Growing Up taby ukulele według Deb Talan (Chwyty barytonu)

G

G
When you were a child and we all lived in the wild
And we married
And carried you in our arms and in our hearts
        Am
We were two, then three
Full and free just to be with you, see you
              G
Made us feel anew, just like every day, love you like today
It’s your birthday

                 Am                D
Even though your mother’s suddenly crying
                   G                        C
She says it is the cake in the kitchen, you know she’s lying
Am                        D
Your brothers fighting of your balloons
           G                         C
Still, the radio is playing all your favorite tunes
    Am                          D
And Daddy will take down “Peter Pan” from the shelf
          G                                  C
And he’ll read it out loud, though you could read it yourself
Am             D  G               C
You’re growing up, you’re growing up
          Am    D        G
But don’t grow away from me

G
Oh, life is like a dream
The moment in between when you wake and sleep
In the deep, knowing it now, knowing how
     Am
It’s heavy though, we can help you gro
                     G
Wanna package up the world like a present
We fail, and try again
It’s your birthday.

                 Am                D
Even though your mother’s suddenly crying
                   G                        C
She says it is the cake in the kitchen, you know she’s lying
Am                        D
Your brothers fighting of your balloons
           G                         C
Still, the radio is playing all your favorite tunes
    Am                          D
And Daddy will take down “Peter Pan” from the shelf
          G                                  C
And he’ll read it out loud, though you could read it yourself
Am             D  G               C
You’re growing up, you’re growing up
          Am    D        G
But don’t grow away from me

  Am      D
I finally see
   G       C         Am   D      G      C        Am  D
To let you go is the only way to really help you fly
    G   C           Am D
But I’d rather hold on tight

    G
You are a shining star
A bright spot in the universe
While things here go from bad to worse
So dark what lonely people do
Am
Take too much, take too fast, eat too much
                      G
I wish there could be more of your kind
Grow strong, we’ll ride along
It’s your birthday

                 Am                D
Even though your mother’s suddenly crying
                   G                        C
She says it is the cake in the kitchen, you know she’s lying
Am                        D
Your brothers fighting of your balloons
           G                         C
Still, the radio is playing all your favorite tunes
    Am                          D
And Daddy will take down “Peter Pan” from the shelf
          G                                  C
And he’ll read it out loud, though you could read it yourself
Am             D  G               C
You’re growing up, you’re growing up
       Am    D            G                    C
you're going up, but don't grow away don't grow away
      Am    D    G           C
don't grow away, don't grow away
      Am    D        G  C
don't grow away from me

Am    D    G   C
ehee ehee ehee
Am    D    G   C
whoo whoo whoo
Am    D    G   
whoo whoo whoo
