[Verse 1]
C They tell you while you’re young Am Girls, go out and have your fun Em Then they hunt and slay the ones F Gsus4 G Who actually do it C Criticize the way you fly Am When you’re soaring through the sky Em Shoot you down and then they sigh F Gsus4 G And say, “She looks like she’s been through it” Em C G D Once, I had an empire in a golden age Em C G D I was held up so high, I used to be great Em C G D They used to cheer when they saw my face Em C G D Now, I fear I have fallen from grace
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G F Lord what will become of me Gsus4 G Once I’ve lost my novelty
[Chorus]
F G C I’ve had too much to drink tonight Am And I know it’s sad but this is what I think about F G C And I wake up in the middle of the night Am It’s like I can feel time moving F G How can a person know everything at 18 C Am But nothing at twenty-two? F And will you still want me G C When I’m nothing new? Em C G D And I feel like my castle's crumbling down Em C G D And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground Em C G D Em C And you don't want to know me, I will just let you down D Em C G D You don't wanna know me now
[Verse 2]
C How long will it be cute Am All this crying in my room Em When you can’t blame it on my youth F Gsus4 G And roll your eyes with affection C And my cheeks are growing tired Am From turning red and faking smiles Em F Gsus4 G Are we only biding time till I lose your attention? Am G F And someone else lights up the room Gsus4 G People love an ingénue Em C G D Once, I was the great hope for a dynasty Em C G D Crowds would hang on my words and they trusted me Em C G D Their faith was strong, but I pushed it too far Em C G D I held that grudge 'til it tore me apart Em C G D Power went to my head and I couldn't stop Em C G D Ones I loved tried to help, so I ran them off Em C G D And here I sit alone behind walls of regret Em C G D Falling down like promises that I never kept
[Chorus]
F G C I’ve had too much to drink tonight Am How did I go from growing up to breaking down? F G C And I wake up in the middle of the night Am It’s like I can feel time moving F G How can a person know everything at 18 C Am But nothing at twenty-two? F And will you still want me G When I’m nothing new? Em C G D And I feel like my castle's crumbling down Em C G D And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground Em C G D Em C And you don't want to know me, I will just let you down D C You don't wanna know me now
[Bridge]
F I know someday I’m gonna meet her G F It’s a fever dream G F The kind of radiance you only have at seventeen G F She’ll know the way and then she’ll say she got the map from me G C I’ll say I’m happy for her then I’ll cry myself to sleep C Am Em F Oooh Oooh Oooh Oooh C Em D Ooh, ooh C Em D Ooh, ooh Em C My foes and friends watch my reign end C D I don't know how it could've ended this way Em Smoke billows from my ships in the harbor C People look at me like I'm a monster G Now they're screaming at the palace front gates D Used to chant my name Em Now they're screaming that they hate me Em Never wanted you to hate me
[Chorus]
G D My castle's crumbling down Em C G D And I watch all my bridges burn to the ground Em C G D Em C G And you don't want to know me, I will just let you down D Em C G My castle's crumbling down D Em C G D You don't wanna know me now G C I’ve had too much to drink tonight Am F But I wonder if they’ll miss me once they drive me out G C I wake up (wake up) in the middle of the night Am And I can feel time moving F G How can a person know everything at 18 C Am But nothing at twenty-two? F G And will you still want me C Am Will you still want me F Will you still want me G When I’m nothing new?
