Em Am
We got married early, and just a little bit late
Em Am
The baby came too early, but some things just can't wait
G Bm
We were just beginning, but it was very clear
C D Em
We grew up a little bit that year
Em Am
I caught on as a meter man, you were caught at home
Em Am
When I started night school, you ended up alone
G Bm
But you had another baby, while I had my career
C Em G Bm
And we grew up a little bit, we grew up a little bit
C D Em
We grew up a little bit that year
G Em
They put me in an office job, the young man on the move
Bm G
We bought a house in Shaker Heights, you supervised the move
F7M Em
We were cashin' checks, you were changin' children, while I played engineer
C D Em
And we were growin' ever faster every year
Em Am
I got bored of kilowatts, you were tired of kids
Em Am
I started staying out at night and soon that's what you did
G Bm
At parties we'd go separately, you'd wiggle and I'd lear
C Em G Bm
And we were growin' faster, we were growin' ever faster
C D Em
We were growin' ever faster every year
Em Am
You learned to live in silence, I learned to live in lies
Em Am
And we both ignored the empty spaces growin' in our eyes
G Bm
Your breath became a gin and tonic, mine became a beer
C D Em
And we grew up a little more last year
G Em
Today at work they passed me by and promoted John instead
Bm G
I came home to find you'd wrecked the car, I guess I lost my head
F7M Em
Well I can't believe I hit you, but the rage came on so strong
C D C7M
Aw, where did we go wrong?
Em Am
As you sit there crying, I wonder who you are
Em Am
The partner, stranger, friend and foe who's come with me this far
G Bm
We stand here in the ashes, and I guess it is quite clear
C D D/E D/F# D/G D/C D/D
We did not really grow too much each year
Em Am
So you say we're going no where, well I know that's where we've been
Em Am
Still I can't help wonderin' can we begin again?
G Bm
I feel so full of questions, curiosity, and fear
C Em G Bm
But could we grow a little bit, could we grow a little bit
C D Em
Can we grow a little bit this year?
