Verse 1:
D
I'm not prepared for the future
A
So many things that I just don't know
  Bm
I cut my?hair,?bought a new?shirt, new pair of shoes
                    D
And it's?time to go, I finally found an apartment
A
Signed a lease on a car this month
  Bm                                           D
I can't go back to the storm now, time doesn't slow down

I'm on my own


Chorus:
         D
Guess my childhood is over
                        A
Now I'm taking down the posters

And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster
        D
I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older

         D
Guess my childhood is over
                       A
Now I'm taking down my posters

And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster
        D
I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older


Post-Chorus:
D
Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra
A
Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra
Bm
Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra


Verse 2:
D
Never thought I'd be twenty
    A
And thirty don't seem so far away
  Bm
I know I gotta make a little money then maybe find somebody
           D
To call my own
                         A
Mmm, I'm not ready but I can't go back in time
  Bm
I know it's all out of my control now I know


Chorus:
         D
Guess my childhood is over
                        A
Now I'm taking down the posters

And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster
        D
I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older

         D
Guess my childhood is over
                       A
Now I'm taking down my posters

And I'm telling all my friends we'll get together next October
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster
        D
I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older


Post-Chorus:
D
Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra
A
Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra
Bm
Mmm, ba-ra-ra-ra-ra


Bridge:
         D
Guess my childhood is over
                                      A
One day I'll be buying posters for my kids just like my parents

Different me is never over though
Bm                                                       D
Grew up and soon enough there was a time were just went slower

I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older


Chorus:
         D
Guess my childhood is over
                        A

And I'm putting all my things inside a box next to a toaster
          Bm
That's my closest thing to closure

I can't stop this roller coaster
        D
I'm not ready to get older, I'm not ready to get older

         D
Guess my childhood is over
