Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Difficulty: Novice

Am
People my age

Have started looking gross

I cannot say all
                    E
And I shouldn't say most
                      Am
I've seen them in the grocery
Am/G                D/F#    F
I've seen 'em up close
         Am
People my age
 E                   Am
Have started looking gross

          Am
People my age

Are showing some wear

There's holes where their teeth was
                          E
And their heads have gone bare
                 Am
Their brains are shrinking
Am/G                D/F#     F
Faces sinking into fat
               Am
And as for the mirror
 E                       Am
We won't be looking into that


Am          E         Am
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm


           Am
People my age

Have started looking gross

Maybe not in Colorado
                  E
Or up the Silicon Coast
               Am
Back in Pennsylvania
Am/G               D/F#    F
I'd eat scrapple on toast
              Am
Those were my first steps
E                     Am
On the road to looking gross



Am        E            Am
Hmm, hmm, hmm, oh, oh, oh, oh


          Am
People my age

Are looking overripe

Some are getting operations
                         E
To tighten up what ain't tight
               Am
What gravity's ruined
Am/G                   D/F#       F
They try to fix with a knife
                       Am
What's pleasant in the darkness
E                      Am
Is plain scary in the light


Am        E         Am      Am7
Hmm, hmm, hmm, oh, oh, oh, oh
