The Days of Being Young and Free Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][C][Am][C][Am][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Listen to
my heart as it beats for you
And it's [Am]telling you the things
that I never could.
And it's [Em]laying it down on the line for you.
[G]

[Verse 2]
And the [C]years are catching up,
I can see it on your face.
And [Am]the days of being young and free
Are left there with the memories
that [Em]blow in the wind.
[G]

[Verse 3]
And [F]I can feel it coming when
the [Am]Monday morning blues,
They last [C]all through the week,
I feel it [G]on Sunday too.
And [F]I can feel it coming
when my [Am]knees feel weak
And I [C]can not speak the truth.
[G]

[Verse 4]
The days of be[C]ing young,
the days of being [Am]free.
They're etched upon my [Em]face in
every light that [G]you see.
The stories I [C]could tell,
the lies are told [Am]as well.
What I wouldn't [Em]give
to [G]live it all again.
[C]

[Verse 5]
The years are passing, every single day.
[Am]Where did they go? Did you
take them all away?
Now [Em]I'm older and brave.
[G]

[Verse 6]
And the chil[C]dren,
they all left. They fled their family nest.
And [Am]now we're all alone
And the house don't feel like home any[Em]more,
anymore.
[G]

[Verse 7]
Then [F]I can feel it coming when
[Am]the Monday morning blues,
They last [C]all through the week,
I feel it [G]on Sunday too.
And [F]I can feel it coming when
my [Am]knees feel weak
And [C]I can not speak the truth.
[G]

[Verse 8]
The days of being [C]young,
the days of being [Am]free.
They're etched upon my [Em]face in
every light that [G]you see.
The stories I [C]could tell,
the lies are told [Am]as well.
What I wouldn't [Em]give to [G]live
it all again.
[C][Am][C]

[Verse 9]
And in my [F]baby's eyes I
lived it [Am]all again,
The [C]fear, [G]the surprise, everything.
In my [F]baby's eyes I lived it [Am]all again
And I wouldn't [C]change [G]anything.
And in my [F]baby's eyes I
lived it [Am]all again
And I wouldn't [C]change anything.
[G]
