Intro:
                  Em
If things were different, we were young
                                 C      Am
Skinny dipping, having fun, I remember
        Em
Back in 1991, when this story first begun,
     C          Am
I remember (I remember)


Verse 1:

C                                              Am
All of these shelves, holding the things I've done
C                             Am
I knew myself before I knew anyone
              C
And cause we all chew gum, we all have fun with water guns
             Am
La da da da da da, da da dum dum dum

Chorus:
C                   Am              Em
And whenever the sun came out, we played
(We didn't want to get older, we didn't want to get older)
C                      Am               EM
We would run on the block all night and day
(We didn't want to get older)

Verse 2:
C                                Am
What a mistake, saying the way I felt
C                              Am
I'd say my main influence is myself
C
And cause I started young, I learned a ton, I didn't run

C      Am                  Em
I left myself in the alleyway

If things were different, we were young

Skinny dipping, having fun, I remember

         Em                                            C     Am
All I wanted would become everything I ever loved, I remember
(I left myself in the alleyway)
