[verse]
D           D/C#             Bm        A
Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
         G               A
and it's so quiet in the world tonight
D            D/C#     Bm
your little eyelids flutter
          A
'cause you're dreamin'
     G
so I tuck you in,
             A
turn on your favorite nightlight

[pre-chorus]
G                         Bm
To you, everything's funny,
                          G
You've got nothing to regret.
                         A
I'd give all I have honey

if you could stay like that.

[chorus]
D    D/C#              Bm        A
Oh, darlin' don't you ever grow up,
          G
don't you ever grow up
     A
just stay this little.
D    D/C#             Bm        A
Oh, darlin' dont you ever grow up,
         G
dont you ever grow up
         A
It could stay this simple.
            G              Bm
I won't let nobody hurt you,
                             G
won't let no one break your heart,
                            A
yeah, no one will desert you

Just try to never grow up.

[verse]
D             D/C#       Bm           A
You're in the car on the way to the movies
           G
and you're mortified
           A
your mom's dropping you off.
D      D/C#             Bm             A
At 14, there's just so much you can't do
              G
and you can't wait to move out
             A
some day and call your own shots.

[pre-chorus]
G
But don't make her drop you
                    Bm
off around the block,
                                  G
remember that she's getting older too.

and don't lose the way that you dance
 A
around in your PJs gettin' ready for school

[chorus]
D   D/C#               Bm        A
Oh, darlin' don't you ever grow up,
          G
don't you ever grow up
     A
just stay this little.
D   D/C#               Bm        A
Oh, darlin' don't you ever grow up,
          G
don't you ever grow up
         A
It could stay this simple.
G                      Bm
No ones ever burned you,
                          G
Nothing's ever left you scarred,
                            A
and even though you want to

Just try to never grow up.

[bridge]
G                     D
Take pictures in your mind
                   A
of your childhood room,
G                 D
memorise what it sounded like
          A
when your dad gets home.
            G
Remember the footsteps,
             D
remember the words said,
              A
and know your little brother's favourite songs.
G               D            A
I just realised everything I have

is someday gonna be gone.

[verse]
D         D/C#     Bm      A
So here I am in my new apartment,
     G                   A
In a big city, they just dropped me off.
D            D/C#
It's so much colder than
  Bm                A
I thought it would be,
     G                       A
so I tuck myself, and turn my nightlight on.

[pre-chorus]
G  D  A
...Wish I'd never grown up,

G  D  A
... I wish I'd never grown up.

[chorus]
D  D/C#      Bm         A
Oh, I don't wanna grow up,
         G
wish I'd never grown up,
         A
I could still be little.
D  D/C#     Bm          A
Oh, I don't wanna grow up,
         G
wish I'd never grown up,
          A
It could still be simple.

D   D/C#               Bm        A
Oh, darlin' don't you ever grow up,
          G
don't you ever grow up,
     A
just stay this little.
D   D/C#              Bm        A
Oh, darlin' dont you ever grow up,
         G
dont you ever grow up
         A
It could stay this simple.
D D/C#       Bm         A        G
    I won't let nobody hurt you,
          A                  D D/C#
won't let no one break your heart,
    Bm              A      G
And even though you want to,
              A
please try to never grow up.

Ohh
G  A
Oh, don't you ever grow up
D  D/C#  Bm  A

G  A              D
