[Verse 1]
A
No-one really knows just what they're doing
E
Fake it, try not to let it show
C#7 D D#dim
If you find an ace don't let them read it on your face
A E A
But they don't tell you til you're old enough to know
[Verse 2]
A
Sometimes it feels like the rules are always changin'
D E
The darkness and the light just come and go
C#7 D D#dim
Then before too long you're on the edge of right or wrong
A E A
But they don't tell you til you're old enough to know
[Chorus]
D E
It's mostly uphill going from the cradle to the grave
A D
A junkie needs a needle, a prеacher needs a soul to save
E
Stay somewhеre in the middle, stand behind the things you say
Bm Bm7 E E7
I guess we all just learn it as we go
A E A
They don't tell you til you're old enough to know
[Verse 3]
A
Don't ever trust a grown man with a nickname
D E
You will reap exactly what you sow
C#7 D D#dim
And nothing worth a damn happens after two AM
A E A
But they don't tell you til you're old enough to know
[Chorus]
D E
It's mostly uphill going from the cradle to the grave
A D
A junkie needs a needle, a preacher needs a soul to save
E
Stay somewhere in the middle, stand behind the things you say
Bm E E7
I guess we all just learn it as we go
A E A
They don't tell you til you're old enough to know
A E A
They don't tell you til you're old enough to know
