[Verse]
Ab                     Gb
Never got lost on this road before
Fm                       Eb
Never saw a scene on the street before
C                       Fm          Eb
Never got chose with the rest of the boys
     Db                         Eb
So I must have needed something more
Ab                   Gb
Always wound up in a cell for the night
Fm                        Eb
Always had faith from the midnight fight
C                       Fm       Eb
Always got caught by a squad car light
Db                   C
Kicking at the smoke machine

[Chorus]
Ab           Cm/G                Fm
Now, I got a little of Veronica, love
               Eb                 Db
The way she is checking me out is enough
Bb                    Eb             C
Somebody's messing my brain, growing pains
Ab            Cm/G                Fm
Ooh, I got a little of Veronica, love
               Eb                 Db
The way she is checking me out is enough
    Bb                     Eb     E
I'm glad to say that she's mine, right down the line
Db                 Ab    Gb   Fm    Ebm    Db    Ab
Growing up and I'm fine

[Verse]
Ab                     Gb
Didn't find luck and I ran out of prayer
Fm                        Eb
Couldn't find much that I wanted to share
C                       Fm       Eb
Looked for a key, but I found despair
Db                      Eb
Must have done something bad
Ab                       Gb
Now I see through to the back of this town
Fm                       Eb
Kind of wear love like a long lost crown
C                       Fm        Eb
Now I take pride in the way I behave
Db                  C
Never seen stalking around


[Chorus]
Ab           Cm/G                Fm
Now, I got a little of Veronica, love

Growing up and I'm fine

[Bridge]
Ab                     Db
Don't bug me 'cause he ain't your man
Ab                    Db
Smell trouble on the back of your hand
Ab                Db
I won't fight, so just back down
             F#                   Ab
Because you know I might change my mind
Ab                   Db
I can't tell you but you know what's wrong
Ab                          Db
You gotta know that's she's gone, gone, gone
Ab                Db
I can tell you're not satisfied
  F#                      Eb
I don't want to dent your pride

[Chorus]
Ab           Cm/G                Fm
