D            A             Bm        A
Your little hands wrapped around my finger
         G                A
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
D           A
Your little eyelids
Bm                     A
Flutter cause you're dreaming
      G
So I tuck you in
              A
Turn on your favorite night light

G                         Bm
To you, everything's funny
                       G
You got nothing to regret
                         A
I'd give all I have honey
If you could stay like that

Chorus:
D      A                Bm        A
Oohhh darling don't you ever grow up,
          G
Don't you ever grow up
       A             D
Just stay this little
     A                Bm        A
Ohh darling don't you ever grow up,
          G
Don't you ever grow up
           A             G
It could stay this simple
                           Bm
I won't let nobody hurt you
                            G
Wont let no one break your heart
                      A
No one will desert you
                       D A Bm A G A
Just try to never grow up
           D A Bm A G A
Never grow up

You're in the car on the way to the movies
And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off
At fourteen, there's just so much you can't do
And you can't wait to move out
someday and call your own shots
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she's getting older too
And don't lose the way that you dance
around in your pj's getting ready for school

Chorus:
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
No one's ever burned you,
nothing's ever left you scarred
And even though you want to,
just try to never grow up

G                      D                      A  G
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
                  D                      A
Memorize what is sounded like what your dad gets home
              G                       D
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
             Asus4                      A
And all your little brother's favorite songs
G               D            Asus4                   A
I just realized everything I had is someday gonna be gone
D        A        Bm     A
So here I am in my new apartment
    G                      A
In a big city, they just dropped me off
D             A           Bm           A
It's so much colder than I thought it would be
      G                          A          G D Asus4
So I tuck myself in and turn my nightlight on
                     G D Asus4
Wish I'd never grown up
            A
I wish I'd never grown up

Chorus:
Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
I could still be little
Oh, I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
It could still be simple
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
Won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And even though you want to, please try to never grow up
Oh, don't you ever grow up
Oh, never grow up, just never grow up
