Getting Older chords by Billie Eilish

Chords with lyrics (Ver. 3)

Intro:

Bb majorBb FF G minorGm Bb majorBb Eb MajorEb


      Bb majorBb            FF
I'm gettin' older, I think I'm agin' well
          G minorGm
I wish someone had told me
    Bb majorBb      Eb MajorEb
I'd be doin' this by myself
             Bb majorBb
There's reasons that I'm thankful
              FF
There's a lot I'm grateful for
             G minorGm
But it's different when a stranger is
    Bb majorBb       Eb MajorEb
Always waitin' at your door

C minorCm
Which is ironic, 'cause the strangers seem to
FF
Want me more
        Bb majorBb   AbAb  G minorGm
Than anyone before (anyone before)
C minorCm           FF
Too bad they're usually deranged

Bb majorBb              DmDm
Last week, I realized I crave pity
         G minorGm
When I re-tell a story
   Bb majorBb        Eb MajorEb
I make everything sound worse

        Bb majorBb
Can't shake the feeling
           DmDm
That I'm just bad at healing
           G minorGm      Bb majorBb
And maybe that's the reason every sentence
     Eb MajorEb
Sounds rehearsed
                    FF
Which is ironic, because when I wasn't honest
         Bb majorBb
I was still bein' ignored
    AbAb    G minorGm           C minorCm
(lyin' for attention, just to get neglection)

      EbmEbm
Now we're estranged

Chorus:

Bb majorBb         DmDm
  Things I once enjoyed
G minorGm FF       Eb7M
  Just keep me employed now
Bb majorBb          DmDm
  Things I'm longing for
G minorGm FF        Eb MajorEb
  Someday, I'll be bored of
    C minorCm FF Bb majorBb AbAb G minorGm
E MajorE|t's| so we-------------ird
      C minorCm         FF
That we care so much, until we don't

Verse:

      Bb majorBb
I'm gettin' older
           FF
I've got more on my shoulders
        G minorGm    Bb majorBb
But I'm gettin' better at admitting
    Eb MajorEb
When I'm wrong
         Bb majorBb
I'm happier than ever
           DmDm
At least, that's my endeavor
         G minorGm      Bb majorBb
To keep myself together and prioritize
  Eb MajorEb
My pleasure
       C minorCm
'Cause to be honest
             FF
I just wished the word I promised
             Bb majorBb
Would depend on what I'm givin'
    AbAb   G minorGm
(not on his permission)
        C minorCm      EbmEbm
(Wasn't my decision) To be abused, hmm

Chorus:

Bb majorBb         DmDm
  Things I once enjoyed
G minorGm FF       Eb7M
  Just keep me employed now, mm
Bb majorBb           DmDm
  Things I'm longing for
G minorGm FF        Eb MajorEb
  Someday, I'll be bored of
    C minorCm FF Bb majorBb AbAb G minorGm
E MajorE|t's| so we-------------ird
      C minorCm         FF
That we care so much, until we don't

Final:

  Bb majorBb               DmDm
But next week, I hope I'm somewhere laughin'
      G minorGm    Bb majorBb       Eb MajorEb
For anybody asking, I promise I'll be fine
       Bb majorBb             DmDm
I've had some trauma, did things I didn't wanna
         G minorGm
Was too afraid to tell ya
  Bb majorBb
