Cadd9 D Em7
Young, we were so young when we thought that we knew how to love
D Cadd9 D
Fought about anything, everything led to dysfunction
Em7 D
But we just gotta own that shit, don't let it go like this
Maybe we can go from this yeah
[Chorus 1]
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

Cadd9 D Em7
Caught, we were caught up in the high, it was better than drugs

I hope that we can go from this yeah
