When We Were Younger Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

G Em Bm x6

 When I waGs youngerEm, I alwayBms thought

I could be someone if I tried enough

When I was younger, my father said

Wear a smile, show respect

When I was younger, you never said

When I was older, I'd feel helpless

When I was younger, you shone the light

And now that I'm older, it doesn't shine bright

When I was younger, you always said

That as I got older, you'd always be there

G Em Bm x4

I'm singin' ooohhh

 When I was yGounger, IEm used to Bmcare

About everything that my father said

When I was younger, you even told me

To show evil, the utmost respect

When I was younger, I never thought

That when I was older, I'd see you give up

Now that I'm older, I carry the torch

Just promise you'll stand and you'll be strong

G Em Bm x8

I'm singin' ooohhh

 When I was yGounger, IEm never thBmought

When I was younger, I never thought

That when I was older I'd fight your wars

That when I was older I'd fight your wars

I'll do it for you, I'll do it for you

I'll do it for you, I'll do it for

 When I was yoGunger, I Emonly dreaBmmed

That when I got older, you'd be proud of me

When I was younger, I promised you both

That when I was older, you'd be proud of me

You Me At Six until I die!
