Story Of A Girl Cover Chords

(ver. 1)
Matchbook Romance
  hey, pretty simple song, almost the same as the original. Not too many people have 
this version, but i like it better. the chords are just slightly different. i'm not sure if 
got the names right though. once i figure out the solo i'll post it as a comment or something.

How many days in the year

As long as she stands there waiting

Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes

Your clothes never wear as well the next day

Your hair never falls in quite the same way

But you never seem to run out of things to say

Just to put up with this every day and all day

How did we wind up this way
G5                               D/F
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
   Bm                            Csus4
As long as we stand here waiting
G5                               D/F
Wearing the clothes of the souls that we choose

How do we get there today

When we\'re walking too far for the price of our shoes
