Older

[Intro]
D
 I'm not prepared for the future
A
 So many things that I just don't know
 Bm
I  cut my hair, bought a new shirt,
            G
new pair of shoes and
It's time to go
 D
I finally found an apartment
A
 Signed a lease on a car this month
 Bm
I  can't go back to the start now,
             G
time doesn't slow down
I'm on my own

[Chorus]
         D
Guess my childhood is over,
now I'm taking down my posters
        A
And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a
toaster
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure,
I can't stop this roller coaster
        G
I'm not ready to get older,
I'm not ready to get older
         D
Guess my childhood is over,
now I'm taking down my posters
        A
And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next
October
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure,
I can't stop this roller coaster
        G
I'm not ready to get older,
I'm not ready to get older

[Post-Chorus]
D
Bum, badadadadada
A
 Bum, badadadadada
Bm                   G
  Bum, badadadadada, dum, dum, dum

[Verse 2]
D
 Never thought I'd be twenty
A
 Now thirty don't seem so far away
  Bm
I know I gotta make a little money,
                G
then maybe find somebody
To call my own
D
 Mmm, I'm not ready, but I
A
 Can't go back in time, I
Bm                        G
  Know it's all out of my control,
now I know

[Chorus]
         D
Guess my childhood is over,
now I'm taking down my posters
        A
And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a
toaster
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure,
I can't stop this roller coaster
        G
I'm not ready to get older,
I'm not ready to get older
         D
Guess my childhood is over,
now I'm taking down my posters
        A
And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next
October
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure,
I can't stop this roller coaster
        G
I'm not ready to get older,
I'm not ready to get older

[Post-Chorus]
D
Bum, badadadadada
A
 Bum, badadadadada
Bm                   G
  Bum, badadadadada, dum, dum, dum

[Chorus]
         D
Guess my childhood is over,
one day I'll be buying posters
       A
For my kids just like my parents did for me,
it's never over
             Bm
They'll grow up and soon enough they'll wish that time
would just move slower
        G
I'm not ready to get older,
I'm not ready to get older
         D
Guess my childhood is over,
now I'm taking down my posters
        A
And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a
toaster
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure,
I can't stop this roller coaster
        G
I'm not ready to get older,
I'm not ready to get older

[Post-Chorus]
    D
Bum, badadadadada
A
 Bum, badadadadada
Bm                   G
  Bum, badadadadada, dum, dum, dum

[Outro]
D
 I'm not prepared for the future
A
 So many things that I just don't know
 Bm
I  cut my hair, bought a new shirt,
            G

It's time to go
