[Intro]
G   Gsus4   G   Gsus4


[Verse 1]
G
Broken cars, old guitars
G
Waiting here for the time to pass,
Em                              C
Time takes it toll - it took it fast
G
Secret meetings at the river's bend
Em
Simple days when I called you friend
C                             D
Came a time, we went separate ways


[Chorus]
               G
Those were our young years
               G
Our wings were drying in the sun
         Em            D               C
Now the winter, at our window feels so cold
              G
Where are our young years


[Verse 2]
G
Everything seemed better days
G
Boats in which we sailed away 
Em                      C
Lie all rusted on rocky ground
G 
Here we sit with a schooner of ale
Em
Dreaming of a wind that'll make us sail
D
Taking us far away
         C
Do you remember how it was?
           Am
We had the moon and tide behind us
           C          D 
We used to take it up take it up!


[Chorus]
               G
Those were our young years
               G
Our wings were drying in the sun
         Em            D               C
Now the winter, at our window feels so cold

            G
Back in our young years
            G
Sometimes the good did not die young
Em             D        C
Now we live on memories alone
       G
Of our young years

[Bridge]
              Am
If we had the moon and tide behind us
               G/B
We could still sail so far away
    C
And time would pass, And things would change
    Dsus4                 D
And memories would fade away


[Chorus]
               G
Those were our young years
               G
Our wings were drying in the sun
         Em            D               C
Now the winter, at our window feels so cold

            G
Back in our young years
             G
Sometimes the good did not die young
Em             D        C
Now we live on memories alone


               G
Those were our young years
              G
You know we'll live it all again
       Em           D         C
We can turn the tide and sail away
            G
Back to our young years
G
Those were our young years
