Never Grow Up Chords

[Intro]
G D Em D C  D
 
 
[Verse 1]
G                  Em                D
Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
         C               D
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
     G      D       Em                    D
Your little eyelids flutter 'cause you're dreaming
     C                         D
So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite nightlight
C                          Em
To you, everything is funny
                     C
You got nothing to regret
                          D
I'd give all I have, honey
D
If you could stay like that
 
 
[Chorus]
G                      Em7
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
          C                  D
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
G                      Em
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
          C                      D               Cmaj7
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
                        Em
No one's ever burned you
                        C
Nothing's ever left you scarred
                           D
And even though you want to
                       G  Em  Cmaj7
Just try to never grow up
 
 
[Verse 2]
G             D          Em         D
You're in the car on the way to the movies
           C                     D
And you're mortified your mom is dropping you off
   G                         Em             D
At fourteen, there's just so much you can't do
              C                        
And you can't wait to move out someday 
    D
and call your own shots
C                                          Em
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Em
Remember she's getting older, too
C
Don't lose the way that you dance
D
Around in your PJs getting ready for school
 
 
[Chorus]
G                      Em7
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
          C                  D
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
G                      Em
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
          C                      D               C
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
                         Em
Won't let nobody hurt you
                              C
I won't let no one break your heart
C
And no one will desert you
                       G D Em D C
Just try to never grow up
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
                    G D Em D C
Don't you ever grow up
 
 
[Bridge]
                      G                      D
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
C                    G                     D
And memorize what it sounded like whenever I'd get home
             C                       G
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
                D
And all of your brother's favorite songs
G             Em        D
Oh, don't you ever grow up
          C                       D
Don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up
G                      Em7
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
D         C                       D
Don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up
 
 
[Chorus]
G                      Em
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
          C                  D
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
G                      Em
Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up
          C                      D               C
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
                         Em
Won't let nobody hurt you
                              C
I won't let no one break your heart
                          D
And no one will desert you
                       G Em C
Just try to never grow up
 
 
[Outro]
                    G D Em D  C
Don't you ever grow up
