Chords to play along with the official lyric video:

An asterisk indicates a single strum. Where I have an Am* in the chorus, this sounds like a stacatto
final strum before moving to the F.
Where I have indicated the G** it sounds like she is sliding up 2 frets from an Fsus2 to the G.
The C/B chords are just a 3-2-0 walkdown from the C to the Am on the A string.
The Am/G is a walkdown from the Am to the F on the low E string.
In the bridge where I have 2 G chords together those are single downstrums before moving to the next chord.

[Verse 1]
They tell you
while you’re y
oung
Girls, go out
and have your
fun
Then they hunt
and slay the
ones
Who actually d
o it
Criticize the
way you fly
When you’re so
aring through
the sky
Shoot you down
and then they
sigh
And say, “She
looks like she
’s been throug
h it”
[Pre-Chorus]
Lord what will
become of me
Once I’ve lost
my novelty
[Chorus]
I’ve had too
much to drink
tonight
And I know it’
s sad but this
is what I thi
nk about
And I wake up
**
in the middle
of the night
It’s like I ca
n feel time mo
ving
How can a per
son know every
thing at 18
But nothing at
twenty-two?
And will you s
till want me
When I’m nothi
ng new?
[Verse 2]
How long will
it be cute
All this cryin
g in my room
When you can’t
blame it on m
y youth
And roll your
eyes with affe
ction
And my cheeks
are growing ti
-i-ired
From turning r
ed and faking
smiles
Are we only bi
ding time 'til
I lose your a
ttention?
[Pre-Chorus]
And someone el
se lights up t
he room
People love an
ingénue
[Chorus]
I’ve had too
much to drink
tonight
How did I go f
rom growing up
to breaking d
own?
And I wake up
**
in the middle
of the night
It’s like I ca
n feel time mo
ving
How can a per
son know every
thing at 18
But nothing at
twenty-two?
And will you s
till want me
When I’m nothi
ng new?
[Bridge]
I know somed
ay I’m gonna m
eet her
It’s a fe-ver
dream
The kind of ra
diance you onl
y have at se-v
en-teen
She’ll know th
e way and then
she’ll say sh
e got the map
from me
I’ll say I’m h
appy for her t
hen I’ll cry m
yself to sleep
[Interlude]
Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh
Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh
-oh Oh-oh Oh
[Outro]
I’ve had (I'
ve had) too mu
ch to drink to
night
But I wonder i
f they’ll miss
me once they
drive me out
I wake up (w
ake up) in the
middle of the
night
And I can feel
time moving
How can a per
son know every
thing at 18
But nothing at
twenty-two?
And will you s
till want me
Will you still
want me
Will you still
want me
When I’m not
hing new?
