F C
When I grow up
Bb
I will be tall enough to reach the branches
Bbm F
That I need to reach to climb the trees
C Bb
You get to climb when you're grown up


F C
And when I grow up
Bb
I will be smart enough to answer all
Bbm
The questions that you need to know
F C Bb
The answers to before you're grown up


Bbadd9
And when I grow up
F
I will eat sweets everyday
Gm7
On the way to work and I will go
F
To bed late every night


Bbadd9
And I will wake up
F
When the sun comes up and I
Gm7
Will watch cartoons until my eyes go square


C7
And I won't care
A7
Cause I'll be all grown up
Dm C Bbmaj
When I grow up


F
When I grow up
C
When I grow up when I grow up
Bbmaj
I will be strong enough to carry all
Gm7
The heavy things you have to haul
F C Bbadd9
Around with you when you're a grown up


F
And when I grow up
C
When I grow up when I grow up
Bbmaj
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
Gm7
That you have to fight beneath the bed
F C Bbadd9
Each night to be a grown up


Bbadd9
And when I grow up and when I grow up
F
I will have treats evey day
Gm7
And I'll play with things that mum pretends
F
That mums don't think are fun


Bbadd9
And I will wake up and I will wake up
F
When the sun comes up and I
Gm7
Will spend all day just lying in the sun
C7 A7
And I won't burn cause I'll be all grown up
Dm C Bbmaj
When I grow up


F C Bbadd9 Bbm F C Bbadd9


F C
When I grow up
Bb
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
Bbm F
That you have to fight beneath the bed
C Bbadd9
Each night to be a grown up

Bbadd9
When I grow up

Just because you find that life's not fair
F
It doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
Gm7
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
F
Nothing will change

Bbadd9
When I grow up

Just because I find myself in this story
F
It doesn't mean that everything is written for me
Gm7
If I think the ending is fixed already
C
I might as well be saying
A7
I think that it's OK
A A Dm
And that's not right
