Since I Was Young

Bb
Nobody knows what it means
                                        Eb
You just go and you hope that you'll grow, that's life
  Bb
My whole life philosophy
                        Eb
Oh, it changes with the tide

            Gm                                  F
I was like sixteen smokin' a cigarette for the first time
                          Eb
Tryin' so hard to impress some guy or some girl, I forget
Gm
Twenty-nine, I'd never thought I'd be
F
Twenty-nine, the years just follow me
Eb
Some nights, I still don't understand it

             Bb
Since I was young
                    Eb
I always tried to cover up
               Gm
Who I was and who I love
            F
Then I got older
             Bb
Since I was young
                             Eb
I always thought that twenty-five
                         Gm
Would be the last year of my life
             F
Then I got sober
                Bb
And now I'm more myself than I ever was
        Eb
I'm happier than I ever was
         Gm                                F
And I learned to let someone love me for me
   F               Bb
Oh, since I was young
                  Eb
Always been the weird one out
                     Gm
Fucking up that little town
                    F
And I've been this way
  F             Bb
Since I was young

Bb
Babe, ain't it so bittersweet
                                  Eb
Knowin' all of the beautiful things will go?
    Bb
So I wanna feel this shit deep
                           Eb
Every feeling, every heartbreak, every high and every low

                 Gm                              F
I was like eighteen, City of Angels, drinking codeine
                            Eb
Swear I saw a demon in my backseat
Eb
Oh, those Laurel Canyon nights
           Gm
Now I'm twenty-nine, I never thought I'd be (Oh, no)
 F
Still alive, someone's watchin' out for me (Yeah, yeah)
  Eb
Maybe I'll never understand it

             Bb
Since I was young
                     Eb
I always tried to cover up
               Gm
Who I was and who I love
             F
Then I got older (Oh, I got older)
               Bb
Since I was young
                       Eb
I always thought that twenty-five
                          Gm
Would be the last year of my life
             F
Then I got sober
                 Bb
And now I'm more myself than I ever was
    Eb
I'm happier than I ever was
         Gm                               F
And I learned to let someone love me for me (Oh, oh)
                  Bb
Oh, since I was young (Young, hey, hey)
                  Eb
Always been the weird one out
                  Gm
Fucking up that little town
                   F
And I've been this way
 F               Bb
Since I was young

Bb                  Eb
Woah, oh-oh-oh (Yeah, yeah)
Eb                             Gm
Woah, oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh)
 Gm
Woah, oh-oh-oh
F
Woah, oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh-oh
Bb
Woah, oh-oh-oh
Eb                              Gm
Woah, oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh-oh (Ooh)
F
Woah, oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh
                Bb
Since I was young

  Bb
Me, I'm still me, I'm still me
Who I was, who I've been, who I'll always be

                Bb
Since I was young
Bb
Woah, oh-oh-oh
 Eb                             Gm
Woah, oh-oh-oh, woah, oh-oh-oh-oh (Young, ooh)
 F
Woah, oh-oh-oh
Woah, oh-oh-oh
              Bb
Since I was young

(Since I was young, since I was young, since I was young)
F
Woah, oh-oh-oh
Woah, oh-oh-oh
               Bb
Since I was young
