G A Am D C
Please stop reading all of those young adult novels
G A Am D C G
Like "Looking for Alaska" or "The Perks of Being a Wallflower"
A Am D C
There’s more to life than romance and butterflies
G A Am D C
But you'll never learn if you keep on taking advice from 15-year-old guys
G A Am D C
[Verse]
G A Am D C
Don’t make it seem poetic that you met a boy back in high school
G A Am D C
And he was so sweet and cool that you wish you were not 22
G A Am D C G
You’re living in the past, that boy is working at a grocery store
A Am D C
While you work on your PhD in Sociology
G A Am D
[Chorus]
C G
And everything you’d thought you’d learned
D C G
Was a misreading of terms
D C G F
And now we’re anchored to illogical thoughts
D C G
We’ll always be 13 at heart
D C G
We’ll always be 13 at heart
D C F
We’ll always be 13 at heart
D C G
At least until we start reading Hemingway
