Capo: 5 Tuning: E A D G B E
THE COST OF GROWING UP As recorded by Max McNown (2025 release) Capo 5th fret To play without a capo transpose +5 steps. [Intro] G Em7 C [Verse 1]
Ain't it Ginteresting GHow the smallest things stack up Like the Em7Northern Cascade mountains in the Csky And all that Gsuffering Residing in my mind, it alD/F#most Em7killed me The way it Cleft me
[Pre-Chorus]
Seven Gmonths a man I hated GCheated on, broken, betrayed and D/F#All those anEm7xious nights spent wasted Em7Beating on the face I'm blaming But I surCvived and now I look back CAt where I've been CAnd I know that
[Chorus]
DOoh I'm Cchanging I think I'll Gmake it Signs of life Dshowing again DAnd I know DOoh I'll keep Cchanging 'Cause I've seen Emtrees grow Dafter Cfire Crying Amrivers Gmake a Cbluff CAnd you can't love without the loss And that's the cost of growing upG DOoh COoh GOoh DOoh DOoh COoh GOoh DOoh
[Verse 2]
DAin't it Ginteresting GThat diamonds come from coal And steel gets Emsharper the more time spent in the flameC And there's conGsistency GBetween heartbreak and ashes GScraped knees and taxes EmOne step back for every two you Cgain CAnd I know that
[Chorus]
DOoh I'm Cchanging I think I'll Gmake it Signs of life Dshowing again DAnd I know DOoh I'll keep Cchanging 'Cause I've seen Emtrees grow Dafter Cfire Crying Amrivers Gmake a Cbluff CAnd you can't love without the loss And that's the cost of growing upG DOoh COoh GOoh DOoh DOoh COoh GOoh DOoh
[Pre-Chorus]
Seven Gmonths a man I hated GCheated on, broken, betrayed and DAll those Emanxious nights spent wasted EmBeating on the face I'm blaming But I surCvived, and now I see how far I've come and where I've been CAnd I know that
[Chorus]
DOoh I'm Cchanging I think I'll Gmake it Signs of life Dshowing again DAnd I know DOoh I'll keep Cchanging 'Cause I've seen Emtrees grow Dafter Cfire Crying Amrivers Gmake a Cbluff CAnd you can't love without the loss And that's the cost of growing upG
[Outro]
