Here it comes.
Guess for years I have tried to calm
What's inside me but something's wrong.
I don't know what to say
To give me away.

The dream's the same:
I'm alone on a moving train.
Wake up here and I can't complain,
And there's the first mistake
I tried not to make.
Next time I'm around that's a habit to break
When I turn 28.
Things are gonna be great at 28.

So don't sit so close.
Can't you see that I'm already yours?
Every day I've been living indoors.
Tell them I was brave.
Tell yourself the same.
Tell everyone that I plan to go straight
When I turn 28.
Things are gonna be great at 28.

They said that I would get used to the change
But I can't keep my eyes on the page.
Shouldn't be writing these songs at my age.
The candle's lit
Waiting patient for me to sit,
But none of last year's clothes still fit,
And I keep waiting for you to enter the room.
I made my wish let me give it to you
When I turn 28.
Things are gonna be great at 28.

At 28, tell everyone they'll just have to wait
When I turn 29.
Things are gonna be fine at 29.

Whip It ♥

[Illennus12]

@ncp4evaa Although obviously that's completely the opposite of the what the song is saying. It's about the constant feeling that just a little more time will make things better, that one of these days we'll actually grow up and feel like an adult and be on top of things. It's the constant but delusional optimism that one day things will be easier.

Don't think she needs that much eyeliner.

I watched Whip it for the second time. Shocked to see a top comment of mine 7 months ago. ♥

@pttika Aw that's so clever. I should do the same on my birthdays. Maybe I should just learn it on piano anyways, if that's the case.

[pttika]

@hellokitty4me No joy as yet... I think my best bet would be to buy the sheet music... Noone seems to have tabulated it / uploaded the chords for this one... :) Shame as I'd love to be able to play it soon! This was my "birthday song" this year (I choose a "theme song at midnight every birthday and listen to it... It was my 28th Birthday this year :) lol)...

[hellokitty4me]

@pttika I was just thinking the same. Let me know if you find them

[pttika]

Does anyone know the chords for this song on guitar?

[hellokitty4me]

@YUPimBrandy 28 is the day she'll be exactly who she's always wanted to be. I always said that at 21 I'd have everything all worked out. That I'd be happy... But I just keep pushing back the date, and always staying the same.

[YUPimBrandy]

I like this song a lot. But.. What is significant about turning 28?

[onlycoolio]
