[Verse 1]
D#/G G# Cm A#Lookin' in the mirror and you don't look the same
D#/G G# Cm A#Girls from your past getting new last names
D#/G G# Cm A# D#/G G#High school friends burning out like their cigarettes
Cm A# D#/G G# Cm A#Guess that's what happens the older you get
D#/G G# Cm A#Start to wish you could've been sixteen forever
D#/G G# Cm A#'Cause you know your favorite band ain't getting back together
D#/G G# Cm A# D#/G G#And the nights you don't remember are the nights that you'll never forget
Cm A# D#/G G# Cm A# D#/G G# Cm A#Guess that's what happens the older you get
[Chorus]
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#Oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#And oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
D#/G G# Cm A#Life's goin' good but you wonder what's after
D#/G G# Cm A#'Cause dad's moving slower and time's moving faster
D#/G G# Cm A# D#/G G#You hug a little tighter and you say the things you never said
Cm A#Guess that's what happens
D#/G G# Cm A#Sometimes the cancer goes away and sometimes it don't
D#/G G# Cm A#So now when your momma calls you always pick up the phone
Cm A#/D D# Fm Cm A#And you talk a little longer 'cause tomorrow is not a sure bet
D#/G G#Oh, oh
[Chorus]
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#Oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#And oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh

Cm A# Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# A#Guess that's what happens the older you get
[Bridge]
D#/G G# Cm A#The house you grew up in is now gettin' sold
D#/G G# Cm A#And a box full of memories is worth more than gold
D#/G G# Cm A# D#/G G#You close your eyes one last time in your childhood bed
Cm A#Guess that's what happens, what happens oh
D#/G G# Cm A#Home was a place, now home is a person
D#/G G# Cm A#And you're lookin' at rings 'cause you swear that you're certain
Cm A#/D D# Fm Cm A#And the best day of your life becomes the day that the two of you met
D#/G G#Guess that's what happens the older you get
[Chorus]
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#Oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#And oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# Cm A#And oh, that's just the way that it goеs, oh-oh
Cm G# D# A# D#/G G# A#And oh, that's just the way that it goеs
