E
This growing old is getting old
F#m
I often find myself here thinking
A
About the birds, the boats, and past loves
E
That flew away or started sinking
E
And it's crazy here without you
F#m
I used to think this all was ours
A
We stay up late debate
On how we find our way
E
You say, "It's all up in the stars"
AAEEAAEE
Well, Some nights I rule the world
AAEE
With bar lights and pretty girls
A
But most nights I stay straight
B
And think about my mom, Oh God
E
I miss her so much
E
And there are people on the street
F#m
They're coming up to me
A
And they're telling me
E
That they like what I do now
E
And so I tried my best when I took the fall
F#m
And get back right up and get in your arms
AE
If you're out here why do I miss you so much?
AAEEAAE
I feel like I had it all
AAE
Back before I lost it all
A
Now I just wait for you to talk to me
B
But you won't even look at me, baby
E
And I've been saying that you
F#m
You're always holding onto stars
A
I think they're better from afar
BE
Cause no one is going to save us
E
Oh, and me
F#m
Well I am fading in the dark
A
So don't you ever kiss me
Don't you wish on me
B
Why can't you see
E
That no one's going to save us?
Come on, girl
EF#mABEEF#mAEE
I just need a helping hand
F#m
I close my eyes and think about tomorrow
A
It never came true
B
It came true
E
It never came true
EF#m
And you, you're always holding onto stars
A
You're always holding onto stars
BE
Cause no one is going to save us
EF#m
Oh and you, you're always holding onto stars
A
I think they're better from afar
BE
Because no one is going to save us
EF#m
Oh and me, Well I am fading in the dark
A
So don't you ever kiss me
Don't you wish on me
B
Why can't you see that
E
No one is going to save us.
No one is going to save me.
Now: EF#mABE
No, no, no.
You're always holding onto stars
You're always holding onto stars
You're always holding onto stars
You're always holding onto stars
You're always holding onto stars
You're always holding onto stars
You're always holding onto stars
