[Primeira Parte]

              Am
That wasn't funny
           Em                  F          G
But she laughed so hard, she almost cried
                   Am                   Em
They're countin' months they've been together
         F       G
Almost forty-nine
             Am               Em             F       G
He's making fun of how she acted around the holidays
             Am                  Em
She wears a ring, but they tell people
            F         G
That they're not engaged
             Am           Em          F     G
They met in class for metaphysical philosophy
               Am
He tells his friends I like her
  Em                    F           G
'Cause she's so much smarter than me
                Am                  Em         F    G
They're having talks about their futures until 4 AM
              Am      Em                   F  G
And I'm happy for them (I'm happy for thеm)

    F                      G
But I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Am                        C          Em
Be that attachеd to the person I'm holdin'
     F                  G                Am
Some day I'll be falling, without caution
                C Em                F
But for now I'm only people watchin'

[Segunda Parte]

              Am
I'm only looking
        Em               F         G
Just to live through you vicariously
            Am             Em
I've never really been in love
    F       G
Not seriously
          Am           Em             F        G
I had a dream about a house behind a picket fence
            Am                Em
Next one I choose to trust, I hope
             F         G
I use some common sense
      Am         Em        F        G
But I cut people out like tags on my clothin'
  Am           Em       F            G
I end up all alone, but I still keep hopin'

I won't be scared to let someone know me

Life feels so monotone, but I still keep hopin'
