Key: G

*= single strum


Intro:

G  C


Verse 1:
G
Rosy cheeks, baby teeth
G
Riding bikes and grazing knees
C

Chocolate-covered strawberries
C
Fake tattoos up our sleeves
G
Mom's blush on my cheeks
G
Like a boy, he's kinda sweet
C
Breaking up after a week
C
We still talk, but never married


Pre-Chorus:
G
 I want to but I can't go back, life's a one-way street
C                                                      G
Then growing up and getting older is like driving high speed
            D              C
And I can't hit the brakes and that's the part I hate


Chorus:
           G
Losing the training wheels means I'm gonna fall
                 Am7
Just 'cause I’m wearing heels, doesn't mean I feel tall
      G                D
If I keep the candles burning
     Am7                  C
The years would still be turning
             G
Losing the training wheels means losing control
                Am7
Just 'cause I'm older now doesn't mеan I feel whole
            G              D
I wish the years won't bе turning
      Am7               C
If I keep the candles burning


Verse 2:
         G
What if I'm a liability
    G
Or not who they want me to be?
    C
If my thoughts get the best of me
     C
I still call mom when it gets heavy
G                        D
 My little brother shot past my height
C                                Am7
 Can't fit on my dad's shoulders if I tried


Pre-Chorus:
G
 I want to but I can't go back, life's a one-way street
C                                                      G
Then growing up and getting older is like driving high speed
            D              C
And I can't hit the brakes and that's the part I hate


Chorus:
           G
Losing the training wheels means I'm gonna fall
                 Am7
Just 'cause I’m wearing heels, doesn't mean I feel tall
      G                D
If I keep the candles burning
     Am7                  C
The years would still be turning
             G
Losing the training wheels means losing control
                Am7
Just 'cause I'm older now doesn't mеan I feel whole
            G              D
I wish the years won't bе turning
      Am7               C
If I keep the candles burning


Bridge:
G              D                       C
 Lost parts of me, kinda sad to think about
                  Am7                             G
How fast moments pass, oh, I'm thinking way too loud
               D                         C               Am7
Still in this town, what if I never get out? (What if I never get out)
G              D                              C
 Oh, I'm still me, learn to swim, but almost drown
               Am7                               G
Died once or twice when the guys I loved walked out
               D                             C
But I'm still here with both my feet on the ground
                    Am7                           G*
Blow another candle out, think I'm finally happy now


Outro:
            G
I lost the training wheels and learned how to fall
            C
And now I'm wearing heels, sometimes I still feel small
              G                D
I wished the years won't be turning
      Am7               C                  G*
If I keep the candles, keep the candles burning
