     F#m                    C#/F
And I'll turn eighteen on a Sunday
                  D               E C#/F
And it'll be the day I've waited for
     F#m                      C#/F
Mom will bake cake and there'll be presents
           D             E
Like there always was before
       C#/F
But if time keeps moving just like this
                  D              A E/G# F#m C#/F D
Then it won't be soon before I'm old

Chorus:
       D              E
And they will all be wishing they
       D       E        A
could just be kids like us
       D              E
And they will all be wishing they
       D       E        A
could just be kids like us
     C#/F
But I'm getting older with each day
     D     Dm                A
And soon, I'll be wishing, too

And on the eve of my fifth birthday
When my father found me in tears
And I've always been fearless
But scared of oncoming years
And he tried to make it alright
And he told me not to cry

Chorus

It's easy to remember
When everything was calm
Two hands on the bike I rode
Just me and my mom
But I haven't rode in a long while
Because I drive most of the time

Chorus

And soon, I'll be wishing, too
