 G
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.

CHORUS:
F          C                      G    Dm  
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
F               C                      G   Gsus4 G
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.

OUTRO:
F                C                    G       Dm     
They just don't..no, they don't...no, no..uh, uh.
F          C                      G    Dm  
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
F          C                      G    Dm  F
They don't write 'em like that anymore..(Fade.)
