Photograph, remembering the summer
G5 C5
It takes me back,
G5 C5
To Southern California.
G5
Where the girls would all pass
C5
On the boardwalk and laugh
G5 C5
At our desperate attempts and our sunburned backs
E5 D5
We never had a chance, I remember that
C5
And no matter what we do,
D5
We'll never lose what we had.
G5 C5
Growing up
G5 C5
Won't bring us down.
G5 C5
Yeah, growing up,
E5
It won't bring us down,
D5 G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down
G5 C5 G5 C5
Graduate, what's a kid to do now?
G5 C5
Get away, yeah-ah.
G5 C5
We've got so much to prove.
G5
Cause it's time to move on
Cadd9
And I'm stuck to let go,
G5 C5
But then Wonderwall comes on the radio,
E5 D5
I flashback to the night in your parent's yard,
C5 D5
When we drank too much and we talked about god...
G5 C5 G5 C5
Growing up, won't bring us down.
G5 C5 G5 C5
Growing up, it won't bring us down.
E5
We're in this together,
D5
Yeah, we'll make it somehow,
C5 D5
Nothing's gonna stop us now...
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down
F5 C5 G5
Growing up won't bring us down
F5 C5 G5
Oh-oh-oh
G5 C5 G5 C5
Photograph, oh give me something to remember
G5 C5 G5 C5
Growing up, won't bring us down.
G5 C5 G5 C5
Growing up, it won't bring us down.
E5
We're in this together,
D5
Yeah, we'll make it somehow,
C5 D5
Nothing's gonna stop us now...
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down (won't bring us down)
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us down (won't bring us down)
G5 C5
Growing up won't bring us....... down.
