[Intro]
G D Em D C D
[Verse 1]
G Em D
Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
C D
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
G D Em D
Your little eyelids flutter 'cause you're dreaming
C D
So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite nightlight
C Em
To you, everything is funny

You got nothing to regret

I'd give all I have, honey

If you could stay like that
[Chorus]

Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little

Oh, darling, don't you ever grow up

No one's ever burned you

Nothing's ever left you scarred

And even though you want to

Just try to never grow up

You're in the car on the way to the movies

At fourteen, there's just so much you can't do

And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots

But don't make her drop you off around the block

Remember she's getting older, too

Don't lose the way that you dance

Around in your PJs getting ready for school

Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
C G D
And memorize what it sounded like whenever I'd get home

Remember the footsteps, remember the words said

And all of your brother's favorite songs

Oh, don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up
