[C] [C/B] [Am7] [Gsus4] [Fmaj7] [Fmaj7] [Gsus4] [G]
Verse 1
[C]
Forgive me, Peter
[C/B]
My lost fearless leader
[Am7]
In closets like cedar
[Gsus4] [Fmaj7]
Preserved from when we were just kids
[Gsus4] [G]
Is it something I did?
[C]
The goddess of timing
[C/B]
Once found us beguiling
[Am7]
She said she was trying
[Gsus4]
Peter, was she lying?
[Fmaj7] [Gsus4] [G]
My ribs get the feeling she did
Pre-Chorus
[Am] [G] [F]
And I didn't wanna come down
[Am] [G] [F]
I thought it was just goodbye for now
Chorus
[Dm]
You said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am]
Said you were gonna grow up
[G]
Thеn you were gonna come find mе
[Dm]
Said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am]
Words from the mouths of babes
[G] [F] [Dm]
Promises oceansssss deep
[C] [C/B] [Am7] [Gsus4]
But never to keep
[Fmaj7] [Fmaj7] [Gsus4] [G]
Oh, never to keep
Verse 2
[C]
Are you still a mind reader?
[C/B]
A natural scene stealer?
[Am7]
I've heard great things, Peter
[Gsus4] [Fmaj7]
But life was always easier on you
[Gsus4] [G]
Than it was on me
[C]
And sometimes it gets me
[C/B]
When crossing your jet stream
[Am7] [Gsus4]
We both did the best we could do
[Fmaj7]
Underneath the same moon
[Gsus4] [G]
In different galaxies
Pre-Chorus
[Am] [G] [F]
And I didn't wanna hang around
[Am] [G] [F]
We said it was just goodbye for now

You said you were gonna grow up

Then you were gonna come find me
[Am]
Said you were gonna grow up
[G]
Thеn you were gonna come find mе
[Dm]
Said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am]
Words from the mouths of babes
[G] [F] [Dm]
Promises oceansssss deep
[C] [C/B] [Am7] [Gsus4]
But never to keep
[Fmaj7] [Fmaj7] [Gsus4] [G]
Oh, never to keep
Bridge
[C] [Am]
And I won't confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn
[F] [G]
As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return
[C] [Am]
With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you'd learned
[F] [G]
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned
[C] [Am]
And you said you'd come and get me, but you were twenty-five
[F] [G]
And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired
[C] [Am]
Lost to the "Lost Boys" chapter of your life
[F] [G]
Forgive me, Peter, please know that I tried
[Am] [G]
To hold on (Hold on) to the days (To the days)
[F]
When you were mine
[Am] [G]
But the woman who sits by the window
[F] [Dm]
Has turned out the light
Chorus
[Dm]
You said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am] [G]
Said you were gonna grow up
[Dm]
You said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am] [G]
Said you were gonna grow up
[Dm]
You said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am]
Said you were gonna grow up
[G]
Thеn you were gonna come find mе
[Dm]
Said you were gonna grow up
[F]
Then you were gonna come find me
[Am]
Words from the mouths of babes
