The Older I Get Acoustic chords by Skillet

Chords with lyrics

I always mute the E MajorE string for the G+G chords except for the last chord in the
chorus. I also don't have the ending finished but I figure this should give you a good start.

***Verse1***
C majorC
The walls between
G+G
You and I
DmDm                A minorAm         G+G
Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight

C majorC
The space between
G+G
Our calm and rage
DmDm                A minorAm        G+G
started growing shorter , disappearing slowly day after day

***Pre-Chorus***
For this section use power chords.
  D MajorD  E MajorE  FF

D MajorD              E MajorE       FF
I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
            D MajorD
You were waiting for me too

And it makes me wonder

***Chorus***
C majorC
The older I get
G+G
Will I get over it
DmDm
It's been way too long for the times we missed
A minorAm          G+G            C majorC
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think

C majorC
The older I get
G+G
Maybe I'll get over it
DmDm
It's been way too long for the times we missed
A minorAm            G+G
I can't believe it still hurts like this

***Verse2***(same chord as Verse1)
C majorC
The time between
G+G
Those cutting words
DmDm                A minorAm         G+G
Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt
C majorC
Do you believe
G+G
That time heals all wounds
DmDm                A minorAm         G+G
It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you

Pre-Chorus+Chorus(1x)

***Bridge***
A minorAm
What was I waiting for
C majorC                G+G
I should've taken less and given you more

I should've weathered the storm
         A minorAm
I need to say so bad
            C majorC
What were you waiting for
             G+G      C majorC
This could have been the best we ever had

Chorus(1x)

Good luck and let me know what I screwed up!
