1st VERSE:


  We had [Am]broken up for good just an [F]hour before


  Uh uh [G]uh uh uh uh uh [Am]uh


  Now I'm [Am]staring at the bodies as they're d[F]ancing 'cross the floor


  Uh uh [G]uh uh uh uh uh [Am]uh


  And then the [Am]band slowed the tempo when the [F]music took you down


  Uh uh [G]uh uh uh uh uh [Am]uh


  It was the [Am]same old song with the [F]melancholy sound


  Uh uh [G]uh uh uh uh uh [Am]uh


CHORUS-1 :


  [F]   [F]   They don't [C]wri[C]te 'em like that any[G]mor[G]e


  [F]   [F]   They just don't [C]wri[C]te 'em like that any[G]more


2nd VERSE:


  We been living together for a million years


  Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh


  But now it feels so strange out in the atmospheres


  Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh


  And then the jukebox plays a song I used to know


  Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh


  And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing so slow


  Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh


CHORUS-2:


  [F]   [F]   They don't [C]wri[C]te 'em like that any[G]mor[G]e


  [F]   [F]   They don't [C]wri[C]te 'em like that any[G]more


(Repeat Intro)


3rd VERSE:


  Now I wind up staring at an empty glass


  Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh


  Cause it's so easy to say that you'll forget your past


  Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh


(Repeat Chorus-1 3x and fade)
