Start Jamming...
How many people do we have here tonight who are over 30?
How many how many are under 30?
Sure, you are yeah
That's the way it is all over the country.
They all say they're under 30.
That's all right, though
Just remember one one thing all you people under 30 your time is coming
All of us [G] over 30 wants you to know that here's a song for all of us who [C] are on the back
[G] [D]
Silence!
[G] With [C] a wife and [D] son
[G] Then a short five years later [Em] it [A] all comes [D] undone
[G] She's gone back to mama
With [C] the boy by [D] her side
[G] Now I'm wine drunk and running
[D] With them all [G] on my mind
On [C] the backside of 30 [G] and back on my own
[B] An empty apartment [C] don't feel like [G] home
[D]
[C] On the backside of 30
[G] The short side of time
Back on my father
[D] With the wind in [G] every cloud
[C]
[G] [D] [G]
And [C] I just [D] called in sick
[D]
[C#] I shipped [G] work last Friday
[A] To drink this [D] month's drink
[G] And when my friends ask [C] me
[G]
[C] I tell them [D] I'm fine
But [G] my eyes tell a story
And [D] my lies [G] can't hide
I'm [C] on the backside of 30
[G] And back on my own
[B] An empty apartment [C] don't feel like [D] home
[C] On the backside of 30
[G] The short side of time
Back on my father
[D] With the wind in [C]
[G] [Am] [G]
every cloud
