[Verse 1] 
 C                      G
Sit down with an old friend
      Am                    F
Like time had never stopped
           C               G
From the cradle to the coffin
     Am                F
We drink until we drop
           C                           G                   Am     F
Yeah, we grew up on the same street, small town under the hill, yeah
      C                              G                         Am   F
But dreams get lost and buried down deep inside the soil there,   yeah


[Pre-Chorus]
     C
All day, all night
       G
Keep pressing rewind
     Am
All day, all night
     F
I remember
     C
All day, all night
       G
Keep pressing rewind
     Am
All day, all night
     F
I remember


[Chorus]
         C
We were young, we were wild
         G
We were halfway free
         Am                   F 
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
         C                   G
Looking back in my rearview mirror
              Am                       F
You know the view used to be much clearer
        C                            G
But we laugh and we cry til there’s no more tears
        Am                    F               C      G
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
    Am    F
18 years


[Verse 2]
 C                        G
Some ran down the highway
     Am                    F
To chase away their ghosts
           C                  G   
Some are frozen in the same place
      Am                      F
This town inside their bones
            C                  G                    Am      F
Remember throwing TV’s off the overpass on to the tracks, yeah
      C                          G                         Am     F
But trains roll on through the small towns and never look back, yeah


[Pre-Chorus]
     C
All day, all night
       G
Keep pressing rewind
     Am
All day, all night
     F
I remember
     C
All day, all night
       G
Keep pressing rewind
     Am                    F
All day, tell me do you remember?


[Chorus]
         C
We were young, we were wild
         G
We were halfway free
         Am                   F 
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
         C                   G
Looking back in my rearview mirror
              Am                       F
You know the view used to be much clearer
        C                            G
But we laugh and we cry til there’s no more tears
        Am                    F               C      G
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?
    Am    F
18 years


[Post-Chorus]
        C         
Can we just hold on?
        G
Can we just hold on?
        Am
Can we just hold on? 
F
 To those 18 years
        C         
Can we just hold on?
        G
Can we just hold on?
        Am           F
Can we just hold on? 
    C     G
18 years
    Am            F
18 years, yeah eh eh


[Bridge]
         C
We were young, we were wild
         G
We were halfway free
         Am                   F 
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
          C                        G
We were building a bridge out of broken dreams
          Am                           F
We were crashing like cars and we were 18


[Chorus]
         C
We were young, we were wild
         G
We were halfway free
         Am                   F 
We were kids on the run on a dead-end street
         C                   G
Looking back in my rearview mirror
              Am                       F
You know the view used to be much clearer
        C                            G
But we laugh and we cry til there’s no more tears
        Am                    F              
Yeah tonight can we just hold on to those 18 years?


[Outro]
        C         
Can we just hold on?
        G
Can we just hold on?
        Am           
Can we just hold on?
    F
Oh yeah, to those 18 years
        C         
Can we just hold on?
        G
Can we just hold on?
        Am           
Can we just hold on?
F
Oh, to those 18 years
