Intro: DABmAGADABmAGDABmA
Your little hands wrapped around my finger
GA
And itʼs so quiet in the world tonight
DA
Your little eyelids
BmA
Flutter cause youʼre dreaming
G
So I tuck you in
A
Turn on your favorite night light
GBm
To you, everythingʼs funny
G
You got nothing to regret
A
Iʼd give all I have honey
A
If you could stay like that
DABmA
Oohhh darling donʼt you ever grow up,
G
Donʼt you ever grow up
AD
Just stay this little
ABmA
Ohh darling donʼt you ever grow up,
G
Donʼt you ever grow up
AG
It could stay this simple
Bm
I wonʼt let nobody hurt you
G
Wont let no one break your heart
A
No one will desert you
DABmAGA
Just try to never grow up
DABmAGA
Never grow up
DABmA
Youʼre in the car on the way to the movies
GA
And youʼre mortified your momʼs dropping you off
DABmA
At fourteen, thereʼs just so much you canʼt do
G
And you canʼt wait to move out
A
Someday and call your own shots
GBm
But donʼt make her drop you off around the block
G
Remember that sheʼs getting older too
G
And donʼt lose the way that you dance
A
Around in your PJs getting ready for school
DABmA
Oh darling donʼt you ever grow up,
G
Donʼt you ever grow up
AD
Just stay this little
ABmA
Oh darling donʼt you ever grow up,
G
Donʼt you ever grow up
AG
It could stay this simple
Bm
And no oneʼs ever burned you
G
Nothinʼs ever left you scarred
A
And even though you want to
DABmAGA
Just try to never grow up
GDAG
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood rooOOoom
DA
Memorize what is sounded like what your dad gets home
GD
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
A
And all your little brotherʼs favorite songs
GDA
I just realized everything I had is someday gonna be gone
DABmA
So here I am in my new apartment
GA
In a big city, they just dropped me off
DABmA
Itʼs so much colder than I thought it would be
GAGDA
So I tuck myself in and turn my nightlight on
GDA
Wish Iʼd never grown up
A
I wish Iʼd never grown up
DABmA
Ohhh, I donʼt want to grow up
G
Wish Iʼd never grown up
A
Could still be little
DABmA
Ooohh I donʼt want to grow up
G
Wish Iʼd never grown up
AD
It could still be simple
ABmA
Oh darling donʼt you ever grow up,
G
Donʼt you ever grow up
AD
Just stay this little
ABmA
Oh darling donʼt you ever grow up,
G
Donʼt you ever grow up
AD
It could stay this simple
ABmAG
Ooooh, I wonʼt let nobody hurt you

Wonʼt let no one break your heart
BmAG
And even though you want too

Please try to never grow up
