We Did It When We Were Young

Intro: C#m  G#m  A9  E  A9  E  B

C#m                    G#m
Don't write me no more letters
A9                     E
My mailbox is full of bombs
A9                   E       
Between you and the kooks on my 
    B
block
C#m                  G#m
I don't remember the good times
A9                           E
I wasn't there and you were kind
A9                    E       B
And my wife has some dogs in our 
yard

A9                   E           
And I cannot hold a candle for 
B           C#m
every pretty girl
A9                      E
We were strangers many hours
   B
And I missed you for so long
           C#m                 B
When we were lions, lovers in combat
Continues after the ad
       A9                          
Faded like your name on those jeans
         E    B
 that I burned

E              B
But I am older now
C#m                 A9
And we did it when we were young
E           B
I am older now
C#m                  A9
And we did it when we were young

C#m                  G#m
There are no reasons to believe
    A9                    E
I buried my faith on the block
     A9                      E
With your heart and your clothes
     B
When I find
C#m               G#m
I don't feel you or recall
     A9                         E
I'll put your bones out in the yard
   A9                E            
Someone else to be called and 
   B
called by

A9                   E           
And I cannot hold a candle for 
B           C#m
every pretty girl
A9                      E
We were strangers many hours
   B
And I missed you for so long
           C#m                 B
When we were lions, lovers in combat
       A9                          
Faded like your name on those jeans
         E    B
 that I burned

E              B
But I am older now
C#m                 A9
And we did it when we were young
E           B
I am older now
C#m                  A9
And we did it when we were young
