[G]When we were young the world seemed so old
[Em]Careless and cold
We did what we were told in our [C]life[Am]s
When we were yo[D]ung
[G]Had the world by the tail
Good would prevail
[Em]Starships at sail
And none of us would fail in t[C]his li[Am]fe
Not when you’re yo[D]ung

[C]We were drawn to whoever could keep us to[G]gether
And boun[Em]d by the heavens abov[D]e
And we [C]tried to survive tra[G]veling at the speed of l[D]ove

[C]Wo-ooh
When we were [G]young
When we ador[Em]ed the fabulo[D]us
[C]Wo-ooh
When we were [G]young
We were the fo[Em]olish fearles[D]s
Never[C] knowing the cost of wh[Em]at we paid
Letting som[G]eone else be str[D]ong
Wo-oo[C]h
[G]When we we[D]re you[G]ng

[G]In a moment of grace
A long leap of faith
The [Em]still more glorious dawn awaits [C]my li[Am]fe
I’m here with the lo[D]vers

[C]And we burned the bridges
[Em]We’re crossing over
[G]Just to see the f[D]irelight
[C]And the innocent are gett[G]ing over being ol[D]d tonight

[C]Wo-ooh
When we were [G]young
When everything w[Em]as what it seeme[D]d
Wo-o[C]oh
When we were y[G]oung
And every da[Em]y was how we drea[D]med
Never [C]knowing the cost of wh[G]at we paid letting som[Em]eone else be stro[D]ng
[C]Wo-ooh
When [G]we we[D]re you[G]ng

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

[C]Wo-ooh
When we were yo[G]ung  [Em]      [D]

[C]Wo-ooh
When we were yo[G]ung [Em]
When we were yo[D]ung

[C]Wo-ooh
When we were [G]young
When we adore[Em]d the fabulo[D]us
[C]Wo-ooh
When we were y[G]oung
We were the f[Em]oolish fearles[D]s
[C]Wo-ooh
When we were [G]young
We[Em] didn’t know it wouldn’t [D]last
[C]Wo-ooh
[G]When we we[D]re youn[G]g
