When We Were Young chords by Brett Dennen

verse 1:

C
Remember when we were young
        F
We felt like the luckiest ones
      Dm
Nothing to worry about
           G
The whole world was a hand-me-down

C
It's hard to be different
             F
It's even harder when you wanna fit in
         Dm
High school was a catastrophe
        G
It was a failure factory

F
Turn it up, turn it up
G
Turn up your radio loud
C
Don't forget where you come from
F
It's too soon to be proud

F
Remember when
G            F
We... were... young
F
Remember when
G            F    C
We... were... young


verse 2:

C
Remember when we were broke
      F
Money would come and go
          Dm
The whole world is a hand-me-down
      G
So you gotta wear it proud

C
Whenever I reminisce
        F
I know that the greatest risk
        Dm
Is giving up the fun for pay
        G
I don't want to live that way


F
Oh tear it up, tear it up
G
Tear up that page
C
I don't wanna grow up
F
Don't wanna act my age

F        G
Remember when, we were young

F
Turn it up, turn it up
G
Turn up your radio loud
C
Don't forget where you come from
F
It's too soon to be proud

F        G
Remember when, we were young
F        G
Remember when, we... were... young...
