That's How People Grow Up   by Morrissey, From his Greatest Hits
----------------------------------------


Intro:

Am F  Am  F Am  F  E


Verse:

      Am         F
I was wasting my time
Am                 F
Trying to fall in love
Am             F
Disappointment came to me and
C             E
Booted me and bruised and hurt me


Chorus:

F              G          C Am
But that's how people grow up
F              G       E 
That's how people grow up

      Am         F
I was wasting my time
Am          F
Looking for love
Am           F
Someone must look at me and
C                E
See their sunlit dream

      Am         F
I was wasting my time
Am          F
Praying for love
Am              F
For a love that never comes
C                     E
From someone who does not exist

Chorus:

F              G          C Am
But that's how people grow up
F              G       E 
That's how people grow up


Bridge:

G         F
Let me live
F 
Before I die
   Am
No not me
    E
Not I

      Am         F
I was wasting my life
Am                    F
Always thinking about myself
Am                    F
Someone on their deathbed said
C                       E
There are other sorrows too
      Am         F
I was driving my car
Am                     F
I crashed and broke my spine
Am                     F
So yes there are things worse in life than
C                     E
Never being someone's sweetie

F              G          C Am
That's how people grow up
F              G       E 
That's how people grow up

F              G          C Am
That's how people grow up
F              G       E 
That's how people grow up


G      F      Am
As for me I'm okay
        E
For now anyway

F  Am



That's how I hear it, anyhow.

Great song from a great artist- go Team Morrissey.
