Older and Taller Regina Spektor
(Verse 1)
[C#]I remembered you o[Ab]lder and taller
But you're [Bbm]younger and smaller
So [F#]who's gonna call her and [C#]say
That you're [Ab]back again?[Bbm] [F#]
[C#]And all the lies, they were wi[Ab]ser
And wise were the l[Bbm]ies
And the lies were on [F#]fire
And the fires were put [C#]out just to be [Ab]lit again[Bbm] [F#]
[Bbm]You're alone 'til you're [F#]not alone
And that's a[Ab]ll you need to [C#]know[Ab]
[Bbm]Every time you d[F#]ecide to stay
Then the[Ab] world will make you[C#] go[Ab]
And that[Ab]'s all you need to k[C#]now [Ab] - pause -
(Verse 2)
[C#]All the debts, they got s[Ab]ettled
And the settlers got c[Bbm]attle
But the cattle was ra[F#]ttled by the snakes
That were g[C#]uarding the g[Ab]arden gat[Bbm]es[F#]
[C#]And you retired just in t[Ab]ime
You were about to be fi[Bbm]red
For being so [F#]tired from hiring the [C#]ones
Who will [Ab]take your pla[Bbm]ce[F#]
[Bbm]All the lies on your [F#]resume
Have b[Ab]ecome the truth by n[C#]ow[Ab]
[Bbm]And the things that you n[F#]ever did
Have b[Ab]ecome your youth, so[C#]mehow[Ab]
You kn[Ab]ow everything by now[C#] [Ab]
(Bridge)
[C#]Enj[Ab]oy yo[C#]ur yo[Ab]uth
[C#]Sounds l[Ab]ike [C#]a thr[Ab]eat
[C#]Enj[Ab]oy yo[C#]ur y[Ab]outh
[C#]Sounds l[Ab]ike [C#]a th[Ab]reat

{Verse 3)
[C#]I remembered you o[Ab]lder and taller
But you're yo[Bbm]unger and smaller
So w[F#]ho's gonna call her and s[C#]ay
That you're h[Ab]ere at last[Bbm]?[F#]
[C#]And all the days, they were l[Ab]onger
And the drinks, they were st[Bbm]ronger
The words, we sang w[F#]rong
But the songs were rem[C#]embered
And t[Ab]ime just passe[Bbm]d[F#]
(Chorus)
[Bbm]You're around 'til you're [F#]not around
And that's [Ab]all I need to know[C#] [Ab]
[Bbm]Every time you decide to s[F#]tay
Then the w[Ab]orld will make you[C#] go[Ab]
And that's[Ab] all you need to k[C#]now[Ab]
(Outro)
