[Intro]
G Am7 G Am7
[Verse]
G Am7 G C
Blacktop days, a younger face in a cartoon phase, a safer place
G Am7 G C
Color my world and I'd be fine. I didn't have to stay inside the lines
[Chorus]
Em Bm7 C G
I couldn't help but look ahead past the monsters beneath my bed
Em G
Ohhh I couldn't wait to get older
Em Bm7 C
I threw my dreams long and far. Past those glow-in-the-dark stars
Em G
Ohhh I couldn't wait to get older
[Verse]
G Am7 G C
High school halls and locker rooms. I gotta fit the mold, at least try to
G Am7 G C
Past midnight, with my friends cause who needs sleep when you're dreaming
[Chorus]
Em Bm7 C
I'd look ahead with a bird's eye view of when I wouldn't have a curfew
Em G
Ohh I couldn't wait to get older
Em Bm7 C G
Could only wreck my father's car. Could only break my mother's heart
Em G
Ohh I couldn't wait to get older
[Bridge]
Bm7 Em C G
But now it seems that life has got the best of me
Bm7 Em C Dadd11
Cause what I seek is always just out of reach
Bm7 Em C Dadd11 C#m7 (Strum once and let ring)
Someday I'll learn to treasure the moment before it's over
G
Maybe when I'm older
[Interlude]
G Am7 G Am7
[Verse]
G Am7 G C
But now I find I wanna turn back time. Give me another try to soak it in
G Am7
When I was young in years and I could cast out fears
G C
I wish I had that here. I want to be that kid again.
[Chorus]
Em Bm7 C G
Waited in line now it's my turn, but so much I have yet to learn
Em G
Ohhh I'm so scared to get older
Em Bm7 C G
Still trying to figure out who I am and how I'm gonna be a better man
Em G
Ohhh I'm so scared to get older
Em G
Ohhh maybe when I'm older
Em G
Ohhh I couldn't wait to get older
