Em      C              G
I was young, still at home
        D              Em
And my mum would call me
            C                 G
Down the street through the trees
         D                     C
And I'd run back towards that sound
          D                    Em
Where I knew that love was waiting

Caught a flight, chased a dream
Never second guessed it
On the run, didn’t stop
Saw the edge and had to jump
I still feel like I'm the same kid
So why's the mirror say I’m not

Chorus:
C         D
Ooh, baby
            Em           C             D
Seems we're only getting older lately, ooh
G                 C              D
And I think I'm scared that maybe
      Em               C                       D
After all this growing up (growing up growing up)
                             Em C G
I'm only good at being young

D                   Em C
Good at being young
G         D
I'm only good at being young

Packed a car, moved away
Met the girl of my dreams, I
Never been happier
But I still don't have a clue
Time won't tell you when it's leaving
You just look up and it’s gone

Chorus

 C                 G
(I'm only good at being young)
D                   Em C G
Good at being young
          D                 C
I'm only good at being young

          D
But I'll hold on to that feeling
           Em
’Cause you never know
               D G C
No, you never ooh
       D
Maybe none of us were ever meant
   Em
To let it go
               D
Never let it go

Chorus:
Ooh, baby
Seems we're only getting older lately, ooh
And I think I'm scared that maybe
After all this growing up
I'm only good, yeah

Ooh, baby (Ooh, baby)
Why'd it feel like I was never changing?
(Never changing) Ooh
And I'm just terrified that maybe (Just terrified)
After all this growing up, oh, oh
I'm only good at being young

I'm only good at being young
I'm only good at being young
I'm only good at being young
I'm only good at being young
