7 Years - Lukas Graham (Cover by Travis Atreo) Chords

_ _ Once I was seven years old, my [F] mama told me,
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be [Am] lonely.
Once I was [C] seven years old, [F] _ _
_ _ [Am] it was [C] a big, big world,
But we thought [F] we were bigger, pushing each other to the limits.
We were [Am] learning quicker, by [C] eleven, smoking herb and drinking [F] burning liquor.
Never rich, so we were out to make that [Am] steady figure.
Once I was [C] eleven years old, my [F] daddy told me,
Go [C] make yourself a wife or you'll be [Am] lonely.
Once I was [C] eleven years old, _ _
_ _ [Am] I always [C] had that dream,
Like my [F] daddy before me.
So I started writing songs, I started [Am] writing stories,
Something [C] about that glory, just always [F] seemed to bore me.
Cause only those I really love will ever [Am] really know me.
Once I was [C] twenty years old, my [F] story got told,
Before the morning sun when life was [Am] lonely.
Once I was [C] twenty years old, [F] _ _
_ _ [Am] I only [C] see my goals,
I don't [F] believe in failure, cause I know the smallest voices,
They can [Am] make it major.
I got my [C] boys with me, at least [F] those in favor,
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll [Am] see you later.
Once I was [C] twenty years old, my [F] story got told,
I was writing about everything I saw [Am] before me.
Once I was [C] twenty years [F] old, _
_ _ [Am] soon we'll be [C] thirty years old,
Our [F] songs have been sold, we've traveled around the world,
And we're still [Am] roaming, soon we'll be [C] thirty years old.
[F] _ _
_ _ [Am] I'm still [C] learning about life, my woman brought [F] children for me,
So I can sing them all my songs and I can [Am] tell them stories.
Most of my [C] boys are with me, some are still out [F] seeking glory,
And some I had to leave behind, my brother I'm still sorry.
Soon I'll be [Am] sixty years old, my [G] daddy got sixty-one,
Remember life and then your life becomes a [F] better one.
I made a man so happy when I wrote a [E] letter once,
I hope my children come and visit once or [F] twice a month.
Soon I'll be [Am] sixty years old, will I [G] think the world is colder,
Will I have a lot of children who can [F] warm me?
Soon I'll be [Am] sixty years old.

_ _ [Am] Soon I'll be [C] sixty years old, will I [F] think the world is colder,
Will I have a lot of children who can [Am] warm me?
Soon I'll be [C] sixty years [F] old. _
_ _ [Am] Once I was [C] seven years old, my [F] mama taught me,
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be [Am] lonely.
Once I was [C] seven years old.
