Sasha Sloan - Older

[Verse 1]
G C Em D
I used to shut my door while my mother screamed in the kitchen
G C Em D
I’d turn the music up, get high and try not to listen

[Pre-Chorus]
G C Em D
To every little fight ‘cause neither one was right
G C
I swore I’d never be like them
Em D
But I was just a kid back then

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

[Verse 2]
C Em D
I used to wonder why, why they could never be happy
G C Em D
I used to close my eyes and pray for a whole ‘nother family

[Pre-Chorus]
G C Em D
Where everything was fine, one that felt like mine
G C
I swore I’d never be like them
Em D
But I was just a kid back then

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

[Bridge]
Em D G C Em D C D
The older I get, the more that I see

[Chorus]
G Em
My parents aren’t heroes, they’re just like me
C D
And loving is hard, it don’t always work
G Em
You just try your best not to get hurt
C D
I used to be mad, but now I know
G Em
Sometimes it’s better to let someone go
C
It just hadn’t hit me yet
C D
The older I get
