Verse 1
A- / G
It's 6:00, and you'll be home soon
And I hope I have the strength now to be honest in our room
But, we've grown so different and I know you know that too.
But it was sure nice being in love with you.

Verse 2
A- / G
And since we met, some time before,
I don't know if you'd remember all those years ago, but
You were so different, younger, I know I was too.
But it was sure nice living here with you.

CHORUS
E- / G / D / C
So, turn off the lights cause I feel much older.
I make these tracks as I look over my shoulder and
I'd hate for you to come here this way
When I've learned by now that I won't let you stay
So, fortune sold your soul for more and you'll come back from that place I'm sure
But we're not the same, we're not the same, it's not the same.

Verse 3
A- / G
And as things go, this isn't so bad.
And one day I might look back and think it's the best I'd ever had but,
Things aren't so simple and I know you think that too,
And you're worth more to me than to keep deceiving you.

CHORUS
E- / G / D / C
So, turn off the lights cause I've grown much older.
And the weight of this is hanging over my shoulder.
I'd hate for you to come here this way.
When I've learned by now that I'm not gonna stay ...
So, fortune will bring your soul to its door, and by then you'll be over this I'm sure
And it'll be ok, it'll be ok, it'll be ok.

Verse 4
A- / G / C or F / G
You'll find happiness and in time you'll come to see things.
You're losing ground but I can't stop to help your breathing.
And I know the songs you wrote, and the best parts of your life.
You're going to grow up fast, but I know you'll be alright.
