Verse:
A D F#m
Tell me where life goes in such a rush
A D F#m
Like that melted snow in your blue eyes
A D F#m
No one ever could try to tell us
A D F#m
Both were young and full of all our lies
A D F#m
We got in real deep they all could see
A D F#m
Running from the sun casting our shadows
A D F#m
No one trusted us not even me
A D F#m
We hung ourselves to rot upon our gallows
Pre Chorus:
D E F#m
Lies
D E F#m
We built our castles high upon the rise

A D F#m
Oh, so young, young and wild

Oh, so young, young and wild

Verse 2:
A D F#m
Tell me where life goes with some old friends
A D F#m
'Cause we don't see each other anymore
A D F#m
All candles do melt, we burnt both ends
A D F#m
And there is nothing left we have in store
Pre Chorus 2:
D E F#m
Down
D E F#m
I saw myself there lying on the ground
D E F#m
You blew your breath deep into my soul
D E F#m
Where we have been no one will ever know
D E A
Where we have been no one will ever know
