VERSE 1:

       G
Well I guess I should confess that I am starting to get old. 

        D
All the latest music fads all passed me by and left me cold. 

        Am                                        G
All the kids are talking slang I won’t pretend to understand. 

       D                                  A               D
All my friends are getting married, mortgages and pension plans.
 
         G
And it’s obvious my angry adolescent days are done. 

        D
And I’m happy and I’m settled in the person I’ve become. 

         Am                               G
But that doesn’t mean I’m settled up and sitting out the game- 

A                               D                   
Time may change a lot. But some things they stay the same.

VERSE 2:

      G
Oh, maturity’s a wrapped-up package deal or so it seems. 

D
Ditching teenage fantasy means ditching all your dreams. 

         Am                               G
All your friends and peers and family solemnly tell you you will 

        D              A               D
have to grow up, be an adult. Yeah, be bored and unfulfilled. 

    G
But no one’s yet explained to me exactly what’s so great 

      D
about slaving 50 years away on something that you hate. 
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/f/frank-turner/223368.html ]
      Am                                 G
About meekly shuffling down the path of mediocrity. 

        A                                      D   
Well if that’s your road then take it but it’s not the road for me.

              E          G   A    D

BRIDGE:


       Bm                                     A          G
And if all you ever do with your life is Just photosynthesise, 

              G/Gb
then you’ll deserve every hour of your sleepless nights 

         E               A                 D
that you waste wondering when you’re gonna die.
