As recorded by Everclear (From the 1995 Album SPARKLE AND FADE) [Intro] G [Verse 1]
G                              D
We have been sleeping with the lights on

E                G
Just about every night

           E           D        A
Because we were afraid what the dark might bring

               D           G
I know, I know it's just a childish fear

                                 D
That grows and grows wild in the middle of me
[Verse 2]
G
I'm gonna get a new tattoo

G
Black and stretching around my arm

                    D
Like a life that is visible and real

G
I know, I know it's stupid and immature

G
I just want to give shape to the face

                                  Eb
That twists inside both you and me
[Bridge]
               G
Breathing fire doesn't look good on a resume

Eb                            Eb
Neither does anything else we do

                          G
Got to get ready for the real world

G
Yeah yeah, we got to grow up
[Verse 3]
G                  A
You know I like to die for a while

Bm              A
Everyday in the afternoon

G                 A             Bm             C
I like to let the arms of a bar wrap around me tight

    G          A
I'm just gonna sprawl in the front booth

Bm              A
Big drink above my head

G              A            Bm                 C
Cross-eyed and smiling as I watch the world go twisting by
[Verse 4]
G               A
I don't want to die with you

Bm             C
Or live in the same dark room

G               A                  Bm            C
I don't want to see your bloodshot eyes no more, no more

G              A
I just want to take this girl

Bm                C
All curls and big brown eyes

G           A                 Bm           C          
Man I can't shake the pain of wanting her, needing her
[Bridge]
Eb         G              Eb
I know the secret of your soul

                            D
And I just don't want to know

                         G  A G
Yeah, man we got to grow up

A                   G
Yeah, we gotta grow up

                    A
Yeah, we gotta grow up

                    G
Yeah, we gotta grow up

C              G
Yeah, we gotta grow up
[Interlude]
            C
Na, na, na, na

G       D       C
Na, na, na, na, na
