When he calls you

Jack's been waiting

Why don't you stay home tonight?

If you painted mine?

D
The clock it ticks
             G
I have to get older
D
When I wake up
                A
And the dream is over
D
Packed away
          G
My life moving slower
D          A           G
Oh I'd hate to get any older
D           A         G
Oh I'd hate to get any older

           D
Do you wanna be
(The clock it ticks
I have to get older)
          G
Like your father?
              D
The older you get
(When I wake up and the dream is over)
                     G
Your head's gettin' hotter
           D
Pick up the phone
(Packed away, my life moving slower)
            G
When he calls you
        D       A          G
Oh I'd hate to get any older
        D       A         G
Oh I'd hate to get any older

Outro:
D                 G
I always knew I'd let you go
Em             G
Have to see you die to grow
D                           G
Don't you let them tell you who you are
Em                     G
Hope that as you keep collecting scars
         D    A      Em     G
You never know my pain
