Back When We Were Young

C  G

[Chorus]
G                 C              
Back when we were young everybody
         G
 came to see us
                    D              
Everybody wanted to be us back when
         G
 we were young
                    C         
We loved each other so all our 
                  G
friends told one another
                      D         
And we even told each other back 
              G
when we were young

[Verse]
G
It was laughin' it was dancin'
       C                     
It was cigarettes and bourbon 
          G
flavored kisses
       D
It was alligator shoes and new blue 
suits
                        G
And anything that money wishes

It was sittin' up all night and 
waitin'
C                           
For the dawn to bring another 
  G
wondrous day
       D
It was holding hands and thinking
That tomorrow is a million years 
G
away

[Chorus]
G                 C              
Back when we were young everybody
         G
 came to see us
                    D              
Everybody wanted to be us back when
         G
 we were young
                    C         
We loved each other so all our 
                  G
friends told one another
                      D         
And we even told each other back 
              G
when we were young

[Verse]
G
It was rolling sevens every time
    C                          G
And thinking it was never ever gonna
 end
     D
Back then we even thought of time 
itself
                        G
As being something of a passing 
friend
It was buyin' one another things we 
C
didn't need
                      G
And birthdays were so corny
     D
Back then we even had some friends
                        G
Live as far away as California
                  C
Back when we were young
