That wasn't funny
           Am                  Bb         C
But she laughed so hard, she almost cried
                   Dm                   Am
They're countin' months they've been together
         Bb       C
Almost forty-nine
             Dm               Am             Bb      C
He's making fun of how she acted around the holidays
             Dm                  Am                Bb         C

They met in class for metaphysical philosophy
               Dm
He tells his friends I like her
  Am                    Bb           C
'Cause she's so much smarter than me
                Dm                  Am         Bb    C
They're having talks about their futures until 4 AM
              Dm      Am                   Bb C
And I'm happy for them -I'm happy for thеm-

    Bb                      C
But I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Dm                        F          Am
Be that attachеd to the person I'm holdin'

But for now I'm only people watchin'

Next one I choose to trust, I hope I use some common sense
