Verse:
B5 B5 B5 F#5(IX)
You changed my face
C#5
I think I like it better now
B5 F#5(IX)
It doesn't matter anyhow, cuz that's the way it is.
F#5(IX)
You said hello
C#5
Well where the hell you been?
EB5
I said I feel like I've been off to war
FCB5
and I may never be the same again
(verse)
I made my bed
But now I can't sleep at night
I'm tossin and turnin you know
you know it ain't right
I'd love to beg
See, but I'm just too proud.
And I don't even know what to say
so I'm thinking out loud
Chorus:
BBBC#5
And when you dream 17
F#5
I ain't there, so I don't care
C#5
Cuz in all my dreams, I'm 23
FCB5
And she's the girl right next to me
FCB5
See that girl right next to me
(verse)
I lie in my bed
You're running through my head
Going over and over and over
the things that you said
I'm caught in the trap
I'll run like hell right back to you
Cuz it's over with you and you know it means drinking alone
(chorus)
And when you dream 17,
I ain't there, so I don't care.
Cuz in all my dreams, I'm 23,
And she's the girl right next to me.
See that girl right next to me.
