[Intro]
G Bm C G -(Change fast)- G/F# Em Am C D
[Verse 1]
G Bm
There's a bear inside your stomach
C G G/F#
The cub's been kicking from within.
Em Am
He's loud, though without vocal chords
C D
We'll put an end to him
G Bm
We'll make all the right appointments
C G - (Change To Next Line fast)
No one ever has to know.
G/F# Em Am
And then tomorrow I'll turn 21
C D
We'll script another show
G Bm
We'll play charades up in the Chelsea
C G G/F#
Drink champagne although you shouldn't be.
Em Am C D
We'll be blind and dumb until we fall asleep
G
None of our friends will come
Bm
They dodge our calls.
C G - (Change To Next Line fast)
And they have for quite a while now
G/F# Em
It's not a shock
Am C D
You don't seem to mind and I just can't see how.
[Chorus]
C Bm
We're too old
Am D
We're not old, old at all
C Bm
Just too old
Am D
We're not old, old, old at all
[Verse 2]
G Bm
There's a bear inside your stomach
C G - (Change To Next Line fast)
The cub's been kicking you for weeks
G/F# Em Am
And if this isn't all a dream
C D
Well then we'll cut him from beneath
G Bm
Well we're not scared of making caves
C G - (Change To Next Line fast)
Or finding food for him to eat
G/F# Em Am
We're terrified of one another
C D
And terrified of what that means
G Bm
But we'll make only quick decisions
C G G/F#
And you'll just keep my in the waiting room
Em Am
And all the while I'll know we're fucked
C D
And not getting unfucked soon
G Bm
When we get home we're bigger strangers
C G - (Change To Next Line fast)
Than we've ever been before
G/F# Em Am C D
You sit in front of snowy television, suitcase on the floor
[Chorus 2]
C Bm
We're too old
Am D
We're not old, old at all.
C Bm
Just too old
Am D
We're not old, old at all.
C Bm
Just too old
Am D
We're not old, old at all.
C Bm
Just too old
Am D
We're not old, old at all.
C Bm
Just too old
Am D
We're not old, old at all.
C Bm
Just too old
Am D
We're not old, old, old at all.

What you're calling "F#" is actually "G/F#"
Please fix this.

I find it's a lot easier to play and sounds closer to the original with a capo on the 7th fret

The chord after the second G is more like a walk-down into the Em than its own part, in case anyone was confused on how to play that section.
