[INTRO: Spoken]
C G D
"So the question is, why doesn't he grow up?
Em C
Why does he still behave as a child?
G
How can we help him get rid of these
D Em
leftovers from chidish behavior?"
[VERSE 1]
Em D
This is the winter of our youth
G C
Oh but I'm not there yet
Em D
I've got nostalgia running through me
G C
And I don't like it
[PRE-CHORUS]
C G
Oh my, my, my, my
G Em
Now I can almost taste it, taste it
C G
But I,
D Em
Just hope we didn't waste it away
[CHORUS]
C G
I know the winter's getting colder
D Em
But why? Just cause we're a little older
C G D Em
Do I relive it, I relive it all?
C G
I'm pedaling backwards
Em D
Even if I'm pedaling alone, can't help it
C G D Em
I relive it, I relive it all
C G D Em
[VERSE 2]
Em D
It's 4AM here comes the fear, I'm
G C
Not prepared yet
Em D
And when we pick over the past, we
G C
Glorify it
[PRE-CHORUS]
C G
Oh my, my, my, my
G Em
I hope I wasn't wasted, wasted
C G
And I,
D Em
I hope I didn't drink it away
[CHORUS]
C G
I know the winter's getting colder
D Em
But why? Just cause we're a little older
C G D Em
Do I relive it, I relive it all?
C G
I'm pedaling backwards
Em D
Even if I'm pedaling alone, can't help it
C G D Em
I relive it, I relive it all
[BRIDGE]
C Em C Em D
I let myself bathe in the past for way, way, way too long
C Em C Em D
And now it seems I've drunk too much to give you what you want
[CHORUS]
C G
I know the winter's getting colder
D Em
But why? Just cause we're a little older
C G D Em
Do I relive it, I relive it all?
C G
I'm pedaling backwards
Em D
Even if I'm pedaling alone, can't help it
C G D Em
I relive it, I relive it all
C G D Em
Can't help it, I relive it, I relive it all
C G D Em
Can't help it, I relive it, I relive it all
C G
I'm pedaling backwards
Em D
Even if I'm pedaling alone, can't help it
C G D Em
I relive it, I relive it all
