7. A YOUTH WRITTEN IN FIRE
Capo 6!
[Intro]
Am - Am7 Em7
Am - Am7 Em7
Am - Am7 Em7
[Verse]
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
Remember the first time we got high
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
We felt like the rabid lion's roar
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
We were elastic and then we were healed
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
Healed in the blinking of an eye
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
And then when the dawn cracked over us
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
The day wouldn't hit us hard at all
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
We could ride the morning into night again
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
We knew the days were there to waste
[Chorus]
G
But these days
F Em
That light hit so heavy
G
And those days
F Em
Feel like another life
Am G
This isn't like the first time anymore
Em F
And I've been chasing after all
Am G
Digging for the lost memories
Em F
Of our youth written in fire
Am G
You always said it's not too late for me
Em F
I sure am listening to you now
Am G
Leaving me so I can trust myself
Em F
'Cause there's a first time for that too
[Verse]
Am Am7 Em7 Am
Remember the first time that we kissed
Am7 Em7
It felt like a planet forming
Am Am7 Em7 Am
But we were just novices at this
Am7 Em7
It felt like an ancient wisdom
Am Am7 Em7
There was lightning then and those
Am Am7 Em7
Songs were [?] true
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
No wonder I still think so much about you
[Chorus]
G
But these days
F Em
My heart feels too heavy
G
And those days
F Em
Are someone else's life
Am G Em F
Am G Em F
Am G
This isn't like the first time anymore
Em F
And I've been chasing after all
Am G
Digging for the lost memories
Em F
Of our youth written in fire
Am G
You always said it's not too late for me
Em F
I sure am listening to you now
Am G
Leaving me so I can trust myself
Em F
'Cause there's a first time for that too
Am G Em F
Am G Em F
