When I was young I used to wake up early in the morning

When I was young I could climb up a mountain didn't matter how tall

When I was young I could talk about love but I didn't know a thing

When I was young I didn't worry about the things I couldn't understand
C7C7                            FF
When I was young I didn't know anything about hurtin' and healin'
