CAPO ON 1ST FRET
 
[Intro]
Cadd9 D Em7 D
Cadd9 D Em7 D
 
[Verse 1]
Cadd9  D              Em7                  D
Hey, I was doing just fine before I met you
            Cadd9                    D           Em7  D
I drank too much and that's an issue but I'm okay
Cadd9  D            Em7                          D
Hey, you tell your friends it was nice to meet them
      Cadd9         D             Em7  D
But I hope I never see them again
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9               D
   I know it breaks your heart
Em7                          D
Moved to the city in a broke down car and
Cadd9             D
   Four years, no calls
Em7                            D
Now you're looking pretty in a hotel bar and
Cadd9  D       Em7  D
I    can't stop
    Cadd9  D       Em7  D
No, I    can't stop
 
[Chorus]
   Cadd9           D          Em7                D
So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
       Cadd9              D
That I know you can't afford
          Em7            D
Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
         Cadd9                   D
Pull the sheets right off the corner
       Em7                  D
Of the mattress that you stole
          Cadd9                   D
From your roommate back in Boulder
         Em7              D
We ain't ever getting older
 
[Post-Chorus]
Cadd9 D Em7 D
 
Cadd9    D         Em7                D
          We ain't ever getting older
 
Cadd9 D Em7 D
 
Cadd9    D         Em7                D
          We ain't ever getting older
 
[Verse 2]
Cadd9  D         Em7                       D
You, look as the good as the day as I met you
     Cadd9          D                 Em7  D
I forget just why I left you, I was insane
Cadd9  D            Em7           D
Stay, and play that Blink-182 song
        Cadd9            D         Em7  D
That we beat to death in Tucson, okay
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9               D
   I know it breaks your heart
Em7                          D
Moved to the city in a broke down car and
Cadd9             D
   Four years, no calls
Em7                            D
Now I'm looking pretty in a hotel bar and
Cadd9  D       Em7  D
I    can't stop
    Cadd9  D       Em7  D
No, I    can't stop
 
[Chorus]
   Cadd9           D          Em7                D
So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
       Cadd9              D
That I know you can't afford
          Em7            D

We ain't ever getting older
 
[Outro]
         Cadd9           D            Em7            D
We ain't ever getting older (we ain't ever getting older)
         Cadd9           D            Em7            D
We ain't ever getting older (we ain't ever getting older)
