Intro: E E E G#m A B x2
Verse 1:
E B
So this is where you've
C#m G#m A B E
been? A colonial
B C#m
apartment? A white
G#m A B
picket fence? You know
E B
I pictured you determining
C#m G#m A
success behind a diamond
B E
ring But wedlock made
B
you settle kept you
C#m G#m A B
running from the truth
Chorus 1:
F#m C#m
A certain age defines
E B
uncertainty I never
G#/C
could explain So does
C#m
the time create
E/G#
or move to make
B
mistakes these days?
Post Chorus: E G#m A B E x2 A E/G# F#m
Verse 2:
E B
So this is where
C#m G#m A B
we'll stay
E
The steps to your
B C#m
apartment seem such a
G#m A B
long way From the
E B
evenings on your father's
C#m
couch And mornings in
G#m A B E
my father's backseat
B
It was spatial
C#m
exploration
A
seeking seventeen
Chorus 2:
F#m C#m
A certain age defines
E B
a confidence I never
F#m C#m
could explain Some
E
would say it's wisdom
B F#m
I would call it change
C#m
You pulled the calm
E
from your charisma
B
once precociously
G#/C
arranged What made
C#m
the time create
E/G#
and move to make
D A
you blame these days?
Bridge:
E
So where's the reckless
G#/C C#m
lipstick and your south
A E
Philly neighbors? Where
C#m
are the memoirs of
A B
illegal behavior?
E G#/C
Where are the lovesick
C#m A
lines And "no trespassing"
E C#m
signs? The after hours
A B
trading X-rated favors?
E G#/C
Where are our teens?
C#m A
And how were your twenties?
E C#m
Where are the fourties
A B
that hide behind thirty?
E G#/C
Where's the old soul
C#m
And what is this new
D A
person you've become?
E/G# A E/G# A
Well who've you become?
Outro:
A
I closed my eyes and
woke to your morning
E/G# D
routine A boring and
A C E G#m A B
contemporary scene
E B C#m G#m A B
E B
So this is where
C#m G#m A B x2
you've been?
