Verse 1:
 G                      G
Do you remember when we moved out?

    Em                            Em
My mum said, "I love you, but it's a small house"

       G
So we changed up and saved up

      G
Gave up our town

         Em
We were dangerous, couldn't tame us

        Em
What's missing now?

 G             G              Em
Time, suddenly we got no time

          Em            G
We're so busy doing life

        G                   Em        Em
That I miss your eyes on mine, mine


Pre-Chorus:
    G                     Am
If you just focus on me

                   C
Like we were sixteen

                    D
And plotting our lives

       G
Can I wear your t-shirt

        Am
And sleep on you

           C                      D
While I dream of all the good times?


Chorus:
                     C    Em     G    D    C    Em
When we were sixteen

 G       D                C    Em     G    D    C    Em
 Like we were sixteen

 G       D
 Like we were sixteen


Verse 2:
 G                     G
Do you remember the teacher said

        Em                             Em
You're too young, too stupid, don't lose your head

     G                                    G
But years gone and we held on with the best intent

     Em                     N.C.
Just two kids who kicked it on MSN
 G             G              Em
Time, suddenly we got no time

          Em            G
We're so busy doing life

        G                   Em        Em
That I miss your eyes on mine, mine


Pre-Chorus:
    G                     Am
If you just focus on me

                   C
Like we were sixteen

                    D
And plotting our lives (When we were plotting our lives)

       G
Can I wear your t-shirt

        Am
And sleep on you

           C                      D
While I dream of all the good times?


Chorus:
                     C    Em     G    D    C    Em
When we were sixteen

 G       D                C    Em     G    D    C    Em
 Like we were sixteen

 G       D
 Like we were sixteen


Bridge:
 Em                                 G
 Let's take the love that we found

                          D
And give it back to ourselves


Sometimes these things don't work out
 D
 Sometimes there'll be no one else

 Am                            G
 They said we'd never even make it this far

              D
But here we are

                 D
We're still counting stars


Like we were sixteen

Chorus:
                  C    Em     G    D    C    Em
Like we were sixteen

 G           D             C    Em     G    D    C
 Oh, when we were sixteen

 Em                 G                 D               C    Em     G    D    C
We're still counting stars like we were sixteen

 Em                 G                 D
We're still counting stars like we were sixteen
