Intro – B, E, B, E

-Verse 1-
           E                  B       
Let's be honest, you're not flawless
              B                       E
But you're as close as anything I've seen
                 E             B                       
You're not the woman that you envisioned
        B                            E
But your life is not a broken time machine
C#                E
No, it's not that bad
C#             E                 F#
Ya know, it's really not that bad

-Chorus-
B                    E   
A little midnight chardonnay 
                          B
Smooth the edges off the day
                      E
A little taste of maryjane
       F#                  
Makes you feel young again
B                                  E
     All those years around your eyes
                     B
Always take you by surprise
                           F#
You've been living in a dream
     E   F#  B                      
Forever 17

-Verse 2-
(B)         E                 B                           
A reckless lover, a father figure
 B                                    E
You search for both in every man you meet
              E                        B
You're not a mother and sometimes you wonder
           B                              E                       
If a son or daughter just might make you feel complete
    C#                         E
But no, you don't need someone else
C#         E                              F#
No, it's hard enough to learn to love yourself
                                 

-Chorus 2x
B                    E   
A little midnight chardonnay 
                          B
Smooth the edges off the day
                      E
A little taste of maryjane
       F#                  
Makes you feel young again
B                                  E
     All those years around your eyes
                     B
Always take you by surprise
                           F#
You've been living in a dream
     E   F#  B
