Intro: Cadd9 D Em7 D 

verse 1 

Cadd9   D                                                   Em7 
Young, we were so young when we thought that we knew how to love 
 D                                             Cadd9    D 
Fought about anything, everything that did it's function 
                               Em7                        D 
But we just gotta own that shit, don't let it go like this 

Maybe we can go from this yeah 

 
Cadd9                            D 
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car 
   Em7                                 D 
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard 
  Cadd9                                     D 
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar 
Em7                                     D 
Don't worry my love, we're learning to love 
                               Cadd9 D Em7 D 
But it's hard when you're young 
                                Cadd9 D Em7 D 
Yeah it's hard when you're young 


verse 2 

Cadd9    D                                                 Em7 
Caught, we were caught up in the high, it was better than drugs 
 D                                           Cadd9   D 
Too high to see that it would all lead to destruction 
                               Em7                          D 
At least we both know that shit, we just gotta own that shit 

I hope that we can go from this yeah 

Cadd9                            D 
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car 
   Em7                                 D 
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard 
  Cadd9                                     D 
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar 
Em7                                     D 
Don't worry my love, we're learning to love 
                               Cadd9 D Em7 D 
But it's hard when you're young 
                                Cadd9 D Em7 
Yeah it's hard when you're young 
 D 
Yeah, yeah it's hard when you're young
