Don't Let The Kids Win

[First Part]

                  E
Don't let the kids win

Just let them lose
                        A
They're not gonna learn anything
                       F#m         
If that's the way you choose to

play
                E
Don't let the kids win

Just let them fall
A
You don't want 'em growing up
                    F#m
Thinking Two-year-olds are good
               B7
At playing basketball

[Second Part]

                    E
Don't let your grandmother die

While you're away
                    A
A cheap trip to Thailand's not

Gonna make up
   F#m                        B7
For never getting to say goodbye
     E
And don't let your brother

Stop thinking you're cool
        A
Yeah, I know, he's got a
                           F#m
Girlfriend now and he's taller

But that don't mean he's stopped
          B7
Looking up to you

Continues after the ad
[Chorus]

 E
And I've got a feeling

That this won't ever change
             F#m
We're gonna keep on getting older
                               B7
It's gonna keep on feeling strange

[Third Part]

                  E
Don't let your friends turn cold

While you burn to green
                        A
When they walk off the stage

Embrace them
                       F#m
And say, "That's the best shit
              B7
I've ever seen"
                    E
And don't let your sister

Walk down the aisle
                      A
Without pulling her close

Saying, "I love you"
           F#m
And, "It's okay if I don't
                 B7
See you for a while"

[Chorus]

 E
And I've got a feeling

That this won't ever change
             F#m
We're gonna keep on getting older
                               B7
It's gonna keep on feeling strange

[Fourth Part]

                   E
And don't let the time go by

Without sitting your mother down
             A
And asking what life was like for 
her
             F#m             B7
Before you came to be around
                   E
And tell her it's okay

If she puts herself first
 A
Us kids, we'll be alright
                    F#m       
If we're not the centre of her 
    B7
universe

[Chorus]

 E
And I've got a feeling

That this won't ever change
             F#m
We're gonna keep on getting older
                               B7
It's gonna keep on feeling strange

[Outro]

 E
And after a late one

I don't know anything
            F#m
Except the more I keep on talking
             B7
The less breath I got left to sing
