[Intro 1]
[D][A][F#m][D]

[Verse 1]
What [D]do you know?
Suddenly, [A]you're [D]older now
They call you a grown up
With the dog and the [A]bills
and the [D]garden
And the [G]pictur[A]esque [D]house
And the pear [A]tree [D]is
budding up a third year
And if your mother were still here
[A]The fallen blossom[D]s on the lawn
would all disappear
And you're in love,
you pray to God it's forever
But you look [Bm]around and [G]think,
"Why try altogether[D]?"
But he's [G]endless and on my
skin [A]like sand on the shore
[D]

[Verse 2]
And [C]that's enough for me right [G]now,
anyway, at [D]twenty-four

[Verse 3]
[A]You [D]You travel the world,
swim under a [G]waterfall
[A]You hav[D]e everything you ever
[A]wanted
You wonder when your [G]dad [D]will [G]call[D]
Then you're in New [G]York again
[D]with you[A]r oldest friend
And the [D]basket of bread's [A]still [Bm]warm
[A]And

[Verse 4]
[C]that's enough for me [Bm]right [G]now,
anyway, at twenty-four

[Verse 5]
[D]Oh, [G]Oh,[A][D][A]
[Bm]I kn[C]ow more than I ever [G]have
And yet I know [Bb]nothing [F]at all[G]
I'm a floating feather[Bb],
I'm a con[F]stant [G]cannonball (cannonball)
[Gm]I'm somebody's [Bb]baby and someone
[F]else's midnight [G]call (midnight call)
I know more than I ever [Bb]have and yet,
[F]not[G]hing at all
[D]

[Verse 6]
Well, what do you know?
Sud[G]denly, [A]you're twenty-[D]four

[Outro 1]
twenty-four
