[Verse 1]
Am C
We're getting old, now
F Dm
But I don't feel it
Am C
I say you're beautiful
F Dm
And I still mean it
Am C
And I don't wanna know
F Dm
What old age feels like
Am C
So promise me you won't
F Dm
Give up on this life
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am C
And we'll be busy tryin'
F Dm
While the rest of them are dyin'
[Chorus 1]
F G
Promise me we'll never grow up
Em
I don't wanna let go
Am
I wanna stay young
F G
And even when the wrinkles show up
Em
We'll be laughing, and
A Dm
We can play forever, don't make me face the truth
[Verse 2]
Am C
I think it's obvious
F Dm
That we'll stay happy
Am C
Cause I'm the happiest
F Dm
When you smile at me
Am C
And we won't end the same
F Dm
E broken family
Am C
I'll never walk away
F Dm
Without you with me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am C
And times are getting harder
F Dm
But I'm nothing like my father
[Chorus 2]
F G
Promise me we'll never grow up
Em
I don't wanna fall out
Am
I wanna make love
F G
And even when we can't sew up
Em
We're together, and
A Dm
Happy ever after, don't make me face the truth
[Bridge]
Am G Dm
That I'm dying soon
Am G Dm
That we're dying soon (Don't say goodbye!)
F
We're so much older...
Am Em
All I want is one more life with you! (When did we get so old, so old, so old?)
F G
When did we get so old?
Em
Why did you get so sick?
Am
And how could you die?
[Verse 3]
F G
You promised me you'd never grow up
Em
Now I have to let go
Am
God, I miss you so much!
F G
And even when your heart gave out
Em
I was thinkin' how
A
I won't say goodbye!
F G
You promised me you'd never grow up
Em
But you fucking grew up
Am
God, I miss you so much!
F *MUTE* G
And even when your heart GAVE out (Scream the "GAVE" as hard as you can)
Em
I was thinkin' I'd
A Dm
Love you till forever, and I can't face the truth
[Outro]
Am G Dm
That I died with you
Am G F
That you lied...
(That you died...)
