Standard (EADGBE)

All eyes on the calendar

Another year I claim of total indifference

To here the days pile up

With decisions to be made, I'm sure all of them were wrong

 Into this song I send myself

 And with these drinks I plan to collapse

 And forget this wasted year, these wasted years

Devoted friends, they disappear

 And I'm sorry about the phone call and needing you

 Some decisions you don't make

I guess it's like breathing and not wanting to

 There are some things you can't fake

I guess that it's typical

 To cling to memories you'll never get back again

And to sort through old photographs

 Of a summer long ago or a friend that you used to know

 And there below his frozen face

 You wrote the name and that ancient date, that ancient date

 And you can't believe that he's really gone

 When all that's left is a fucking song

 And I'm sorry about the phone call and waking you

 I know that it's late

 But thank you for talking because I needed to

 Some things just can't wait

End on G
