[E] [C#m]
[A] [B] [G#m] [C#m]
[E] Today I'm gonna write a sad song
Gonna make it really [C#m] long
So [A] that everyone [B] can [G#m] see
That I'm [C#m] pretty unhappy
I [E] wish I wasn't always wrong
I wish it wasn't always [C#m] my fault
The [A] [C#] finger [B] that you're [G#m] pointing
Has knocked [C#m] me on my knees
[F#] And all you need to know
[B] Is I'm so sorry
[G#m] It's not like me
[E] It's maturity [F#] that I'm lacking
[B] So don't [G#m] let go
Just to [C#m] let me know
[F#] That growing up [B] goes slow
I [E] wonder what my mom and dad would say
If I told them that I [C#m] cry each day
[A] It's hard [B] enough to live so [G#m] far away
[C#m] [E] I wish I wasn't always cold
I wish I wasn't [C#m] always alone
[A] When the [B] party's over
[G#m] How will [C#m] I get home?
[F#] And all you need to know
[B] Is I'm so sorry
[G#m] It's not like me
It's [C#m] maturity [F#] that I'm lacking
[B] So [G#m] don't let go
Just [E] to let me know
[F#] That growing up [B] goes slow
[G#]
Before the [C#m] romance had bad effects
You swore you [F#] were my friend
Now I have to [B] start all [C#m] over again
[G#] Cause no one's going to take [C#m] your place
And I'm scared I'll [F#] never save
All the pieces [B] of the love [C#m] we [F#] made
And I'm so [B] sorry
It's not [G#m] like me
[C#] It's [C#m] maturity that [F#] I'm lacking
[B] So [G#m] don't let go
Just to let [C#m] me know
[F#] That I can't slip [B] and you won't [G#m] let go
Just to let [E] me know
That [F#] growing up [B] goes slow
And I'm so sorry
It's [G#m] not like me
[C#m] It's maturity that I'm [F#] lacking
[B] So don't
[G#m] let go
Just [C#m] to let me [E] know
That [F#] growing up [B] goes slow
