3 Years Older

A                                  Em
You cross the schoolyard with your head held down
A                              Em
You walk the streets under the breaking cloud
F#m                    B         D
With a hundred futures cascading out
D
It's complicated

A                           Em
You think of love as just a memory
A                             Em
A fog that smothers you, it's hard to breathe
F#m                          B                  D
But when you're on your own, that's when you're free
D#dim              D
You're three years older, and you'll always be now

F              G             A
I can feel you more than you really know
F               G              A
I will love you more than I'll ever show

A                             Em
There was a time when someone seemed to care
A                           Em
A tourist in your bed, you left him there
F#m                          B         D
And found a simple life with no one to share
D
It's not complicated

A                           Em
You make a list of all your big regrets
A                                 Em
And share with people that you've never met
F#m                         B        D
You slowly move towards the medicine chest
D#dim              D
You're three years older, and you'll always be now

F              G             A
I can feel you more than you really know
F               G              A
I will love you more than I'll ever show
F                G   Em                        F
You only have to say, and the world will slip away
     A
From you

F#m                      B
Shame on you for getting older every day
F#m                           B
This place is not for you, so why do you still stay?
C#m             A              B
You're standing with the other fuckers in the rain
C#m      D             C
Life is not some silly cure for your pain
B
You'll have to pay

F              G             A
I can feel you more than you really know
F               G              A
I will love you more than I'll ever show
F                G   Em                        F
You only have to say, and the world will slip away
     A
From you
