[Verse 1]
               C#
You’re growing up my love
           G#
Oh, I’m so proud you
 figured out
               A#m
That you don’t need
 my touch
            F#      F#m
To make you feel enough
          C#
Maybe the need is gone
           G#
But do you want me
 just be honest
         A#m
Am I the only one
             F#      F#m
That's still holding on

[Pre-Chorus]
G#
I wanna believe you but
       A#m
it’s heavy in my chest
D#m
Why do all your words keep
          C#
starting fires in my head
  G#                      A#m
I know you better than myself
      F#
I can tell
      F#m
I can tell that
you’re changing

[Chorus]
C#
I know
You don’t think I notice
            C#/G#
 where your mind goes
G#
When we’re all alone
A#m
I know that we’re young
and chasing moments
F#
Why’s it gotta mean that
      F#m
 our hearts get broken
C#
Oh no
You only say you love mе
           C#/G#
 with your eyes closed
G#
Tеll me where you go
A#m
I know that we’re young
and can’t control it
F#
Why’s it gotta mean that
     F#m
our hearts get broken

[Verse 2]
               C#
We're stuck in shades
 of gray
              G#
But shouldn’t lovers
see in color
                 A#m
I’m scared we’re both afraid
           F#       F#m
That maybe it’s too late
 to save it

Why
Why does I love you feel
              G#
 like you’re lying

Why does tonight feel like
          A#m
 it’s the last time that
      G#       F#
 I’ll call you mine
         D#m
Call you mine

[Chorus]
C#
I know

You don’t think I notice
            G#
that we’re half home
And halfway out the door

A#m
I know that we’re young
and chasing moments

Why’s it gotta mean that

 our hearts get broken
C#
Oh no

You only say you love me
           G#
with your eyes closed

Tell me where you go
A#m
I know that we’re young
 and can’t control it
F#
Why’s it gotta mean that
 our hearts get broken
