Older Chords by Ben Platt

_ I was walking down 57th Street towards Park
[C#] With the same old song in my same old [D#m] heart
Making plans I'm gonna do when [B] I get older
_ [F#] Passed a gray-haired man and I found his eyes
[C#] It's like he knew my thoughts and he read my mind
[D#m] Saying life is gonna find you [B] when it's supposed to
[D#m] Felt my feet stop short and I turned my [F#] head
Tried to lean into [C#] every word he [G#] said
Then he [B] said
When [F#] you are younger, you wish you're older
Then when you're older, you [C#] wish for time to turn around
Don't [D#m] let your wonder turn [B] into closure
When [F#] you get older, when you [C#] get older
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [D#m] _ _ _ [C#] Have _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ [D#m] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ [F#] I killed my thoughts right before they're prime?
[C#] Have I bit my tongue one too many [D#m] times?
Have I said it all the way I [B] really meant to?
[F#] If I wait till my tomorrow [C#] comes
Is the waiting all I've ever [D#m] done?
Then will [B] I get to
[D#m] Get to know myself and the place I [F#] am
Get to [C#] fall in love with another [G#] man
And [B] understand _
When [F#] you are younger, you wish you're older
Then when you're older, you [C#] wish for time to turn around
Don't let [D#m] your wonder turn [B] into closure
When [F#] you get older, when [C#] you get older

_ [F#] You _ _ [B] wish you're older
When you [D#m] get older
_ You [C#] wish for time to turn around
