We Did It When We Were Young Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Bm][D][G][D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]Don't
write me no more [F#m]letters
[D]My mai[G]lbox is full of bom[D]bs
[G]Between you and the koo[D]ks on my block
I don't re[Bm]member the good [D]times
I wasn't [G]there and you were [D]kind
And my [G]wife has some [D]dogs in our yard
And I [G]cannot hold [D]a candle
for [A]every pretty [D]girl[Bm]
We [G]were strangers many [D]hours
And I [A]missed [D]you for so [A]long[Bm]
[D]When we were [Bm]lions, lovers [D]in combat
Faded like your [G]name on those
jeans that I [D]burned
[G]

[Verse 2]
But I am [D]older [A]now[Asus4]
[A]And we [Bm]did it when we were y[G]oung
I am [D]older [A]now[Asus4]
[A]And we [Bm]did it when [D]we were [G]young

[Verse 3]
There are no [Bm]reasons to be[F#m]lieve
[D]I bur[G]ied my faith on the blo[D]ck
With your [G]heart and your [D]clothes
When I [A]find[D]
I don't [Bm]feel you or [F#m]recall
[D]I'll put your bon[G]es out in the yar[D]d
[G]Someone else to be [D]called
and called [A]by[D]
And I [G]cannot hold [D]a candle
for [A]every pretty [D]girl[Bm]
We [G]were strangers [D]many hours
And I [A]missed you for so [D]long
When we were [Bm]lions, lovers in [A]combat
[D]Faded like your nam[G]e on those
jeans that I [D]burned[A]
[G]

[Verse 4]
[Bm]
But I am [D]older [A]now[Asus4]
[A]And we [Bm]did it when we were y[G]oung
I am [D]older [Asus4]now
[A]And we [Bm]did i[G]t [D]when[A] w[Asus4]e[A][Bm]
were [G]young
