Verse 1:
        F                 C
We took time to see the sun
         F                C
Crossing rivers as we’d run
        F                    C        G
Chasing birds down by the?lake?in the mud
         F                    C
We?would climb up in the trees
   F                   C
Up?high among the leaves
        F                C                 G
We were wild and we were free when we were young

And we feel the world at our feet
        Am                G
As time turns we drift away

Wish we were young again

Verse 2:
         F                 C
We built castles in the sand
          F               C
Felt like emperors of the land
       F                     C             G
Making walls to stop the waves from coming up
         F                  C
We found joy in little things
     F              C
Like imaginary scenes
     F                  C              G
Oh I miss the way we were when we were young

Chorus:
             F Am
But now we’re older
      F         Am    G      F
And we feel the world at our feet
        Am                G
As time turns we drift away
          F     Am
And oh how time flies
        F   Am      G      F
Then you realize forgotten dreams
    Am             G
Got lost along the way
                       F   C    F   C    F   C   G
Wish we were young again
                        F
Wish we were young again

Bridge:
            F                  C         F                C
But there’s still so much to see in this life in front of me
     F          C            G
Like pages of a book still unturned
         F              C
We could sail the seven seas
     F           C
Even raise a family
         F                  C                G
We could dream just like we did when we were young

Chorus:
                F Am
‘Cause now we’re older
      F         Am    G      F
And we feel the world at our feet
        Am                G
As time turns we drift away
          F     Am
And oh how time flies
        F   Am      G      F
Then you realize forgotten dreams
    Am             G
Got lost along the way

Wish we were young again
                        F
Wish we were young again
