[Verse]
Bb Eb C# Eb
I would never ask you
Bb Eb C# Eb
To do something I wouldn't do
Bb Eb C# Eb
I could never lose you
Bb Eb C# Eb
At least I'd never choose to
[Pre-chorus]
Bb Eb C# Eb
All your friends are sober, yeah we're getting older
Bb Eb C# Eb
Going out's a drag now, all my spots have closed
Bb Eb C# Eb
And we can fantasize without much of a mess
Bb Eb C# Eb
And making love is fine, but all I want is to forget
Bb
How old I am...
[Chorus]
Bb
(Can't remember anything else)
C# Ab
Nothing good happens past 2-A-M
Bb
I put the ball in your court, text me back
C# Ab
I want a full report, I want cash in hand
Bb
I'm still waiting for my man (Has he even left the house?)
C# Ab
Short a couple dollars but I think he'll understand
Bb C# Ab
I put my best dress on get back in bed, nothing good happens past 2-A-M
[Verse]
Bb Eb C# Eb
Can't turn back it's too late
Bb Eb C# Eb
I saw you drink the Kool-Aid
Bb Eb C# Eb
But I don't want no undue
Bb Eb C# Eb
Attention coming from you
[Pre-chorus]
Bb Eb C# Eb
All your friends are sober, yeah we're getting older
Bb Eb C# Eb
Staying in at home, it's good enough for both us
Bb Eb C# Eb
And we can fantasize without hearing I told ya
Bb Eb C# Eb
Making love is fine, but all I want is to forget
Bb
How old I am
[Chorus]
Bb
(Can't remember anything else)
C# Ab
Nothing good happens past 2-A-M
Bb
I put the ball in your court, text me back
C# Ab
I want a full report, I want cash in hand
Bb
I'm still waiting for my man (Has he even left the house?)
C# Ab
Short a couple dollars but I think he'll understand
Bb
I put my best dress on get back in bed, nothing good happens past 2-A-M
[Bridge]
C# Ebm F#
And what I thought was possible don't seem possible no more
C# Ebm F#
I struggle to keep up with you
C# Ebm F#
And what I thought was possible don't seem possible no more
C# Ebm F#
I never could keep up with you
Ab Bb
Can we forget how old I am?
[Chorus to end]
Bb
(Can't remember anything else)
C# Ab
Nothing good happens past 2-A-M
Bb
I put the ball in your court, text me back
C# Ab
I want a full report, I want cash in hand
Bb
I'm still waiting for my man (Has he even left the house?)
C# Ab
Short a couple dollars but I think he'll understand
Bb C# Ab
I put my best dress on get back in bed, nothing good happens past 2-A-M
