[Intro] C Am Em F C Am Em F [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           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                     G
And say, "She looks like she's been through it"
[Pre-Chorus]
                          Dm
Lord, what will become of me

                    G      
Once I've lost my novelty, yeah
[Chorus]
     F         G            C
Well,  I've had too much to drink tonight

      C/B               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

          C/B   Am
It's like I can feel time movin'

F                      G
 How can a person know everythin' at 18

    C          C/B    Am
But nothing at twenty-two?

             F
And will you still want me

G                     C
When I'm nothing new?
[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           G
And roll your eyes with affection?

                          C
And my cheeks are growin' tired

                            Am
From turnin' red and fakin' smiles

                   Em          F           G
Are we only biding time till I lose your attention?
[Pre-Chorus]
                               Dm
And someone else lights up the room

                G      G/A G/B
People love an ingénue       (That's right)
[Chorus]
F         G            C
  I've had too much to drink tonight

    C/B           Am
How did I go from growing up to breaking down?

     F       G                         C
And I wake up in the middle of the night

          C/B   Am
It's like I can feel time movin'

F                      G
 How can a person know everythin' at 18

    C          C/B    Am
But nothin' at twenty-two?

         F
Will you still want me

G                     C
 When I'm nothing new?
[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
[Interlude]
  Am    Em F
Oh  oh oh

C Am          Em                 
   All right, boys, bring me home
[Chorus]
F         G            C
  I've had too much to drink tonight

      C/B               Am
But I wonder if they'll miss me once they drag me out

     F       G                         C
And I wake up in the middle of the night

    C/B   Am
And I can feel time movin'

F                      G
 How can a person know everythin' at 18

    C          C/B    Am
But nothin' at twenty-two?

         F
Will you still want me

G
 When I'm nothin' new?
[Outro] C Am Em F C Am Em F C
