Because We Are Young chords by Mac Wiseman

C                                  G7
Because we are young they say I'll forget you

                                 C
They say I'll forget that I ever met you

                            C7         F
And maybe they're right but just for tonight

                    C     G7             C
Don't say we're not right because we are young


                   F                   C
Though our love is young we still have control

                D7                 G7
We know we must wait without being told

   C                    C7               F
We still have our pride we've nothing to hide

                C     G7             C
Don't cast love aside because we are young


                                     G7
I know they mean well when they criticize me

                                          C
I wish in their hearts they knew what's inside me

                    C7               F
I know my own heart love must have a start

            C     G7             C
Why keep us apart because we are young


              F                        C
And someday I hope they'll know how we feel

          D7                       G7
When they realize that our love is real

   C                        C7         F
So please hold me tight and just for tonight

                    C     G7             C
Don't say we're not right because we are young
