C# F# G#
First you lose yourself in wonder

D#m G# C#

C# F# G#

C# A#m G#
And hide away your innocence

Now when someone says you look much younger
D#m G# C#
You take that as a compliment
F# C#/F
But don't you think it's rather sad
D#m C#/F
That time is not the greatest adviser
F# C#/F
You learn as much as you forget
D#m G#
So at the end you won't be much wiser
C# F# G#
First they teach you to be modest
C# A#m G#

F# C#/F A#m
Next they will attack you if you're honest
F# G# C#
And then you learn to take it back
