[Verse 1]
We headed straight [Em]south
[Am]in a sundown light[D]
[G]On Hig[Em]hway 61 [Am]through
the delta [D]night[G]
We shared the [Em]back [Am]roads with
card sharks and [D]grift[G]ers
Tent show evan[Em]gelists[Am]
and [D]Luke the Drifter

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
What is [Em]lost? What is
[Am]missing?
What's been [D]gone [C]way too lon[D]g?

[Verse 3]
We had [G]dreams when
[D]the night was [C]young
[D]We were [G]believers when
[D]the night was [C]young
[D]We could [G]change the world stop the [D]war

[G]The sign reads, "God Ble[Em]ss America,
[Am]guns and ammo"[D][G]
I'm not [Em]sure that's what
He [Am]means[D][Am][D]
[G]The sign readsm "Repen[Em]t
[Am]the end is near"[D][G]
I'm not [Em]sure that's what
we need

Get your heart [Em]beating in
the right [Am]direction
That's when you [D]make
[C]a real con[D]nection

[Verse 6]
We had [G]dreams when [D]the night was [C]young

[Verse 7]
(Say) Now [Em]Andy
[Am]Warhol's in the hotel lobb[D]y
[G]He's waiting for[Em] the late

[G]But she won't be bac[Em]k
[Am]before morning[D]
[G]She's gone dow[Em]ntown to hear
[Am]some Blues (to[Dsus4]hear some [D]Blu[Bm]e)

[Verse 8]
Like the sun [Em]rising out of the sea
[Am]It's how you embra[C]ce the mystery
[D]We had dreams

[G]when the
[D]night [C]was young
[D]We were be[G]lievers when the
