Capo: 2nd fret

[Verse 1]
            C
Just turned eighteen
    Em                              Am
And I don't really know what that means
       F                       C
I've still got the same anxiety
    Em                       Am    F
I feel so controlled by society
 
 
[Verse 2]
          C
And my friends
  Em                                    Am
They all seem to know what they wanna be
            F                               C
Got their lives planned five years ahead of me
      Em                            Am            F
And I don't even know about next week
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       C                Em
Sometimes when I think ahead
     Am                    F
It pulls the string around my chest
      C                    Em
Too young to know how to live
    Am
Too old to be a kid
 
 
[Chorus]
                C
I just turned eighteen
     Em                            Am
And I don't want the world to change me
    F                    C
It doesn't take a lot to break me
         Em                       Am    F
'Cause I don't recognize me lately
                C
I just turned eighteen
     Em                            Am
Oh, one more year of this world turning
    F                    C
It's just another candle burning
       Em                 Am    F
But my reality is hurting
N.C. 
Just turned eighteen
 
 
[Verse 3]
    C
I'm off track
  Em                        Am
Gotta wish that I could go back
      F                      C
And live another day in my past
  Em                Am    F
Calling to my youth
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       C                Em
Sometimes when I think ahead
     Am                    F
It pulls the string around my chest
      C                    Em
Too young to know how to live
    Am
Too old to be a kid
 
 
[Chorus]
                C
I just turned eighteen
     Em                            Am
And I don't want the world to change me
    F                    C
It doesn't take a lot to break me
         Em                       Am    F
'Cause I don't recognize me lately
                C
I just turned eighteen
     Em                            Am
Oh, one more year of this world turning
    F                    C
It's just another candle burning
       Em                 Am    F
But my reality is hurting
N.C. 
Just turned eighteen
N.C. 
Just turned eighteen
 
 
[Bridge]
             C
Just turned eighteen
        Em                            Am
And I don't really know what that means
    F                    C
I've still got the same anxiety
   Em                          Am        F
I feel so controlled by society, yeah, yeah
 
 
[Chorus]
                C
I just turned eighteen
     Em                            Am
And I don't want the world to change me
    F                    C
It doesn't take a lot to break me
         Em                       Am    F
'Cause I don't recognize me lately
(I don't recognize me lately)
                C
I just turned eighteen
     Em                            Am
Oh, one more year of this world turning
    F                    C
It's just another candle burning
       Em                 Am    F
But my reality is hurting
                        C    Em     Am        F
Just turned eighteen
(Happy birthday to me)
 
                C    Em     Am        F
Just turned eighteen
N.C.
Just turned eighteen
(Happy birthday to me)
 
 
[Outro]
N.C.
I just turned eighteen
              Just turned 18
And I don't really know what that means
I still got the same anxiety
I feel so controlled by society

And my friends
They all seem to know what they wanna be
Got their lives planned five years ahead of me
And I don't even know 'bout next week

Sometimes when I think ahead
It pulls a string around my chest
Too young to know how to live
Too old to be a kid

I just turned 18
And I don't want the world to change me
It doesn't take a lot to break me
'Cause I don't recognise me lately

I just turned 18
Oh, one more year of this world turning
It's just another candle burning
But my reality is hurting
Just turned 18

I'm off-track
Gotta wish that I could go back
And live another day in my past
Calling to my youth

Sometimes when I think ahead
It pulls a string around my chest
Too young to know how to live
Too old to be a kid

I just turned 18
And I don't want the world to change me
It doesn't take a lot to break me
'Cause I don't recognise me lately

I just turned 18
Oh, one more year of this world turning
It's just another candle burning
But my reality is hurting
Just turned 18

Just turned 18

Just turned 18
And I don't really know what that means
I still got the same anxiety
I feel so controlled by society
Yeah, yeah

I just turned 18
And I don't want the world to change me
It doesn't take a lot to break me
'Cause I don't recognise me lately (I don't recognise me lately)

I just turned 18
Oh, one more year of this world turning
It's just another candle burning
But my reality is hurting
Just turned 18

Just turned 18
(Happy birthday to me)
Just turned 18
