E

[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]

E  B/D#  C#m  A  E  B/D#  C#m  A

[Chorus]

B             E                A    B
Now life is a bitter thing my sweet
              E          A   D   F#m
Now life is a mystery to me
                   B       F#m
Love's pain I ain't buying
                     A
Love's strange but I keep trying

[Verse 3]

E
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
E                 B
You used to be my number one
C#m                            A
But now you've vanished in the ozone
