B
How you ain't say you was movin' forward?
E
Honesty hurts when you're gettin' older
B                                   E
I gotta say I'll miss the way you need me, yeah
B
Why you ain't say you was gettin' bored?
E
Why you ain't say I was fallin' short?
B                            E
How you lead me out so far away?

B
How could it be?
              E
20 something, all alone still
                B
Not a thing in my name
                    E
Ain't got nothin', runnin' from love
           B
Only know fear
             E
That's me, Ms. 20 Something
B
Ain't got nothin', runnin' from love
E
Wish you were here, oh

Chorus:
B                              E
Stuck in them 20 somethings, stuck in
them 20 somethings
B                                  E
Good luck on them 20 somethings, good
luck on them 20 somethings
B
But God bless these 20 somethings
E
(God bless, oh God bless, oh God bless,
oh God bless, oh)
B
Hopin' my 20 somethings won't end
E                               B
Hopin' to keep the rest of my friends
                                 E
Prayin' the 20 somethings don't kill me,
don't kill me

Weird, took us so long to separate
I feel, it's permanent like a riptide, this time
Waves crashing fast, I try
Think of the past, please stay
How could it be?

How could it be?
20 something, all alone still
Not a phone in my name
Ain't got nothin', runnin' from love
Only know fear
That's me, Ms. 20 Something
Ain't got nothin', runnin' from love
Wish you were here, oh

Chorus:
Stuck in them 20 somethings,
stuck in them 20 somethings
Good luck on them 20 somethings,
good luck on them 20 somethings
But God bless these 20 somethings
(God bless, oh God bless,
oh God bless, oh God bless, oh)
Hopin' my 20 somethings won't end
Hopin' to keep the rest of my friends
Prayin' the 20 somethings don't kill me, kill me

B
(God bless, oh God bless,
oh God bless, oh God bless, oh)
E
(God bless, oh God bless,
oh God bless, oh God bless, oh)
B
(God bless, oh God bless,
oh God bless, oh God bless, oh)
