---------------------------
INTRO:
D, Dsus2, D, Dsus2 x4
(One, Two, One, Two, three, Four)
---------------------------
VERSE 1:
Well I Gguess I should confess that I am starting to get old.
All the Dlatest music fads all passed me by and left me cold.
All the Akids are talking slang I won’t pGretend to understand.
All my Dfriends are getting married. MortgaAges and pension Dplans.
And it’Gs obvious my angry adolescent days are done.
And I’Dm happy and I’m settled in the person I’ve become.
But that Adoesn’t mean I’m settled up Gand sitting out the game-
A D (let chord ring)
Time may change a lot. But some things they stay the same.
---------------------------
CHORUS:
**(You could either sit this out as in the studio version the guitar
stops playing, or you could play either the chords shown here or the
bass line which is how i play it.)**
Em G A D
G|----------------------------|
D|----------------------------|
A|--------------0----5--------|
E|----0----3------------------|
And I won't sit Edown
G And I Awon't sDhut up
And most of Eall i will Gnot Agrow Dup. x2
---------------------------
BUILD UP INTO VERSE 2:
D, Dsus2, D, Dsus2
---------------------------
VERSE 2:
Oh, MaGturity’s a wrapped-up package deal or so it seems.
DDitching teenage fantasy means ditching all your dreams.
All your Afriends and peers and family solGemnly tell you you will
have to Dgrow up, be an Aadult. Yeah, be Dbored and unfulfilled.
But Gno one’s yet explained to me exactly what’s so great
about Dslaving 50 years away on something that you hate.
About Ameekly shuffling down the path of Gmediocrity.
A D (Let chord ring)
Well if that’s your road then take it but it’s not the road for me.
---------------------------
CHORUS:
**(see notes above)
And I won't sit Edown
G And I Awon't sDhut up
And most of Eall i will Gnot Agrow Dup. x2
---------------------------
BRIDGE:
And if Bmall you ever do with your life is Just AphotosyntheGsise,
then you’ll G/Gbdeserve every hour of your sleepless nights
that you Ewaste wondering Awhen you’re gonnDa die.
---------------------------
Violin Solo Follows the same chord pattern as the Verses:
G,
D,
A, G,
A, D,
---------------------------
BREAKDOWN is the same as the chorus * again, i play the bassline:
E, G, A, D (x2)
And I'll EPlay
G And AYou SingD
The perfect Eway for the Gevening Ato beDgin. (x2)
--------------------------
FINAL CHORUS - play full chords:
(pause) E
And I won't sit down
G And I Awon't sDhut up
And most of Eall i will Gnot Agrow Dup.
And I won't sit Edown
G And I Awon't sDhut up
And most of Eall i will Gnot... gArow... Dup...
