Verse 1: D I'm not prepared for the future A So many things that I just don't know Bm G I cut my hair, bought a new shirt, new pair of shoes D And it's time to go, I finally found an apartment A Signed a lease on a car this month Bm G I can't go back to the start now, time doesn't slow down I'm on my own Chorus: D Guess my childhood is over Now I'm taking down the posters A And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster Bm That's my closest thing to closure I can't stop this roller coaster G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older D Guess my childhood is over Now I'm taking down my posters A And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October Bm That's my closest thing to closure I can't stop this roller coaster G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Post-Chorus: D Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra A Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra Bm G Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra Verse 2: D Never thought I'd be twenty A And thirty don't seem so far away Bm G I know I gotta make a little money then maybe find somebody To call my own D A Mmm, I'm not ready but I can't go back in time Bm G I know it's all out of my control now I know Chorus: D Guess my childhood is over Now I'm taking down the posters A And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster Bm That's my closest thing to closure I can't stop this roller coaster G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older D Guess my childhood is over Now I'm taking down my posters A And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October Bm That's my closest thing to closure I can't stop this roller coaster G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Post-Chorus: D Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra A Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra Bm G Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra Bridge: D Guess my childhood is over A One day I'll be buying posters for my kids just like my parents Did for me, it's never over Bm They'll grow up and soon enough they'll wish that time would just move slower G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Chorus: D Guess my childhood is over Now I'm taking down the posters A And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster Bm That's my closest thing to closure I can't stop this roller coaster G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older D Guess my childhood is over Now I'm taking down my posters A And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October Bm That's my closest thing to closure I can't stop this roller coaster G I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older Outro: D Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra A Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra Bm G Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra Outro: D
