Molly Jane is 23, shes graduating from college today, after five long years 
G                             D/F#                          Em                Cadd9  
Shes ready to be on her own, go out and have a little fun, and not answer to anyone 
Cadd9                         C/B       
Make no mistake about it, she still thinks of him 
    Cadd9                              D 
But right now shes wondering where he is 

             G           D/F# 
He said move on, I cant hang on 
            Em                       Cadd9 
If you wont meet me in the middle on solid ground 
               G              D/F#  
Tell me whats wrong, give me something I can work on 
       Em                                    Cadd9              G 
But if all youve got is you need some time alone, I cant hang on 
 
 
Molly Jane is finding out that life all alone, is highly overrated 
Every guy she goes out with, she compares to him, and she knows that thats not fair 
She wants so bad to call him, shes staring at the phone 
But shes afraid to find out, that hes already gone 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
Cadd9                              G        
She dials up his number like shes done a million times 
     Bb                          G 
But another voice answers on the other end of the line 
           Cadd9                        G 
It was the voice of Becky Martin, Molly Janes ex-best friend 
             Bb                           A 
You see when Molly moved out, Becky moved in
