[Verse 1]
Repeat Riff 1
I stood stone-like at midnight suspended in my masquerade

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
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone and came out with my soul untouched
F   G                                                  F                      Am
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd but when they said "sit down" I stood up
F    G7  Riff 1 (or play 2x | F C | G C |)
Ooh-ooh growin' up

[Verse 2]
Repeat Riff 1
The flag of piracy flew from my mast, my sails were set wing to wing 

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 `em with the blues with my gear set stubborn on standing
  F             C                 G        C             F    C    G          C       F C
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    G7  Riff 1 (or play 2x | F C | G C |)
Ooh-ooh growin' up

             |     3x    | 2x | 
[Piano Solo] | F C | G C | Am | F | G | Riff 1

[Verse 3]
Repeat Riff 1
I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere and you know it's really hard to hold your breath.

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
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    G7    F     C G C
Ooh-ooh growin' up
F    G7    F     C | G C | F C G | G 
Ooh-ooh growin' up

    C   F   G   G7  Am
