[Intro] C C/B Am7 Gsus4 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gsus4 G [Verse 1]
C
  Forgive me, Peter

    C/B
My lost fearless leader

     Am7
In closets like cedar

    Gsus4                          Fmaj7
Preserved from when we were just kids

                   Gsus4    G
Is it something I did?

     C
The goddess of timing

      C/B
Once found us beguiling

     Am7
She said she was trying

   Gsus4
Peter, was she lying?

    Fmaj7                      Gsus4  G
My ribs get the feeling she did
[Pre-Chorus]
    Am         G       F
And I didn't wanna come down

    Am            G          F
I thought it was just goodbye 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
Thеn you were gonna come find mе

 Dm
Said you were gonna grow up

 F
Then you were gonna come find me

 Am
Words from the mouths of babes

Promises oceansssss deep

        C           C/B     Am7    Gsus4
But never to keep

              Fmaj7   Fmaj7    Gsus4    G
Oh, never to keep
[Verse 2]
          C
Are you still a mind reader?

  C/B
A natural scene stealer?

      Am7
I've heard great things, Peter

     Gsus4                  Fmaj7
But life was always easier on you

               Gsus4    G
Than it was on me

      C
And sometimes it gets me

       C/B
When crossing your jet stream

    Am7                         Gsus4
We both did the best we could do

                  Fmaj7
Underneath the same moon

                   Gsus4   G
In different galaxies
[Pre-Chorus]
    Am        G        F
And I didn't wanna hang around

    Am          G      F
We said it was just goodbye for now
[Chorus]

Said you were gonna grow up

 G
Thеn you were gonna come find mе

 Dm
Said you were gonna grow up

 F
Then you were gonna come find me

 Am
Words from the mouths of babes

But never to keep

Oh, never to keep
[Bridge]
             C                            Am
And I won't confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn

        F                  G
As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return

           C                           Am
With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you'd learned

        F                         G
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned

          C                              Am
And you said you'd come and get me, but you were twenty-five

          F                      G
And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired

 C                          Am
Lost to the "Lost Boys" chapter of your life

F                           G
Forgive me, Peter, please know that I tried

    Am                       G
To hold on (Hold on) to the days (To the days)

               F
When you were mine

         Am                    G
But the woman 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

Said you were gonna grow up

     Dm
You said you were gonna grow up

 F
Then you were gonna come find me

Said you were gonna grow up

Thеn you were gonna come find mе

 Dm
Said you were gonna grow up

 F
Then you were gonna come find me
