Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
(finger picking)
My life is a series of actors changing places
Except there's no backstage and there's no place for me
It's o- kay though, the jokes on the television make me laugh
Remind me that it's okay not to have a backstage
Or a place to hide
Prechorus
But I've got dinner on my plate, got my paycheck yesterday
How great, how cool
And I've got places, I've got friends
I've got Joey, Ross, and Chandler. Then, there's you
Chorus
And now how we like to say that we're in love
Doesn't it seem like that should be enough
But the world will roll their eyes
But I still think, well I still think that we're in love
Repeat intro without finger picking
Verse
Shoes and jackets, purses and tennis rackets
Make their way as they please in those SUV's to the country club
I don't play much, but I do enjoy having the ball in my court
And what's more, I like playing for love
Prechorus
But I've got arms and you've got legs. Together we've made some mistakes
But hey, we're doing well
And I've got reason to believe in the power of you and me
To break this spell
Chorus
And now how we like to say that we're in love
Doesn't it seem like that should be enough
But the world will roll their eyes
But I still think, well I still think that we're in love
Repeat intro without finger picking, then with finger picking
Verse
One more question: How is this one big lesson?
I don't think that there's a quiz, but if there is, I'll be outside
Playing in the yard, swinging on monkey bars, exercising my right
To this recess from this lesson that I've tried
Prechorus
But I've got arms and you've got legs. Together we've made some mistakes
But hey, we're doing well
And I've got reason to believe in the power of you and me
To break this spell
Chorus
And now how we like to say that we're in love
Doesn't it seem like that should be enough
But the world will roll their eyes
But I still think, well I still think that we're in love
Repeat intro without finger picking, then with finger picking
