| Cadd9/G | Fmaj7 | - | Cadd9/G |
| G/D |
[Verse 1]
C
Forgive me, Peter
C/B
My lost fearless leader
Am
In closets like cedar
Cadd9/G Fmaj7
Preserved from when we were just kids
Cadd9/G
Is it somethin' I did?
G C
The goddess of timing
C/B
Once found us beguiling
Am
She said she was trying
Cadd9/G
Peter, was she lying?
Fmaj7 Cadd9/G
My ribs get the feeling she did
[Pre-Chorus]
G 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
Then you were gonna come find me
Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Words from the mouths of babes
G F
Promises oceans deep
Dm C
But never to keep
C/B Am7 Cadd9/G Fmaj7
Oh, never to keep
[Verse 2]
Cadd9/G G C
Are you still a mind reader?
C/B
A natural scene stealer?
Am
I've heard great things, Peter
Cadd9/G Fmaj7
But life was always easier on you
Cadd9/G
Than it was on me
G C
And sometimes it gets me
C/E
When crossing your jet stream
Am Cadd9/G
We both did the best we could do
Fmaj7
Underneath the same moon
Cadd9/G
In different galaxies
[Pre-Chorus]
G Am G F
And I didn't wanna hang around
Am G F
We said 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
Then you were gonna come find me
Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Words from the mouths of babes
G F
Promises oceans deep
Dm C
But never to keep
C/B Am7 Cadd9/G Fmaj7
Never to keep
[Bridge]
Cadd9/G G C
And I won't confess that I waited,
Am
but I let the lamp burn
F
As the men masqueraded,
G
I hoped you'd return
C
With your feet on the ground,
Am
tell me all that you'd learned
F G
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned
C
And you said you'd come and get me,
Am
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
Forgive me, Peter,
G
please know that I tried
Am G
To hold on 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
Said you were gonna grow up
G Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Said you were gonna grow up
G Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Said you were gonna grow up
G
Then you were gonna come find me
Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Words from the mouths of babes
G F
Promises oceans deep
Dm C
But never to keep
