Tonality
Verse:
C
If things were different, we were young
Em
Skinny dipping, having fun, I remember
CEm
Back in 1991, when the story first begun, I remember (I remember)
CEm
All of these shells, holding the things Iʼve done
CEm
I knew myself before I knew anyone
Pre-chorus:
C
And cause we all chew gum, we all have fun with water guns
Am
La da da da da da, da da dum dum dum
C
And we all grew up, sh** got tough
Am
Sh** just wasnʼt simple enough
CEmCEm
Ahh Oh
Chorus:
CAmEm
And whenever the sun came out, we played
(We didnʼt want to get older, we didnʼt want to get older)
CAmEm
We would run on the block all night and day
(We didnʼt want to get older)
Verse:
CEm
What a mistake, saying the way I felt
CEm
I say my name influences myself
Pre-chorus:
C
And cause I started young, I learned it done, I didnʼt run
Am
La da da da da da
CAm
I was scared as f*** and out of touch,
and I was still testing my luck, oh
CEmCEm
Chorus:
CAmEm
And whenever the sun came out, we played
(We didnʼt want to get older, we didnʼt want to get older)
CAmEm
We would run on the block all night and day
(We didnʼt want to get older, we didnʼt want to get older)
CAmEm
And whenever the sun came out, we played
(We didnʼt want to get older, we didnʼt want to get older)
CAmEm
I left myself in the alleyway
Outro:
C
If things were different, we were young
Em
Skinny dipping, having fun, I remember
(I left myself in the alleyway)
CEm
All I wanted would become everything I ever loved, I remember
CEm
(I left myself in the alleyway)
CEm
