[Verse 1]~
Csus4 C G C Csus4 C G C
I stood stone-like at midnight,.. suspended in my masquerade
Csus4 C G C Csus4 C G C
I combed my hair till it was just right and commanded the night brigade
F C G C F C G C
I was open to pain and crossed by the rain and I walked on a crooked crutch
F C G C F C G C F C F
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone and come out with my soul untouched
G F Am
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd,.. but when they said,.. "Sit down,.." I stood up
F G Csus4 C G C
OohOoh growin' up
[Verse 2]~
Csus4 C G C Csus4 C G C
The flag of piracy flew from my mast,.. my sails were set wing to wing
Csus4 C G C Csus4 C G C
I had a jukebox graduate for first mate,.. she couldn't sail but she sure could sing
F C G C F C G C
I pushed B-52 and bombed them with the blues with my gear set stubborn on standing
F C G C F C G C F C F
I broke all the rules,.. strafed my old high school,.. never once gave thought to landing
G F Am
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd,.. but when they said,.. "Come down,.." I threw up
F G Csus4 C G C
OohOoh growin' up

[Verse 3]~
Csus4 C G C Csus4 C G C
I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere,.. and you know it's really hard to hold your breath
Csus4 C G C Csus4 C G C
I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared,.. I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress
F C G C F C G C
Well,.. my feet they finally took root in the earth,.. but I got me a nice little place in the stars
F C G C F C G C F C F
And I swear I found the key to the universe in the engine of an old parked car
G F Am
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd,.. but when they said,.. "Pull down,.." I pulled up
F G Csus4 C G C
OohOoh growin' up
F G Csus4 C G C
OohOoh growin' up
[Outro]~
