D
I told ’em all where to stick it
I left town with a dime to my name
G
Said I’m done with all of my fake friends
Self-righteous pawns in a losing game
D
Got my band and a light that won’t go out
Been burning since the day I was born
G
So I cry just little then I’ll dry my eyes
Em
‘Cause I’m not a little girl no more
CHORUS:
D Bm
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
G Em
And so, if I have to, I’m gonna leave you behind
D Bm
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
G D
And so, if I have to, I’m gonna leave you behind
D
Stood in line for so long, it’s a picket
Something I will never understand
G
I’m too tired of always being mad at the world
Em
Won’t you just admit you don’t care
D
Lady I don’t want your pity
So don’t feel sad for me
G
I got a love I would die for and a song to sing
Em
Maybe we’re both just living out our dreams
CHORUS:
D Bm
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
G Em
And so, if I have to, I’m gonna leave you behind
D Bm
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
G D
And so, if I have to, I’m gonna leave you behind
Bridge:
G
We get along for the most part
Em Bm
Me and reality, the light and the dark
G
And we live alone
In two different worlds
Em
Me and a fantasy,
Bm
And you and your memories
G
But we get along
We get along
Em
For the most part
Bm
We get along
G
Yea, for the most part
We get along
Em
For the most part
Bm
We get along
G
We get along
Em
We get along
