When We Were Younger

F  C  Dm  Dm  Gm  F  C  C


[Verse 1]

F                            C
I never really got why we're here
                    Dm                        Dm
Just look at all we build in our lives and we all disappear
Gm                           F
A few of us are born with so much
                 C                                 C
While most of us just chasing down a dream that we just can't touch

F                             C
So why we try so hard in this place?
                             Dm                 Dm
When pain and suffering is a guarantee and happiness is a phase
Gm                           F
I wonder if one day we're at peace
             C                                C
Or will this whole world just become like the middle east?


[Chorus]

                           C                               Dm
But when I (we) was (were) younger, when I (we) was (were) younger
          Bb                    F
I had the answers, I've got to say
F             C                     Dm
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
             Bb                     F
Turned into questions, in front of me


[Verse 2]

F                            C
I wonder where we go when we die
                Dm                 Dm
If there is anything past our lost sun and our sky?
Gm                           F
Cuz airports only take us so high
                    C                           C
Is it hidden in the stars? What's the answer to your soul lying?

F                          C
I wonder do we get to come back
            Dm                    Dm
I wonder if I will remember these questions I've asked
Gm                        F
Or will I just start over again?
                    C                      C
I hope it's not too hard to find all of my old friends.


[Chorus]

                           C                               Dm
But when I (we) was (were) younger, when I (we) was (were) younger
          Bb                    F
I had the answers, I've got to say
F             C                     Dm
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
             Bb                     F
Turned into questions, in front of me


[Verse 3]

F                           C
I wonder if we get one true love
                   Dm                     Dm
Or maybe there's a few out there or maybe not even one
Gm                          F
I wonder if it's made up by man
            C                            C
I wonder if love is what we make with our own two hands

F                              C
I wonder why I write all these songs
                Dm                               Dm
I wonder if you know what you're saying when you sing along
Gm                                 F
And will you know my name when I'm gone?
           C
Or are you just too sick of these love songs?


[Chorus]

                           C                               Dm
But when I (we) was (were) younger, when I (we) was (were) younger
          Bb                   F
I had the answers, I've got to say
F             C                     Dm
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
             Bb                    F
Turned into questions, in front of me


[Chorus]

                           C                               Dm
But when I (we) was (were) younger, when I (we) was (were) younger
          Bb                   F
I had the answers, I've got to say
F             C                     Dm
But all of my answers, now that I'm older
             Bb                    F
Turned into questions, in front of me

F                 C               Dm
Right in front of me, in front of me
           Bb                   F     C     Dm     Bb     F
Everythings changes in front of me
