Sasha Sloan - Older

      You can use a capo and move it up and down to whichever key fits your voice.


[Verse 1]
B         E       G#m                      F#
I used to shut my door, while my mother screamed in the kitchen
 B           E                      F#
I'd turn the music up, get high and try not to listen
    B              E          G#m
To every little fight 'cause neither one was right


[Pre-Chorus]
    B                       E
I swore I'd never be like them
     G#m                    F#
But I was just a kid back then


[Chorus]
            E                    F#
The older I get, the more that I see
                    B                       G#m
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me
              E                     F#
And loving is hard, it don't always work
                  B                G#m
You just try your best not to get hurt
             E              F#
I used to be mad, but now I know
                  B        Bmaj7       G#m
Sometimes it's better to let someone go
                E
It just hadn't hit me yet
              B
The older I get


[Verse 2]
  B          E   G#m                 F#
I used to wonder why, why they could never be happy
B         E        Abm                 F#
I used to close my eyes and pray for a whole 'nother family
       B              E    G#m                F#
Where everything was fine, one that felt like mine


[Pre-Chorus]
  B                       E
I swore I'd never be like them
    G#m                   F#
But I was just a kid back then


[Chorus]
            E                    F#
The older I get, the more that I see
                  B                       G#m
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me
              E                     F#
And loving is hard, it don't always work
                  B               G#m
You just try your best not to get hurt
             E              F#
I used to be mad, but now I know
                  B      Bmaj7      G#m
Sometimes it's better to let someone go
               E
It just hadn't hit me yet
            B
The older I get


[Chorus]
            E                    F#
The older I get, the more that I see
                     B                      G#m
My parents aren't heroes, they're just like me
              E                     F#
And loving is hard, it don't always work
                  B               G#m
You just try your best not to get hurt
             E              F#
I used to be mad, but now I know
               B         Bmaj7      G#m
Sometimes it's better to let someone go
               E
It just hadn't hit me yet
            B
The older I get
