Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramE minorEm  Chord diagramC majorC      Chord diagramD MajorD
 We headed straight south in a sundown light
Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramE minorEm  Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramD MajorD
 On highway 61 through the delta night
Chord diagramG+G       Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramD MajorD
 We shared the backroads with cardsharks and grifters
Chord diagramG+G      Chord diagramE minorEm      Chord diagramC majorC     Chord diagramD MajorD
 Tent show evangelists and Luke the Drifter
[Bridge]
Hm      Chord diagramE minorEm
What is lost what is missing
Chord diagramAm7Am7        Chord diagramD7D7
What's been gone way too long

[Chorus]
Chord diagramG+G       D\F#        Chord diagramC majorC
We had dreams when the night was young
Chord diagramG+G          D\F#      Chord diagramC majorC
We were believers when the night was young
Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramG+G D\F#
We could change the world stop the war
Chord diagramC majorC
Never seen nothing like this before
Chord diagramAm7Am7            Chord diagramD7D7
But that was back when the night was young

[Verse]
Sign reads God Bless America guns and ammo
I'm not sure that's what He means
Sign reads repent the end is near
I'm not sure that's what we need
[Bridge]
Get your heart beating in the right direction
That's when you make a real connection

[Chorus]
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was back when the night was young

[Verse]
Now Andy Warhol's in the hotel lobby
He's waiting for the late night muse
But she won't be back before morning
She's gone downtown to hear some blues
[Bridge]
Like the sun rising out of the sea
It's how you embrace the mystery
[Chorus](sing twice)
We had dreams when the night was young
We were believers when the night was young
We could change the world stop the war
Never seen nothing like this before
But that was way back when the night was young

End with Chord diagramG+G

THE END!
