[Verse]

C                             F C                    F C
You can come around once a year like a Christmas ghost
C                                             F         G
Or hold me down like an anchor, baby; but you can’t do both 
C                        F C                       F C
I can’t be a father figure, but I can be your friend
C                            F           G
Watch me burn my candle crazy at both ends

[Chorus]
F                G                    C
Nothing’s gonna change here anytime soon
F                     G        C   C/B    C/G     F   
Catching fish in the morning; get drunk before noon
F                    G                          C
Watching little brown bubbles floating in the spoon
F                     G               C C/B C/G  F  
Could be soaking in a warm bath, or back in the womb
Fm                C
Anytime, anytime soon

C                            F C                    F C
Used to wanna be an astronaut, but I was just a kid
C                                          F       G
Spent my days in the batting cage where a robot pitched
C                             F C                        F C
Once you were my blushing bride; I was your nervous groom
C                                    F                G
Now we’re just more comfortable sleeping in separate rooms


[Chorus]
F                G                    C
Nothing’s gonna change here anytime soon
F                     G    C   C/B   C/G     F  
Make a bed for the roses, hope that they bloom
F                G                    C
I don’t know if it’s safe, but I just assume
F                     G        C  C/B C/G   F 
I won’t play in the majors or walk on the moon
Fm                   C
Not anytime, anytime soon

Let’s just get through the holidays and the terrible twos
C                  F C                    F C
Christmas has passed, it’s just yellow snow
C                                             F          G
Sometimes you’ve got to hear something that you already know

When it’s all unpredictable, I can still count on you
F                   G                    C
Looking for the mailbox with the red balloons

I’ll be late to the party, but I'll have an excuse

No one likes breaking bad news, 
Fm                         C
It’s nothing I’m wanting to do
Fm                    C   C G F G C
