These are Coming Of Age chords by Maisie Peters on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
C                       
Your face in fluorescent
       Am
 looks different in the 
daylight
     C                   
Like was it a love affair 
    Am
or just a lot of late nights?
     C                   
Like you had the speaking
             Am
 parts but I guess I 
was the playwright
C        Am
Oh, oh-woah
C                    
I couldn't escape you 
          Am
like the airwaves of 
the bassline
      C                 
And I couldn't erase you
        Am
 like a tattoo on my waistline
C                     
If it was a first kiss, 
           Am
how come it felt like 
a snakebite?
C        Am
Oh, oh-woah
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I wish I woulda seen it sooner

[Chorus]
G               C
Why did it take me 
(Oh, oh, oh)
G            C
Ages to say it?
(Oh, oh, oh)
G                C
I wasn't your cliché
    Em       D     C
Oh, no, this is my coming
 of age
[Post-chorus]
G
Oh, oh, my coming of age
G
Oh, oh, my coming of age
[Verse 2]
C                       
I'm caught in new ground
       Am
 and I'm burning all your CDs
  C                  
Baby, I am the Iliad, 
    Am
of course you couldn't read me
   C                    
So I'll leave you behind,
      Am
 but that don't mean it's easy
C        Am
Oh, oh-woah (Oh, oh, oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
G
I wish I woulda seen it sooner
[Chorus]
G               C
Why did it take me (Oh, oh, oh)
G            C
Ages to say it? (Oh, oh, oh)
G                C
I wasn't your cliché
    Em       D     C
Oh, no, this is my coming of age
G C x2

[Bridge]
  G
I send my silence away
G
Printing my blood on the page
G
You stole my love and I paid
G                    
But you couldn't keep 
                      Em
what you couldn't take
  D      C
I know I made you the big star
Em          C
  I let you butcher my big heart
    D       C             Em
But it's my song and my stage
    D       C          Em
And it's my coming of age
[Chorus]
G               C
Why did it take me (Oh, oh, oh)
G            C
Ages to say it? (Oh, oh, oh)
G                C
I wasn't your cliché
    Em       D     C
Oh, no, this is my coming of age
[Outro]
G                  C
I wish I could've seen it, God
G                 C
I wish I could've seen it, God
G                 C
I wish I could've seen it, God
           D              
But God, I wish I could've
      C
 seen it, God
