F C Am G/B He's still driving that 1970 hand-me-down truck F C Am G/B And he's still wearing that red and black jersey, waiting for the band to start up F C He's still showing up twenty late, finding hearts and rules to break Am G/B Why would he wanna change when F C Am G/B Every memory still bows to him? C Forgive me Peter G/B My lost fearless leader Am In closets like cedar G preserved from when we F F Were just kids G G Is it something I did? C The goddess of timing G/B Once found us beguiling Am She said she was trying G Peter was she lying? F F My ribs G G Get the feeling she did
[Pre-Chorus]
Am And I didn't G F Wanna come down Am I thought it was G just goodbye F Dm for now
[Chorus]
Dm You said you were gonna grow up, F then you were gonna come find me. Am Said you were gonna grow up, G then you were gonna come find me. Dm Said you were gonna grow up, F then you were gonna come find me. Am Words from the mouths of babes, G F Dm promises, oceans deep. C But never to keep. F C Cause this ain't high school Am G/B F Where all you care about is if the pretty cheerleader thinks you're cool, C Am G/B See her Friday, take her out after the football game F C Am G/B 'Cause it's five years later and you can't get off of the elevator F C That's going up, 'cause you're growing up Am G/B F C Am G/B And the world gets cruel when you're still living in high school
[Verse 2]
C Are you still a mind reader? G/B A natural scene stealer? Am I've heard great things Peter, G F But life was always easier on you F G G than it was on me. F C Am G/B He's still calling that first love, first time, pretty-eyed blonde F C Am G/B And she's still letting it ring 'cause his ring isn't what she wants F C Am G/B 'Cause she traded in prom queen for a big city dream and a slate that's clean, but F C Your heart just don't get it and that's why you can't forget it Am G/B 'Cause you're living like you're seventeen C And sometimes it gets me G/B when crossing our jet stream Am G we both did the best we could do F F underneath the same moon G G in different galaxies
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G F F And I didn't wanna hang around Am G I thought it was just goodbye F F Dm for now.
[Chorus]
Dm You said you were gonna grow up, F then you were gonna come find me. Am Said you were gonna grow up, G then you were gonna come find me. Dm Said you were gonna grow up, F then you were gonna come find me. Am Words from the mouths of babes, G F Dm promises, oceans deep. C But never to keep. F C Cause this ain't high school Am G/B F Where all you care about is if the pretty cheerleader thinks you're cool, C Am G/B See her Friday, take her out after the football game F C Am G/B 'Cause it's five years later and you can't get off of the elevator F C That's going up, 'cause you're growing up Am And the world gets cruel when
[Bridge]
G/B C G You're still living in the hallways, where everybody stopped and stared Am And cared and knew your name G/B C G 'Cause this is the real world that don't know you like that Am G/B You can remember but you can't go back F To high school C And I won't confess that I waited Am but I let the lamp burn F As the men masqueraded G I hoped you'd return C with your feet on the ground Am tell me all that you'd learned F G Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned C And you said you'd come and get me Am But you were 25 F G And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired C Am Lost to the lost boys chapter of your life F Forgive me Peter, G please know that I tried Am to hold on G to the days F F when you were mine Am But the woman G who sits by the window F Dm has turned out the light
[Chorus]
Dm You said you were gonna grow up, F then you were gonna come find me. Am G Said you were gonna grow up. Dm You said you were gonna grow up, F then you were gonna come find me. Am G Said you were gonna grow up. F C Am G/B 'Cause it's five years later and you can't get off of the elevator F C That's going up, 'cause you're growing up Am G/B F C And the world gets cruel when you're still living in high school Am G/B F C Am G/B When you're still living in, five years later F C Am G/B Oh yeah, oh yeaaaeehh F C Am He's still calling that first love, first time, and he hates that he said goodbye G/B F C And she went on with her life, he's still driving the same old back roads Am G/B When did he got so old, where did his life go?
{transition}
