Am7            D7
Moved out to a new city
Gmaj7
June is dawning down on me
    Am7     D7     Gmaj7
And all that I can find's
   Am7            D7
A sickly romance in the air
Bm7               E7
Lovers stroll without a care
   Am7
In sight
        D9
Ooh-ooh-ooh, this can’t be right

Chorus:
           Am7      D7
'Cause the sun's engaged with the sky
       Gmaj7
And my best friend’s found a new guy
    Am7          D7
I'm only getting older
      Bm7          E7         Am7
I've never had a shoulder to cry on
D C#m C         Bm7 E7sus4 E7
Someone to call mine
Am7                     D7                    Gmaj7
Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind

Touched the ocean, fell right in
Stepped outside and burned my skin
My life won't go my way
Bossa nova in my room
Hoped that I'll find someone too to love
Because

Chorus:
The sun's engaged to the sky
And my best friends found a new guy
I'm only getting older
I’ve never had a shoulder to cry on
Someone to call mine
Everybody’s falling in love
And I'm falling behind

Everybody’s falling in love
Everybody's falling in love
Everybody's falling in love but me
(One, two, three!)

Mm, mm-mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm-mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
