G
When we were young the world seemed so old
Em
Careless and cold
                                C   Am
We did what we were told in our lifes
               D
When we were young
G
Had the world by the tail
Good would prevail
Em
Starships at sail
                              C     Am
And none of us would fail in this life
                  D
Not when you’re young

C                                        G
We were drawn to whoever could keep us together
        Em                   D
And bound by the heavens above
       C                   G                       D
And we tried to survive traveling at the speed of love

C
Wo-ooh
             G 
When we were young
            Em           D
When we adored the fabulous
C
Wo-ooh
             G 
When we were young
              Em           D 
We were the foolish fearless
     C                      Em
Never knowing the cost of what we paid
           G               D
Letting someone else be strong
     C
Wo-ooh
G         D     G
When we were young

G
In a moment of grace
A long leap of faith
    Em                              C    Am
The still more glorious dawn awaits my life
                    D
I’m here with the lovers

C
And we burned the bridges
Em
We’re crossing over
G                D
Just to see the firelight
C                        G                D
And the innocent are getting over being old tonight

C
Wo-ooh
             G  
When we were young
                 Em              D
When everything was what it seemed
    C
Wo-ooh
              G 
When we were young
            Em               D
And every day was how we dreamed
      C                     G                     Em               D
Never knowing the cost of what we paid letting someone else be strong
C
Wo-ooh
     G    D     G
When we were young



C                   
And when you look at yourself tonight
G   
Are you someone you recognize?
C                                                D
You can take back what you’ve given away but it must be the last time

C
Wo-ooh
               G    Em  D
When we were young

C
Wo-ooh
               G   Em
When we were young
               D
When we were young


C
Wo-ooh
             G 
When we were young
             Em          D
When we adored the fabulous
C
Wo-ooh
              G
When we were young
             Em            D 
We were the foolish fearless
C
Wo-ooh
             G 
When we were young
  Em                       D
We didn’t know it wouldn’t last
C
Wo-ooh
G         D      G
When we were young
