[Verse 1]
Bm Em Em* The moon went behind a petro-chemical plant A F#m F# I had a feeling I didn't understand Bm I was shivering on crutches Em Em* More dead than alive A F#m F# It was Christmas 1985 Bm Em Em* A It was the night they let me out of the home F#m F# Bm It was the night I caught the bus on my own Em And the city slithered past the windows Em* A F#m F# Like a film that was only just beginning Bm Em Em* I was so excited I nearly missed my stop A F#m F# It was quarter to ten, I was hopelessly lost Bm Em Em* I arrived pretty late, but you didn't seem to mind A F#m F# We are not the first, but we are golden tonight Bm Em Em* Like two little children under the covers A F#m F# Adrift in the night with the universe above us Bm Em Em* And I'll be the dad and you be the mum A F#m F# And we'll make out we know what it is that we've done Bm Em Em* A F#m F# But whatever it is, I know, that it's only just beginning - yeah!
[Chorus]
Bm G Trying so, so hard A F# To act just like a grown up Bm G And it's so, so hard A F# And we're hoping that we don't get shown up N.C. Bm 'Cause everybody wants got to grow up
|(Bm) |Bm
[Verse 2]
Bm Em Em* Finally part of the new generation A F#m F# Finally part of the pub conversation Bm Em Em* And somehow this leads to mature life decisions A F#m F# Like the one that I heard of from Jeremy Sissons Bm Who said he, he moved near the motorway Em Em* 'Cause it was good for commuting A F#m F# And I laughed in his face because I, I thought he was joking Bm Em Em* A But then I, I looked in his eyes and I saw - he was not joking F#m F# No, he was trying
[Chorus]
Bm G Trying so, so hard A F# To act just like a grown up Bm G And it's so, so hard A F# And we're hoping that we don't get shown up N.C. Bm 'Cause everybody's got to grow up Bm Bm Bm Everybody? - Are you sure?
[Bridge]
A A So you move from Camden out to Hackney F# F# And you stress about wrinkles instead of acne Bm G Forget about Tina, get in a bad mood E A A Bm And buy a computer and soon it will be time for some more food (Bm) Em Em* A F# F#m Uuh! Yeah! Bm Em Em* A F# F#m A-aaa Eeeh Oooo!

[Verse 3]
Bm Em And later that first night Em* A F#m I had a dream that a new planet had been discovered F# Bm And through powerful telescopes, we could see the inhabitants Em Em* A And they seemed to be having a really good time F#m F# Bm So we built a rocket - and I was on it Em Em* They put us in a state of suspended animation A F#m For the duration of the journey F# Bm Em Em* And when we landed on this distant planet, we all woke up A And discovered that we'd all lost our memory F#m F# Bm And we looked back at the planet we'd just come from Em Em* A And everyone there seemed to be having a really good time F#m F# But we couldn't return Bm Em Em* Because the rocket no longer had enough fuel left in it A Why am I telling you this story? F#m F# I don't remember
[Verse 4]
Bm Em Em* Why did Mowgli decide to come out of the jungle? A F#m F# To play doctors and nurses and aunties and uncles Bm Em Em* And cavaliers and round heads and tarts and vicars A F#m F# Playing all night to get in somebody's Knickers Bm Em Em* And I am not ageing, no, I am just ripening A F#m F# And life's too short to drink bad wine and that's frightening Bm Em Em* And it's nearly sunset and we haven't had lunch yet A F#m F# And I'm sorry for asking, but are we having fun yet?
[Chorus]
Bm G Trying so, so hard A F# To act just like a grown up Bm G And it's so, so hard A F# And we're hoping that we don't get shown up N.C. Bm 'Cause nobody wants to grow up
[Outro]
Bm Bm Bm One last sunset, one final blaze of glory Bm And I know it's all about the journey Bm Bm Not the final destination, but what if you get travel sick Bm N.C. Before you've even left the station?
