Sasha Alex Sloan - Older: chords

B           E      G#m                    F#
I used to shut my door, while my mother screamed in the kitchen
B             E    G#m               F#
I'd turn the music up, get high and try not to listen
   B             E           G#m              F#
To every little fight 'cause neither one was right

    B                       E
I swore I'd never be like them
    G#m                    F#
But I was just a kid back then

Chorus:
             E                   F#
The older I get, the more that I see
                   B                       G#m
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me
               E                     F#
And loving is hard, it don't always work
                   B               G#m
You just try your best not to get hurt
              E              F#
I used to be mad, but now I know
                B        F#/A#       G#m
Sometimes it's better to let someone go
                E
It just hadn't hit me yet
             B
The older I get

I used to wonder why, why they could never be happy
I used to close my eyes and pray for a whole 'nother family
Where everything was fine, one that felt like mine

I swore I'd never be like them
But I was just a kid back then

Chorus:
The older I get, the more that I see
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me
And loving is hard, it don't always work
You just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad, but now I know
Sometimes it's better to let someone go
It just hadn't hit me yet
The older I get

The older I get, the more that I see
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me
And loving is hard, it don't always work
You just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad, but now I know
Sometimes it's better to let someone go
It just hadn't hit me yet
The older I get
