♫ Verse 1:
C majorC            Csus4Csus4  C majorC
 Look at us, we made it out alive
G/BG/B  A minorAm             FF        C majorC
    Those were the years that I learnt to survive
Csus4Csus4 C majorC         Csus4Csus4    C majorC
 Maybe youth ain't the time of our lives
G/BG/B  A minorAm   FF      C majorC    Csus4Csus4
    They just romanticise it
C majorC        Csus4Csus4     C majorC
 Met you at a party on Halloween
G/BG/B  A minorAm           FF    C majorC
    You were studying at university
Csus4Csus4    C majorC         Csus4Csus4        C majorC
 And all your friends would laugh and joke about me
E minorEm    A minorAm       FF       C majorC
But I didn't mind being a punchline at sixteen

♫ Chorus:
            FF   G+G
I liked that you were older
          A minorAm      C majorC
But at the time I didn't understand
          FF
It's 'cause you held the power
G+G            A minorAm         C majorC
 And I thought love was meant to feel like that
        FF
All the things I gave you
G+G          A minorAm         C majorC
 Now I wish I could take them all right back
         FF
'Cause I wasn't a woman yet
G+G        A minorAm  C majorC
 But you were a man
      FF    G+G       C majorC  Csus4Csus4
I was just a girl in love with a man

♫ Verse 2:
C majorC           FF         C majorC
 And it felt like a twisted game you'd play
G/BG/B  A minorAm           FF     C majorC
    Of who could take my innocence away
  Csus4Csus4  C majorC
But it wasn't yours
FF        C majorC
No, never yours to claim
  G/BG/B     A minorAm       FF       C majorC
I thought that to love was to give yourself away

♫ Chorus:
         FF
It sent me into orbit
G+G          A minorAm       C majorC
 Knowing that you wanted me like that
     FF
Didn't see a problem
G+G          A minorAm       C majorC
 It's only now I'm older, looking back
       FF
Made me feel so special
G+G        A minorAm       C majorC
 Now the only thing I feel is mad
      FF
'Cause I wasn't a woman yet
G+G         A minorAm  C majorC
 But you were a man
   FF       G+G      DmDm
I wasn't a woman yet, but now I am

♫ Bridge:

You'd pick me up in your car
     FF
We'd go speeding down the lanes
         DmDm
I'd meet you in town
             FF
With my fake ID, claiming I was 23
       DmDm
To get into bars

I'd never felt so cool and
 FF                DmDm
Now I know you probably knew that I
             FF
Would do anything to impress you
      DmDm          FF
And now I wonder, is that how they get you?

♫ Chorus:
          FF
They say that your youth is
DmDm         A minorAm      C majorC
 Meant to be the time of your life
FF     G+G
But I feel ******* stupid
         A minorAm      C majorC
That I was crying over older guys
           FF    G+G
Bet they don't think about it
          A minorAm       C majorC
Wish I knew what I know now back then
       FF       G+G
'Cause I wasn't a woman yet
        A minorAm  C majorC
But you were a man
     FF     G+G       C majorC
I was just a girl in love with a man
