"22" by the sweet Lily Allen (all chords relative to capo) [Verse 1]
 Bm          E          G          D
When she was 22 the future looked bright

 Bm          E          G                   D F#
But she's nearly 30 now and she's out every night

 Bm          E               G                    D
I see that look in her face, she's got that look in her eye

 Bm                    E             G       D  F#
She's thinking how did I get here and wondering why
[Chorus]
 Em               D                 A
It's sad but it's true how society says

                    G
Her life is already over

 Em                D                         A
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say

 Em                 D                             A
Till the man of her dreams comes along, picks her up and puts her over his

  G
shoulder

 Em             D                     A
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
[Verse 2]
  Bm          E          G             D
She's got an alright job but it's not a career

  Bm          E                  G          D   F#
Whenever she thinks about it, it brings her to tears

  Bm                    E             
Cause all she wants is a boyfriend

  G                 D
She gets one-night stands

  Bm                      E
She's thinking how did I get here

          G        D  F#
I'm doing all that I can
[Chorus]
 Em                D                A
It's sad but it's true how society says

                    G
Her life is already over

 Em                 D                      A
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say

 Em                  D                          A
Till the man of her dreams comes along, picks her up and puts her over his

    G

 Em                D                 A
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
[Chorus]
 Em                D                A
It's sad but it's true how society says

                     G
Her life is already over

 Em                 D                        A
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say

 Em                  D                          A
Till the man of her dreams comes along, picks her up and puts her over his

 Em              D                   A     Em
