[Verse 1]
E B/D#
You used to be my party doll
C#m A
But now you say the party's over
E B/D#
You used to love the honky tonk
C#m A
But now the honky tonkin's over
[Chorus]
B E A B
Now life is a bitter thing my sweet
E A E/G#
Now life is a mystery to me
F#m B
Love's pain I ain't buying
F#m A
Love's strange but I'll keep trying
[Verse 2]
E B/D#
You used to be my party doll
C#m A
But now you want to live in clover
E B/D#
You used to be my number one
C#m A
But now those salad days are over
[Chorus]
B E A B
Times change but the fascination stays
E A E/G#
Love wins but the passion just fades
F#m B
I'll drink to those dancin' days
F#m E/G# A
I'll drink to your crazy ways through a whisky haze
[Bridge]
E B
Face the music, face the truth
C#m A
Chases that fleet sweet bird of youth
E B
Grow up sweetly, grow up strong
C#m A
Hear the heartbeat in my song
[Interlude]
