[Intro]
A D D/C# D/B X4
[Verse 1]
A
Can you remember from way back when
F#m
It was the summer that we became best friends
D E Esus E
And we made a promise that nothing could tear us apart
A
Now we used to hang out behind the old motel
F#m
We`d throw apples at cars and run like hell
D E Esus E
We might`ve had a few close calls, but we never got caught
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm E
But when the sun went down we didn`t go home yet
Bm E
We would lay on the grass and smoke cigarettes
F#m D E
And stare up at the sky and count up all the stars, that`s when
[Chorus]
A F#m D E Esus E
The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever
A F#m D E Esus E
But nothing ever does so we`ll just have to remember
F#m E D D D/C#
Though time slips by, the memories remain
Bm E A D D/C# D/B A D D/C# D/B
I could never forget when the nights were young
[Verse 2]
A
Back then they said that we were way too young
F#m
But we were old enough to have some fun
D E Esus E
And we`d laugh until it hurt and we were both in tears
A
Now we used to stake out the neighborhood liquor store
F#m
We couldn`t go inside for a couple years more
D E Esus E
So we`d send the older kids to sneak a couple of beers
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm E
We didn`t have a care or a worry back then
Bm E
We could count on each other through thick and thin
F#m D E
Nothing could come in between us we swore `till the end, that`s when
[Chorus]
A F#m D E Esus E
The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever
A F#m D E Esus E
But nothing ever does so we`ll just have to remember
F#m E D D D/C#
Though time slips by, the memories remain
Bm E A
I could never forget when the nights were young
Guitar Solo: F#m D E Bm E Bm E F#m D E
[Chorus]
A F#m D E Esus E
The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever
A F#m D E Esus E
But nothing ever does so we`ll just have to remember
A F#m D E Esus E
The nights were young when we thought we’d always be together
A F#m D E Esus E
But we went our separate ways so we’ll just have to remember
F#m E D D D/C#
Though time slips by, the memories remain
Bm E A D D/C# D/B
I could never forget when the nights were young
