Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
We had broken up for good just an hour before
Ba ba ba bom bom bom bom bom.
Now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing
cross the floor.
Ba ba ba bom bom bom bom bom.
And then the band slowed the tempo when the music
took you down.
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh.
It was the same old song with the melancholy sound
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh.
Chorus
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.
We been living together for a million years.
Ba ba ba 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.
Ba ba ba 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
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.
(INTERLUDE:)
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.
Chorus
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.
Chorus
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
They just don't write 'em like that anymore.
Outro
They just don't..no, they don't...no, no..uh, uh.
They don't write 'em like that anymore.
They don't write 'em like that anymore..(Fade.)
