Intro: GDEmC
Verse:
GD
Every headline, every deadline feels so serious these days
EmC
Every expectation seems too hard to face
GD
All the pressure used to never take ahold of me this way
EmC
Oh, I miss my innocence, it felt so safe
Pre-chorus:
AmDG
ʼCause those monsters under my bed became the ones in my head
DEmC
Now, the grass ainʼt so green and Iʼm not as naive as the old me
Chorus:
G
I used to dream of gеtting older
D
Now, I wish I could Go back
Em
ʼCause all this weight is on my shouldеrs
C
Never used to feel like that
G
Tell me, have you seen the old me?
D
The guy whoʼs always drunk on life
Em
ʼCause Iʼve been trying to find him lately
CG
To see a better future through his eyes
Post-chorus:
D
Oh, oh, oh
Em
Oh, oh, oh-oh
DC
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Verse:
GD
Whereʼs the wide-eyed, confident guy with a grin upon his face?
EmC
Whereʼs the optimist I was at half this age?
GD
I miss my daydreams, miss my preteens, miss my stupid young mistakes
EmG
Though I know that Iʼm still in the good old day-ay-ays
Chorus:
G
I used to dream of gеtting older
D
Now, I wish I could Go back
Em
ʼCause all this weight is on my shouldеrs
C
Never used to feel like that
G
Tell me, have you seen the old me?
D
The guy whoʼs always drunk on life
Em
ʼCause Iʼve been trying to find him lately
CG
To see a better future through his eyes
Post-chorus:
D
Oh, oh, oh
Em
Oh, oh, oh-oh
DC
Oh-oh, oh-oh
