Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I was walking down
57th street towards Park
With the [A]same old song in
my same old heart
Making [Bm]plans I'm gonna do
when I get [G]older
Passed a [D]gray- haired man
and I found his eyes
It's like he [A]knew my thoughts
and he read my mind
Say[Bm]ing life is gonna find you
when it's [G]supposed to

[Verse 2]
Felt my [Bm]feet stop short
and I turned my head
Tried to [D]lean into every word he [E]said
Then he [G]said

[Verse 3]
When you are [D]younger
You'll [G]wish you're [D]older
Then [G]when you're [D]older
You'll wish for [A]time to turn around
Don't let your [Bm]wonder
turn into [G]closure
When [A]you get [D]older
When you [A]get [D]old[G]er
[Bm][A][D]
[G]
[Bm]

[Verse 4]
[A]
Have I [D]killed my thoughts
right before their prime?
Have I [A]bit my tongue one
too many times?
Have I [Bm]said it all the way I really [G]meant to?
If I [D]wait 'til my tomorrow comes
Is the [A]waiting all I've ever
[Bm]done?
And will I [G]get to

[Verse 5]
Get to [Bm]know myself in the place I am
Get to [A]fall in love with another man
[C#m]and un[E]derstand[G]

[Verse 6]
When you are [D]younger
You'll [G]wish you're [D]older
Then [G]when you're [D]older
You'll wish for [A]time to turn around
Don't [F#]let your w[Bm]onder turn i[D]nto [G]closure
When you get [D]older
When you [A]get [D]older[G]
[Bm][A][D]
[G]
[Bm]

[Verse 7]
[A]
When you are [D]younger
You'll wish you're [G]older
When you get [Bm]older
You'll wish for [A]time to turn around
Don't let your [D]wonder turn into [G]closure
When you get [Bm]older
When you get [A]older

[Outro 1]
