the older you get, the less you cry Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]I fell in love at seventeen
Had to make a choice,
either her or my dreams
And [Bm]I fell in love on the road
But [G]that was a long time ago
[D]I fell for the wrong girl
The type to start a fire and
leave you there to [A]burn
And [Bm]I found a way
to stay alive
[G]But something in me that day died

[Verse 2]
How does [G]any[D]one make
it out better?
Someone tell me the words
I should [Asus4]say[A]
How does [Bm]anyone keep it forever?
[G]I barely made it through yesterday

[Verse 3]
I [D]wish I could love like I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
[Bm]It's getting easier to say goodbye
The [G]older you get, the less you cry
I [D]wish I didn't give all of me away
And I'd take back the things
that I wish I didn't say
[Bm]It's getting harder as the days go by
The [G]older you get,
the less you cry
[Asus4]

[Verse 4]
[D]
I don't know what I gotta change
No matter what I do,
it always ends the same
And [Bm]I'm not giving up yet
But [G]I don't got a whole lot left

[Verse 5]
How does [D]anyone make
it out better?
Someone tell me the words I should say
How does [Bm]anyone keep it forever?
I barely [G]made it through yesterday

[Verse 6]
[D]I wish I could love like I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
[Bm]It's getting easier to say goodbye
The [G]older you get, the less you cry
I [D]wish I didn't give all of me away
And I'd take back the things
that I wish I didn't say
[Bm]It's getting harder as the days go by
The [G]older you get, the less you cry

[Verse 7]
Ooh, [D]ah-ah, the the less I cry
[Bm]Ooh, ah-ah, the [G]the less I cry
[Asus4][A]

[Verse 8]
[D]I wish I could love like I used to love
I wish I could hurt like when I was young
[Bm]It's getting easier to say goodbye
The [G]older you get, the less you cry
I wish I [D]didn't give all of
me away
And I'd take back the things
that I wish I didn't say
[Bm]It's getting harder as the days go by
[G]The older you get, the less you cry

[Verse 9]
[D]The older I get,
the less that I'll cry (ooh, ah-ah)
The less that I'll feel,
I'm not gonna cry (the less I cry)
The older I get,
[Bm]the less that I cry [G](ooh, ah-ah)
The less that I feel, I'm not gonna cry (the less I cry) I
[D]wish I could love like I used to love (ooh, ah-ah)
I wish I could hurt like when I was
young [Bm](the less I cry)
It's getting easier to say goodbye
(ooh, ah-ah)
The [G]older you get, the [G]less you cry
