D Em G
D Em G

D               Em
All eyes on the calendar
G
Another year I claim of total indifference
D                Em
To here the days pile up
G
With decisions to be made, I'm sure all of them were wrong
  D              Em
Into this song I send myself
    G
And with these drinks I plan to collapse
       D                     Em
And forget this wasted year, these wasted years
G
Devoted friends, they disappear

   A                    G              A
And I'm sorry about the phone call and needing you
                        G
Some decisions you don't make
A                   G                 A
  I guess it's like breathing and not wanting to
                                G
There are some things you can't fake 

D Em G
D Em G

D                  Em
 I guess that it's typical
   G
To cling to memories you'll never get back again
D                        Em
 And to sort through old photographs
     G
Of a summer long ago or a friend that you used to know
    D               Em
And there below his frozen face
    G
You wrote the name and that ancient date, that ancient date
        D                       Em
And you can't believe that he's really gone
     G
When all that's left is a fucking song

    A                   G              A 
And I'm sorry about the phone call and waking you
                 G
I know that it's late
    A             G                        A
But thank you for talking because I needed to
                       G
Some things just can't wait

D Em G (Yeah, some things just can't wait) 

End on G
