Capo 1

Intro:
A minorAm E7E7 E7E7 A minorAm

Verse 1:
A minorAm               E7E7
Gotta watch your footing, gotta watch your speed
               A minorAm
Gotta watch the way that you make their hearts bleed
              E7E7
Did you even know you were playing that game
                  A minorAm
It’s time to take a break from that same, same, same

Chorus:
DmDm           A minorAm
You’re not getting any younger
DmDm             E7E7
They’re not cutting you no slack
      A minorAm
You got to own what you did
     E7E7       A minorAm
Cause you can not take it back

Verse 2:
A minorAm                E7E7
You’ve been burning bridges while trying to break bread
                 A minorAm
You’ve been lying down with those thoughts in your head
                 E7E7
Can feel the storm a’coming, it’s been coming for days
                   A minorAm
You’ve been making friends with those south city strays

Chorus:
DmDm           A minorAm
You’re not getting any younger
DmDm             E7E7
They’re not cutting you no slack
      A minorAm
You got to own what you did
     E7E7       A minorAm
Cause you can not take it back

Instrumental:
DmDm A minorAm DmDm E7E7 A minorAm E7E7 A minorAm (play chorus)

Verse 3:
A minorAm               E7E7
Before, my eyes were blinded, I couldn’t see a thing
              A minorAm
I was handing out all those diamond rings
            E7E7
Stolen from my captors, borrowed from my friends
               A minorAm
When the darkness came, yeah, I could finally see the end

Chorus:
DmDm           A minorAm
You’re not getting any younger
DmDm             E7E7
They’re not cutting you no slack, Jack
      A minorAm
You got to own what you did
     E7E7       A minorAm
Cause you can not take it back

Instrumental:
DmDm A minorAm DmDm E7E7 A minorAm E7E7 A minorAm x2

Chorus:
DmDm           A minorAm
You’re not getting any younger
DmDm             E7E7
They’re not cutting you no slack, Jack
      A minorAm
You got to own what you did
     E7E7       A minorAm
Cause you can not take it back
      A minorAm
You got to own what you did
     E7E7       A minorAm
Cause you can not take it back.
