The Summer Set - The Night Is Young

      [Verse 1]
 C                                 G    Am
What happened to the homecoming king?
 C                F              G   Am
She thinks about him every September
 C                              G   A
Woke up from the American Dream
 C           F                G    Am
Needing another night to remember

[Pre-Chorus]
 C              F           G    Am
One with magic under the mirror ball
           c          F          G      Am
Making memories and love in his car
          c          F            G     Am
No, she never wanted to take it slow
           C                   F      G
Sometimes that's just how the story goes

[Chorus]
        C   F          G   Am
Don't give up when you're down
             C           F              G       Am
Don't look back on your life like it's over now
        c              f          g        Am
Sure, we're all gonna die, the time will come
     C         F                  G
And maybe the old days are gone
                   C       F      G     Am
But the night is young

C    F    G    Am

[Verse 2] 
            C                      G      Am
"What you drinking? Son have a seat,"
    C             F           g      Am
He said to me and ordered another
      c                    G         A
He woke up from the American Dream
   C            F           g     a
Alone after the war he discovered

[Pre-Chorus 2]
    C            F            G      A
All the ticker tape and the glory fades
    C             F            G       Am
Life goes on and nothing gold ever stays
    C           F            G        Am
No, he never wanted to take it slow
    C                           F    G
Sometimes that's just how the story goes

[Chorus]
C          F         G     Am
Don't give up when you're down 
             c            F             G       Am
Don't look back on your life like it's over now
        C              F        G          Am
Sure, we're all gonna die, the time will come
     C         F                G
And maybe the old days are gone
                   C       F      G     Am
But the night is young

[Instrumental]
C    F    G    Am

[Bridge]
  G                     Am       C
Kings and queens and soldiers age
     F
You can see the writing on their face;

Played the pawn in every game
  G             Am          C
Quintessential as it seems
             F
When you're looking back at seventeen
Life is but a dream
(Yeah)

[Chorus]
 G     C             G     Am
Don't give up when you're down 
       C                        G                Am
Don't look back on your life like it's over now
       C                        G               Am
Sure, we're all gonna die, the time will come
     C        F          C
And maybe the old days are gone

  F    C           F        G    Am
Don't give up when you're down
        C            F                  G        Am
Don't look back on your life like it's over now
         c             F        G          Am
Sure, we're all gonna die, the time will come
      C        F           G
And maybe the old days are gone
         C         F        G     Am
But the night is young
          C         F            C         F      G   Am
Yeah the night is young, oh the night is young
   C       F         G    Am
Yeah the night is young
   C         Am       C     G     Am      C   Am    C   G
(Yeah the night is young)
