F C You’ll think I’m naive G Am But these golden years are bronze at best to me F C Wish I could sleep G 'Cause I’m just so tired of who I’m supposed to be F C Live while I’m young G Am Is this all there is in being wild and free? F C I bite my tongue G But my youth is starting to wear on me F C G Oh, I spent years chasing, racing Am F C G G* Praying for a sign that there’s more to this F C G Maybe it’s just for the better Am G F I don’t care if I’m left out C G I tried to feel young forever Am G F But I have it figured now C G Won’t be the best times I can remember Am G F Growing out of my hometown C G C* 'Cause I think being young is such a let down F C When I’m 96 G Am F C I won’t be regretting that I started to live just like this G Am Saying no to what I don’t want to do F C G I won’t be complacent, pacing Am F C G Waiting for my life to catch up to me F* C* G Maybe it’s just for the better Am G F I don’t care if I’m left out C G I tried to feel young forever Am G F But I have it figured now C G Won’t be the best times I can remember Am G F Growing out of my hometown C G 'Cause I think being young is such a let down F No more lying C No more saying that I’m having some fun G There’s no more gnawing doubt of missing out Am That life has been done F C So in with the old, and out with the new G Am 'Cause the best lies ahead beyond my youth F No more lying C No more saying that I’m having some fun G There’s no more gnawing doubt of missing out Am That life has been done F C So in with the old, and out with the new G 'Cause the best lies ahead beyond my youth
