Verse 1:
C    G     Am
13 is hard enough
Dm C    G  
So busy growing up
 C                 G    Am     G      F
Now you’re sitting on a secret no one knows
C   G       Am
You see him after school
Dm    C   G  
He barely looks at you
              C    G           Am     G        F
‘Cause you’re both afraid that people might suppose
 
Pre-Chorus:
     F                                 Em
I’ll see you in the mirror when you’re older
    F                                  Gsus4      G
For now just keep your head up on your shoulders
 
Chorus:
C                 G
Life goes too fast
F
Heart breaks in two
C                     G
Tough times don’t last
Gsus4
Tough people do
Am                  G         F
So wipe those tears from your crying eyes
           F            C     Gsus4
‘Cause you only see the light shine in dark times
 
Instrumental -x2-: C G F
 
Verse 2:
C  G    Am
18, you fall in love
Dm    C       G  
You think you found the one
       C         G     Am          G       F
And he calls you up to say there’s someonе else
C     G       Am
Feels like thе world’s in flames
Dm    C      G  
You give yourself the blame
           C       G      Am        G       F
‘Cause the landing wasn’t worth how hard you fell
 
Pre-Chorus:
     F                                 Em
I’ll see you in the mirror when you’re older
    F                                  Gsus4      G
For now just keep your head up on your shoulders
 
Chorus:
C                 G
Life goes too fast
F
Heart breaks in two
C                     G
Tough times don’t last
Gsus4
Tough people do
Am                  G         F
So wipe those tears from your crying eyes
           F            C     Gsus4
‘Cause you only see the light shine in dark times
 
Post-Chorus:
C  G  F                C  G  F
Oh-oh-oh, in dark times
C  G  F                C  G  F
Oh-oh-oh, in dark times
 
Verse 3:
C    G   Am
We’re 27 now
  Dm  C       G  
Don’t have it figured out
       C        G       Am     G       F
But at least no one can say we haven’t grown
C     G       Am
Scars turn to memories
Dm   C       G  
They keep us company
         C       G          Am     G    F      G
But it’s nice to know we’re not in this alone
 
Chorus:
C                 G
Life goes too fast
F
Heart breaks in two
C                     G
Tough times don’t last
Gsus4
Tough people do
Am                  G         F
So wipe those tears from your crying eyes
           F            C     Gsus4
‘Cause you only see the light shine in dark times
    F            C     G                  C
You only see the light shine in dark times
