[Intro]
C C/B Am7 Gsus4 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gsus4 G
[Verse 1]
C
Forgive me, Peter
C/B
My lost fearless leader
Am7
In closets like cedar
Gsus4 Fmaj7
Preserved from when we were just kids
Gsus4 G
Is it something I did?
C
The goddess of timing
C/B
Once found us beguiling
Am7
She said she was trying
Gsus4
Peter, was she lying?
Fmaj7 Gsus4 G
My ribs get the feeling she did
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G F
And I didn't wanna come down
Am G F
I thought it was just goodbye for now
[Chorus]
Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Said you were gonna grow up
G
Then you were gonna come find me
Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Words from the mouths of babes
G F Dm
Promises oceans deep
C C/B Am7 Gsus4
But never to keep
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gsus4 G
Oh, never to keep
[Verse 2]
C
Are you still a mind reader?
C/B
A natural scene stealer?
Am7
I've heard great things, Peter
Gsus4 Fmaj7
But life was always easier on you
Gsus4 G
Than it was on me
C
And sometimes it gets me
C/B
When crossing your jet stream
Am7 Gsus4
We both did the best we could do
Fmaj7
Underneath the same moon
Gsus4 G
In different galaxies
[Pre-Chorus]
Am G F
And I didn't wanna hang around
Am G F
We said it was just goodbye for now
[Chorus]
Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Said you were gonna grow up
G
Then you were gonna come find me
Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Words from the mouths of babes
G F Dm
Promises oceans deep
C C/B Am7 Gsus4
But never to keep
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Gsus4 G
Oh, never to keep
[Bridge]
C Am
And I won't confess that I waited but I let the lamp burn
F G
As the men masqueraded, I hoped you'd return
C Am
With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you'd learned
F G
'Cause love's never lost when perspective is earned
C Am
And you said you'd come and get me, but you were twenty-five
F G
And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired
C Am
Lost to the ""Lost Boys"" chapter of your life
F G
Forgive me, Peter, please know that I tried
Am G
To hold on (Hold on) to the days (To the days)
F
When you were mine
Am G
But the woman who sits by the window
F Dm
Has turned out the light
[Chorus]
Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am G
Said you were gonna grow up
Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am G
Said you were gonna grow up
Dm
You said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Said you were gonna grow up
G
Then you were gonna come find me
Dm
Said you were gonna grow up
F
Then you were gonna come find me
Am
Words from the mouths of babes
G F F Dm
Promises oceans deep
C
