Version 1 Version 2
I Don't Wanna Grow Up
Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan
[Verse 1]
D A D
When I'm lyin' in my bed at night, I don't wanna grow up
D A D
Nothin' ever seems to turn out right, I don't wanna grow up
Bm F# G A
How do you move in a world of fog that's always changing things
Bm F# G A
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
[Verse 2]
D A D
When I see the price that you pay, I don't wanna grow up
D A D
I don't ever want to be that way, I don't wanna grow up
Bm F# G A
Seems like folks turn into things that they'd never want
Bm F# G A
The only thing to live for is today
[Chorus 1]
D A D
I'm gonna put a hole in my tv set, I don't wanna grow up
D A D
Open up the medicine chest, and I don't wanna grow up
Bm F#
I don't wanna have to shout it out
Bm F#
I don't want my hair to fall out
Bm F#
I don't wanna be filled with doubt
Bm F#
I don't wanna be a good boy scout
Bm F#
I don't wanna have to learn to count
Bm F#
I don't wanna have the biggest amount
G A D
I don't wanna grow up
[Verse 3]
D A D
Well when I see my parents fight I don't wanna grow up
D A D
They all go out and drinkin' all night and I don't wanna grow up
Bm F#
I'd rather stay here in my room
Bm F#
Nothin' out there but sad and gloom
Bm F# G A
I don't wanna live in a big old tomb on Grant Street
[Chorus 2]
D A D
When I see the 5 o'clock news I don't wanna grow up
D A D
Comb their hair and shine their shoes; I don't wanna grow up
Bm F#
Stay around in my old hometown;
Bm F#
I don't wanna put no money down;
Bm F#
I don't wanna get me a big old loan;
Bm F#
Work them fingers to the bone;
Bm F#
I don't wanna float a broom;
Bm F#
Fall in love and get married then boom;
Bm F#
How the hell did it get here so soon?
G A D
I don't wanna grow up
