Ben Platt - Older (Lyrics) chords
Start Jamming...
[F#] I was walking down 57th Street towards Park
[C#] With the same old song in my same old heart
[D#m] Making plans I'm gonna do when I [B] get older
[F#] Passed a gray-haired man and I found his eyes
[C#] It's like he knew my thoughts and he read my mind
[D#m] Saying, life is gonna find you [B] when it's supposed to
[D#m] Felt my feet stop short and I turned my head
[F#] Tried to lean into every word he [G#] said
Then he [B] said
When [F#] you are younger, [B] you wish [F#] you're older
[B] Then when [F#] you're older, you wish [C#] for time to turn around
[D] Don't let [D#m] your wonder [F#] turn [B] into closure
When you [F#] get older, when you [C#] get older
[F#]
[B] Have
[D#m]
[C#] I
[F#]
[B]
[D#m]
[C#]
[F#] killed my thoughts right before their [C#] prime?
Have I bit my tongue one too many times?
[D#m] Have I said it all the way I [B] really meant to?
If [F#] I wait till my tomorrow comes
[C#] Is the waiting all I've ever [D#m] done?
Then will [B] I get to
[F#] [D#m] Get to know myself and the place I am
[F#] Get to fall in love [C#] with another [G#] man And [B] understand
When you [F#] are younger, [B] you wish [F#] you're older
[B] Then when [F#] you're older, you wish [C#] for time to turn around
[D] Don't let [D#m] your wonder [C#] turn [B] into closure
When you [F#] get older, when you [C#] get older

get older
