  			D                                A      
I watch you grow away from me in photographs 

A                 G    
And memories like spies 

G                   D  D4   D 
And salt betrays my eyes again 

D                          A 
I started losing sleep and gaining weight 

A                 G   
And wishing I was ten again 

G                  D   D4   D  
So I could be your friend again 
   
Refrão: 

D                              A 
These days we go to waste like wine 

A                      G  
That's turned to turpentine 

G                   D   D4     D     
It's six AM and I'm all messed up 

D                           A  
I didn't mean to waste your time 

A                    G  
So I'll fall back in line 

G                         D  D4   D 
But I'm warning you we're growing up 


VERSO 2:  

D                             A 
I heard you found some pretty words to say 

A                     G 
You found your little game to play 

G                  D   D4  D   
and there's no one allowed in 

D                            A 
Then just when we believe we could be great 

A          G   
Reality it permeates 

G                 D    D4  D  
And conquers from within again 


Refrão: 

D                              A 
These days we go to waste like wine 

A                      G 
That's turned to turpentine 

G                    D  D4     D 
It's six AM and I'm all messed up 

D                           A    
I didn't mean to waste your time 

A                    G  
So I'll fall back in line 

G                         D  D4   D  
But I'm warning you we're growing up 

D 
We're OK I know we're OK
