F F C C
When I grow up
Bb Bb
I will be tall enough to reach the branches
Bbm Bbm F F
That I need to reach to climb the trees
C C Bb Bb
You get to climb when you're grown up


F F C C
And when I grow up
Bb Bb
I will be smart enough to answer all
Bbm Bbm
The questions that you need to know
F F C C Bb Bb
The answers to before you're grown up


Bbadd9 Bbadd9
And when I grow up
F F
I will eat sweets everyday
Gm7 Gm7
On the way to work and I will go
F F
To bed late every night


Bbadd9 Bbadd9
And I will wake up
F F
When the sun comes up and I
Gm7 Gm7
Will watch cartoons until my eyes go square


C7 C7
And I won't care
A7 A7
'Cause I'll be all grown up
Dm Dm C C Bbmaj Bbmaj
When I grow up


F F
When I grow up
C C
(When I grow up, when I grow up)
Bbmaj Bbmaj
I will be strong enough to carry all
Gm7 Gm7
The heavy things you have to haul
F F C C Bbadd9 Bbadd9
Around with you when you're a grown up


F F
And when I grow up
C C
(When I grow up, when I grow up)
Bbmaj Bbmaj
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
Gm7 Gm7
That you have to fight beneath the bed
F F C C Bbadd9 Bbadd9
Each night to be a grown up


Bbadd9 Bbadd9
And when I grow up (and when I grow up)
F F
I will have treats evey day
Gm7 Gm7
And I'll play with things that mum pretends
F F
That mums don't think are fun


Bbadd9 Bbadd9
And I will wake up (and I will wake up)
F F
When the sun comes up and I
Gm7 Gm7
Will spend all day just lying in the sun
C7 C7 A7 A7
And I won't burn cause I'll be all grown up
Dm Dm C C Bbmaj Bbmaj
When I grow up


F F C C Bbadd9 Bbadd9 Bbm Bbm F F C C Bbadd9 Bbadd9


F F C C
When I grow up
Bb Bb
I will be brave enough to fight the creatures
Bbm Bbm F F
That you have to fight beneath the bed
C C Bbadd9 Bbadd9
Each night to be a grown up

Bbadd9 Bbadd9
When I grow up

Just because you find that life's not fair
F F
It doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
Gm7 Gm7
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
F F
Nothing will change

Bbadd9 Bbadd9
When I grow up

Just because I find myself in this story
F F
It doesn't mean that everything is written for me
Gm7 Gm7
If I think the ending is fixed already
C C
I might as well be saying
A7 A7
I think that it's OK
A A A A Dm Dm
And that's not right
