Lily Allen - 22

Intro
Ab | Eb/G | Fm | Gsus4 G

Verse:
 Cm     F7  Ab       Eb   (/D)
When she was 22 the future looked bright
 Cm        F7    Ab        Ab G
But she's nearly 30 now and she's out every night
 Cm     F7       Ab            Eb (/D)
I see that look in her face she's got that look in her eye
 Cm            F7   Ab      Ab G
She's thinking how did I get here and wondering why

Chorus:
 Fm        Cm        Bb
It's sad but it's true how society says
          Ab  Eb/G
Her life is already over
 Fm        Eb            Bb (Bb6 Bb7 Bb6 Bb)
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
 Fm        Cm              Bb
Til the man of her dreams comes along picks her up
            Ab    Eb/G
and puts her over his shoulder
 Fm       Eb          Bb Bb6 Bb7 Bb
It seems so unlikely in this day and age

Verse:

She's got an alright job but it's not a career
Whenever she thinks about it, it brings her to tears
Cause all she wants is a boyfriend
She gets one-night stands
She's thinking how did I get here
I'm doing all that I can

Chorus:

It's sad but it's true how society says
Her life is already over
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
Til the man of her dreams comes along picks her up and puts her over his shoulder
It seems so unlikely in this day and age
