[Intro]

G D Em D C
 
[Verse 1]

            G          
I'm gettin' older, 
                  D
I think I'm agin' well
                   Em       
I wish someone had told me 
       D             C
I'd be doin' this by myself
                         G    
There's reasons that I'm thankful, 
                           D
there's a lot I'm grateful for
                          Em      
But it's different when a stranger's always 
D               C    
waitin' at your door
          Am                 
Which is ironic 'cause the 
                  D
strangers seem to want me more
              G        D       Em
Than anyone before (Anyone before)
Am                          C
  Too bad they're usually deranged
G                             D
Last week, I realized I crave pity
                 Em 
When I re-tell a story, 
       D                C
I make everything sound worse
                G                
Can't shake the feeling that 
                D
I'm just bad at healing
                     Em       
And maybe that's the reason 
      D                 C
every sentence sounds rehearsed
          Am          
Which is ironic because when 
         D
I wasn't honest
                    G  
I was still bein' ignored 
       D        Em
(Lyin' for attention, 
                       Am
just to get neglection)
            C
Now we're estranged
 
🎸GETTING OLDER TAB

[Chorus]

G                D    Em
 Things I once enjoyed
D              C         G
Just keep me employed now
                   D   Em
Things I'm longing for
D                C
Someday, I'll be bored of
        Am  D  G D Em
It's so weird
              Am               C
That we care so much, until we don't
 
 
[Verse 2]

            G   
I'm gettin' older, 
                    D
I've got more on my shoulders
                Em       
But I'm gettin' better at 
  D                C
admitting when I'm wrong
                 G        
I'm happier than ever, at least, 
            D
that's my endeavor
                 Em   
To keep myself together and 
   D          C
prioritize my pleasure
             Am                  
'Cause to be honest, 

I just wished the word 
  D
I promised
                         G        
Would depend on what I'm givin' 
        D              Em
(Not on his permission)
                   Am       C
(Wasn't my decision) To be abused, mm
 
 
[Chorus]

G                D    Em
 Things I once enjoyed
D              C         G
Just keep me employed now
                   D   Em
Things I'm longing for
D                C
Someday, I'll be bored of
        Am  D  G D Em
It's so weird
              Am               C
That we care so much, until we don't
 
 
[Outro]

    G           
But next week, I hope 
              D
I'm somewhere laughin'
            Em     
For anybody asking, 
  D               C
I promise I'll be fine
              G               
I've had some trauma, 
                    D
did things I didn't wanna
                  Em     
Was too afraid to tell ya, 
    D                 N.C.
but now, I think it's time
