Em C
This boy wants to play

There's no time left today

Got to sweat just to pay what he gets to get left all alone
Bridge:

Well let's step outside

Let's go for a ride

Just for a while
Am C
No we won't get caught

Well that's what I thought, until we cried

I'm still here

But it hasn't been easy

I'm sure that you had your reasons
G B7
I'm scared for this emotion

For years I've been holding it down

Verse 2:
Em C
This girl tries her best everyday

But it's all gone to waste 'cause there's no one around

This girl she can draw she can paint

Likes to dance she can skate
D
Now she don't make a sound
Bridge:

We'll play in the park

Well we'll make our way home

With mud on our clothes

She won't be pleased

I'm still here

So I, try to put all this behind us

Just, know that my arms are wide open

The older I get, the more that I know

Well it's time to let this go
