(B flatadd9) And when I grow up,
I will eat (F/A) sweets everyday
On the way (G minor) to work

when the sun (A minor) comes up, and I
will watch car (G minor) toons
until my eyes go square

(D minor) When I (C major) grow (B flatadd9) up

(F major) When I grow up, when I grow (C major) up
(when I grow up)
I will be (B flatadd9) strong enough
to carry all the (G minor7) heavy things
you have to haul around (F major) with you,

Outro 1
When I grow (up)
(B flatadd9) Just because you find that life's not fair
It (F/A) doesn't mean
that you just have to grin and bear it
(G minor) If you always take it on the chin and wear it
(F major) Nothing will change (When I grow up)
(B flatadd9) Just because I find myself in this story
It (F/A) doesn't mean
that everything is written for me
(G minor) If I think the ending is fixed already
I (C major) might as well be saying
I (A/Db) think that it's ok
And (A7) that's not (D minor) right
