Verse 1:
[C]That was the way, that was the way it [Em]was
When you're [Am]five years old and don't have nowhere else to [F]run
Except [C]into your mother's arms, where she held you so [Em]tight
And you're [Am]scared of the dark so you sleep with your little night [F]light
When you [C]walked up to school and everyone there was your best [Em]friend
When you [Am]learned your numbers and shapes and played [F]pretend
You didn't [C]mind that your hair was a mess, you were so care[Em]free
You didn't [Am]know how cold and cruel this world would [F]one day be
Chorus:
[Dm]We were just so [G]young
We should have [C]known
We [Em]should have [Am]known
That one [Dm]day we'd hate our bodies and we'd [G]orbit around buttons on a [C]phone
We [Em]should have [Am]known
That one [Dm]day we'd pluck our eyebrow hairs and [G]wonder why the cool kids stared at [C]me
Oh [Em]why'd it have to [Am]be
Our [Dm]imaginations have run dry
We [G]hate ourselves and have a nightly [C]cry
And then we [Em]act like we're [Am]fine
It's [Dm]alcohol and bombs and drugs, don't [G]ever let your children grow [C]up
(Oh [Em]oh oh oh oh [Am]oh)
[Cem] Verse 2:We would [C]swing on the swings and jump off and pretend we could [Em]fly
But as [Am]soon as we blinked we grew up and we're junior [F]high
So our [C]dads dropped us off at the park and we stayed out 'till [Em]ten
So the [Am]makeup comes out and we think we need the [F]perfect boyfriend
Chorus:
[Dm]We were just so [G]young
How didn't we [C]know
How [Em]didn't we [Am]know
That we'd be [Dm]independent on our own and [G]lose more friends while traveling down the [C]road
Oh, how [Em]didn't we [Am]know
That there's [Dm]more to life than sleepovers and [G]jocks turn out worse than the science [C]nerds
But [Em]somehow that all gets [Am]blurred
And some re[Dm]lationships they end real fast
And [G]though you want you might never get it [C]back
The doors [Em]close just like [Am]that
It's de[Dm]pression and it's broken love, don't [G]ever let your children grow [C]up
(Oh [Em]oh oh oh oh [Am]oh)
[Cem] (Vocals)Outro:
[Dm]We're no longer [G]young
So now that we [C]know
So [Em]now that we [Am]know
That this [Dm]world could use some turning 'round, if [G]only we could find some common [C]ground
But it's [Em]up to [Am]us
And al[Dm]though at times it gets so rough, you have [G]got to let your children grow up[C]
Oh [Em]oh oh oh oh [Am]oh
Yeah, you have [Dm]got to let your children, [G]got to let your children grow [C]up
