[C] Forgive me Peter My [G] lost fearless leader
In [Am] closets like cedar Pre[G] served from
When we were just [F] kids is it something I [G] did
The [C] goddess of timing once [G] found us beguiling
She [Am] said she was trying Pe[G] ter was she lying
My [F] ribs get the feeling she [G] did
And [Am] I didn't [G] want to [F] come down I [Am] thought it was [G] just good[F] bye for now
You [Dm] said you were gonna grow up [F] then you were gonna come find me
You [Am] said you were gonna grow up [G] then you were gonna come find me
[Dm] Said you were gonna grow up [F] then you were gonna come find me
[Am] Words from the mouths of babes [G] promises, oceans [F] deep but never to [C] keep
[E7] [Am] [G] ...Oh, never to [F] keep [G]
Are you [C] still a mind reader? A [G] natural scene stealer
I've [Am] heard great things Peter But [G] life was always easier on [F] you than it was on [G] me
And [C] sometimes it gets me when [G] crossing your jet stream
We [Am] both did the best we could [G] do underneath the same [F] moon in different gala[G] xies
And [Am] I didn't [G] want to [F] come down I [Am] thought it was [G] just good[F] bye for now
You [Dm] said you were gonna grow up [F] then you were gonna come find me
You [Am] said you were gonna grow up [G] then you were gonna come find me
[Dm] Said you were gonna grow up [F] then you were gonna come find me
[Am] Words from the mouths of babes [G] promises, oceans [F] deep but never to [C] keep
[E7] [Am] [G] ...Oh, never to [F] keep [G]
And I won't con[C] fess that I waited But I [Am] let the lamp burn
As the [F] men masqueraded I [G] hoped you'd return
With your [C] feet on the ground Tell me [Am] all that you'd learned
Cause [F] love's never lost when pers[G] pective is earned
And you [C] said you'd come and get me but [Am] you were 25
And the [F] shelf life of those fanta[G] sies has expired
[C] Lost to the lost boys chap[Am] ter of your life
[F] Forgive me Peter, please [G] know that I tried
To [Am] hold onto the [G] days when you were [F] mine
But the w[Am] oman who sits by the [G] window has turned out the [F] light
You [F] said you were gonna grow up [Dm] Then you were gonna come find me
You [Am] said you were gonna grow up You [G] said you were gonna grow up
Then [F] you were gonna come find me [Dm] Said you were gonna grow up
You [Am] said you were gonna grow up [G] Then you were gonna come find me
You [F] said you were gonna grow up [Dm] Then you were gonna come find me
You [Am] said you were gonna grow up You [G] said you were gonna grow up
[Am] Words from the mouths of babes [G] promises, oceans [F] deep [Dm]
But never to [C] keep
