Verse 1:
A                               F#m
I'm thirty-something going on thirteen
D                   E
Still a sponge to everything
A                                F#m
Saucer eyes wide, yeah, I still believe
D
And a sparkle in my steps
E
Smiling with my teeth

Pre-Chorus:
A                              F#m
They say that I might lose my Midas touch
D                      E
They also say I may become irrelevant
A                           F#m
But who the fuck are they anyway?
D            E
I don't care what they say

Chorus:
A
I won't act my age
F#m                       D         E
Time is just an invention man has made
A
No, I won't act my age
F#m                       D            E
It's just my reflection that is out of date
A
'Cause it's all in your attitude
F#m
It's all in your point of view
D              E
I won't act my age
A                                       F#m
Just need a little bit of Peter Pan and some imagination
D                  E
No, I won't act my age

Verse 2:
A                         F#m
So, I recommend that you lose your mind
D                                  E
It was the only thing that was keeping me behind

Pre-Chorus:
A                    F#m
They say curb your curiosity
D                         E
They also say prepare to amend your dreams
A                          F#m
But who the fuck are they anyway?
D                       E
I don't care what they say

Chorus:
A
I won't act my age
F#m                       D         E
Time is just an invention man has made
A
No, I won't act my age
F#m                       D            E
It's just my reflection that is out of date
A
'Cause it's all in your attitude
F#m
It's all in your point of view
D              E
I won't act my age
A                                       F#m
Just need a little bit of Peter Pan and some imagination
D                  E
No, I won't act my age

Bridge:
A                        F#m
How old would you be? Yeah
D                        E
How old would you really be
A                    F#m
If you didn't know, yeah
D                     E
How old you really were?
A                       F#m
How old would you be? Yeah
D                        E
How old would you really be
A                      F#m
If you didn't know (know)
D                      E
How old you really were?
(Hey!)
