                 D               A                 F#m
What's wrong with William Holden Caulfield? Oh yeah

[Verse 1]
A                                 D
All that stuff that bummed me out ten years ago
      A                  C#m          Bm
Still bugs me today, and boy, I wanna know
    A                            D
Who died and made you my mom and me some stupid kid?
A                  C#m       Bm        A
How can you forget all those things we did? {chorus starts overlapping 'did')

[Chrous]
A
So keep on sleeping on
 F#m              D
'Til your hair is grey
E
When I turn eighty
  C#m              A
I better feel this way

[Verse 2]
A                             D
I'm afraid of people who like Catcher in the Rye
A                        C#m             Bm
Yeah, I like it too, but someone tell me why
A                        D
People he'd despise say: I feel like that guy
A                            C#m     Bm      A
I don't wanna grow up, cause I don't wanna die

[Bridge 1]
                    D
When I'm thirty-one
                     F#m
Then keep living on
                E
For fifty more years, so

[Verse 3]
A                    D
I respect the man in Sunset Boulevard
A                           C#m                Bm
Got a heart somewhere, just won't let down his guard
A                              D
Doesn't trust happiness or the bad luck that it brings
     A                        C#m        Bm       A
He's lonely and he's cold and he's proud of these things

[Bridge 1]
                D
I said I'm cold
               F#m
And I'm lonely
                D
I said I'm cold
               D
And I'm lonely
