🎶 Teenage dream

When am [A#]I gonna stop being [Am7]wise beyond my years
And [Em]just start being wise?
When am [A#]I gonna stop being a [Am7]pretty young thing to [Em]guys?
When am [A#]I gonna stop being [Am7]great for my age
And [Em]just start being good?
When will [A#]it stop being cool to be [Am7]quietly [Em]misunderstood?

I'll [D#]blow out the [D]candles, happy [Em]birthday to [A#]me
Got your [D#]whole life [D]ahead of you, you're [Em]only [A#]nineteen
But I [Eb]fear they already got all the best parts [Fbm]of me
And I'm [Eb]sorry that I couldn't always be your [Fm6]teenage [Fbm]dream

When does [A#]wide-eyed affection and [Am7]all good intentions
[Em]Start to not be enough?
When will [A#]everyone have every [Am7]reason to call all [Em]my bluffs?
When are [A#]all my excuses of [Am7]learning my lessons
[Em]Gonna start to feel sad?
Will I [A#]spend all the rest of my [Am7]years wishin' I could [Em]go back?

I'll [D#]blow out the [D]candles, happy [Em]birthday to [A#]me
Got your [D#]whole life [D]ahead of you, you're [Em]only [A#]nineteen
But I [Eb]fear they already got all the best parts [Fbm]of me
And I'm [Eb]sorry that I couldn't always be your [Fm6]teenage [Fbm]dream


[A#]They all say that [D#]it gets better, [Em]it gets better the [Fbm]more you grow
Yeah, [A#]they all say that [D#]it gets better, [Em]it gets better, but [Fbm]what if I don't?
