Alec Benjamin - Older (Tour Demo) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jwCYaQyEUc [Verse 1]

^DI'm not prepared for the future ^ASo many things that I just don't know I ^Bmcut my hair, bought a new shirt, new pair o^Gf shoes And it's time to go, I^D finally found an apartment ^ASigned a lease on a car this month I ^Bmcan't go back to the start now, time doesn't ^Gslow down

I'm on my own [Chorus]

Guess my ^Dchildhood is over Now I'm taking down the posters And I'm ^Aputting all my things inside a box next to a toaster That's my ^Bmclosest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster

I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Guess my ^Dchildhood is over

Now I'm taking down my posters

And I'm ^Atelling all my friends we'll get together next October That's my ^Bmclosest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster

I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older

[Post-Chorus]

^D Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra ^A Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra ^Bm Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra ^G

[Verse 2]

^DNever thought I'd be twenty And ^Athirty don't seem so far away I ^Bmknow I gotta make a little money then maybe find some^Gbody

To call my own

^D Mmm, I'm not ready but I ^A can't go back in time I ^Bm know it's all out of my ^Gcontrol now I know

[Chorus]

Guess my ^Dchildhood is over Now I'm taking down the posters And I'm ^Aputting all my things inside a box next to a toaster That's my ^Bmclosest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster

I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Guess my ^Dchildhood is over

Now I'm taking down my posters

And I'm ^Atelling all my friends we'll get together next October That's my ^Bmclosest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster

I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older

[Post-Chorus]

^D Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra ^A Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra ^Bm Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra^G

[Bridge]

Guess my ^Dchildhood is over One day I'll be buying posters for my ^Akids just like my parents

Different me is never over though

Grew ^Bmup and soon enough there was a time were just went slower I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older

[Chorus]

Guess my ^Dchildhood is over Now I'm taking down the posters And I'm ^Aputting all my things inside a box next to a toaster That's my ^Bmclosest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster

I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Guess my ^Dchildhood is over

Now I'm taking down my posters

And I'm ^Atelling all my friends we'll get together next October That's my ^Bmclosest thing to closure

I'm not ^Gready to get older, I'm not ready to get older
