When You Were Young Acoustic chords by The Killers

Chords with lyrics

Capo 2 - Tabbed By Darren - I basically took what was already on here, and adapted it so
sounded closer to the original and made it so it can be played on one guitar, or two if
can!!!


D MajorD         E MajorE   F# minorF#m
You sit there in your heart-ache
  A augmentedA       D MajorD
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
 D MajorD        E MajorE    F# minorF#m
To save you from your old ways
 A augmentedA
You play forgiveness
D MajorD
Watch it now here he comes

  D MajorD            E MajorE F# minorF#m
He doesnt look a thing like Je-sus
      A augmentedA
But he talks like a gentleman
 D MajorD
Like you imagined
       E MajorE F# minorF#m
When you*were young
A augmentedA    D MajorD


 D MajorD
Can we climb this mountain
 E MajorE   F# minorF#m
I dont know
 A augmentedA            D MajorD
Higher now than ever before
 D MajorD              E MajorE   F# minorF#m
I know we can make it if we take it slow
 A augmentedA
Let's take it easy
 D MajorD
Easy now, watch it go


 D MajorD               E MajorE F# minorF#m
We're burning down the highway sky-line
     A augmentedA
On the back of a hurricane
 D MajorD
That started turning
        E MajorE F# minorF#m   A augmentedA  D MajorD
When you*were  young
        E MajorE F# minorF#m   A augmentedA  D MajorD
When you**were  young

E MajorE F# minorF#m A augmentedA x2 D MajorD

    D MajorD      E MajorE     F# minorF#m
And sometimes you close your eyes
       A augmentedA           D MajorD
And see the place where you used to live
        E MajorE F# minorF#m   A augmentedA   E MajorE  F# minorF#m
When you were  young

        E#mE#m
They say the devil's water It ain't so sweet
               F# minorF#m
You dont have to drink right now
           A7A7
But you can dip your feet
             E MajorE
Every once in a little while


E,E,F#m,A,E
