24

   Am
My blanket sends you a postcard 
saying
      F
"It's not the same without you 
here."
   D
My pillow would like for you to know
       E
That a piece of it dies whenever you
 go
    Am
And you are the man for me
    F               D             
But I'm not sure if I'm your kind 
  E
of girl

A                     F#m
As I was walking down the street 
today
   D              E
I said "Hello" to everything I saw
          A               F#m
When they asked how I was I would 
say
     D                    E
"I'm good, I'm great, I'm really 
really great."


[Verse]
A                          E     
It's late November and the 
                 D
weather could not have been
                    E
Any better than the weather was 
today
A                            
Yesterday was Thanksgiving and 
  E
tomorrow will be Christmas
     D                       E
If I had a pen and paper I'd write 
to you everyday


A                   F#m          
After December it's hard to 
        D
remember how good life's always 
feeling
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
    E
But then it will be spring
     A                          
If I had a doppelganger I would send
F#m
 her out to see you
    D                             
But now you're in L.A., that city 
E
rubs me the wrong way


[Chorus]
Am
My curtains miss the sound of your 
voice
   F
My sheets are expecting a souvenir
    D
The rug on my floor is slightly 
resentful
    E
But all is forgiven whenever you're 
near
    Am
And you are the man for me
    F               D             
But I'm not sure if I'm your kind 
   E
of girl

A                     F#m
As I was walking down the street 
today
  D               E
I said "Hello" to everything I saw
          A               F#m
When they asked how I was I would 
say
     D                    E
"I'm good, I'm great, I'm really 
really great."


[Verse]
A                        E
At the end of April I'll be 24
    D                      E
And soon after that I will be 25
      A                            
If it still feels like forever 
  E
since the last time that I saw you
       D                 E
When I turn 26 I will do something 
about it

A                    F#m
I would write you an epic album
D                            E
If I could do more than just sing 
and play bass
    A                            
And if I could do more than just 
F#m
walk and run
        D                E
I would drive to you and sing it to 
your face
       A            F#m
When I ask you your opinion you 
would say
      D                      E
"It's good, it's great, it's really 
really great."

[Chorus]

Then I'd say
Am
You are the man for me
    F               D             
But I'm not sure if I'm your kind 
   E
of girl

   Am
My blanket sends you a postcard 
saying
      F
"It's not the same without you 
here."
   D
My pillow would like for you to know
       E
That a piece of it dies whenever you
 go
[Am]
