Getting Older

[Intro] G  D/F#  Em7  G/B  C9

            G                       D/F#
I'm gettin' older, I think I'm agin' well
                   Em7
I wish someone had told me
       G/B            C9
I'd be doin' this by myself
                         G
There's reasons that I'm thankful
                           D/F#
There's a lot I'm grateful for
                          Em7
But it's different when a stranger is
       G/B              C9
Always waitin' at your door

Am
Which is ironic, 'cause the strangers seem to
D
Want me more
               G       F   Em
Than anyone before (anyone before)
Am                      Cm
Too bad they're usually deranged

G                            Bm
Last week, I realized I crave pity
                 Em
When I re-tell a story
      G/B               C
I make everything sound worse

                G
Can't shake the feeling
                      Bm
That I'm just bad at healing
                     Em           G/B
And maybe that's the reason every sentence
          C
Sounds rehearsed

           Am                           D
Which is ironic, because when I wasn't honest
                  G
I was still bein' ignored
       F       Em                     Am
(Lyin' for attention, just to get neglection)
            Cm
Now we're estranged

[Estribillo]

G                 Bm
   Things I once enjoyed
Em  D              C7M
   Just keep me employed now
G                   Bm
   Things I'm longing for
Em  D                C
    Someday, I'll be bored of
        Am  D  G  F  Em   
E|t's| so we-------------ird 

            Am                 Cm
That we care so much, until we don't

[Segunda Parte]

            G
I'm gettin' older
                     Bm
I've got more on my shoulders
                Em        G/B
But I'm gettin' better at admitting
        C
When I'm wrong
                 G
I'm happier than ever
                     Bm
At least, that's my endeavor
                 Em           G/B           C
To keep myself together and prioritize my pleasure

             Am
'Cause to be honest
                          D
I just wished the word I promised
                         G
Would depend on what I'm givin'
        F     Em
(Not on his permission)
               Am
(Wasn't my decision)
       Cm
To be abused, hmm

[Estribillo]

G                 Bm
   Things I once enjoyed
Em  D              C7M
   Just keep me employed now, mm
G                     Bm
   Things I'm longing for
Em  D                C
    Someday, I'll be bored of
        Am  D  G  F  Em   
E|t's| so we-------------ird 

            Am                 Cm
That we care so much, until we don't

[Final]

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