[Verse 1]
GmJill, it's Amanda, just waving from London
  BbI know that you're going tomorrow, the hardest decision
Eb Bb        Gm    And I've been on the side of the phone for a month
      BbAnd I know you're in hell and you know that I know what you're feeling
Eb Bb F             Bb      Life's such a bitch, isn't it?
Eb          F      Bb         F           Bb   When you have a baby, they throw you a party
F                 Bb       F             Bb   EbAnd then when you die they get together for a cry

[Chorus]
F       BbBut ... no one's gonna celebrate you
GmNo one's gonna bring you cake
    F                              EbAnd no one's gonna shower you with flowers
    BbThe doctor won't congratulate you
GmNo one on that pavement's gonna
F                                 EbShout at you that your heart also matters

                     Eb        BbBut in case it's the morning
