[Verse 1] BF# I saw a photograph from ten years back E It's you and I, we're standin' in the rain BF# Somewhere outside Atlanta, and I think my twelve-seat van E Is right there out of frame
[Pre-Chorus] B This was before I knew my way around Los Angeles F#E Before I ever cared about nice neighborhoods Bmaj7F# We were drivin' through the night, sleepin' on hotel floors E And thinkin' that we had it good
[Chorus] BC#m7 We were kids back then, thinkin' we could live forever E We were kids back then (you and me) BC#m7 We were wild and free, takin' on the world together E We were kids back then N.C. That's how we're always gonna be
[Post-Chorus] B La la la, la la la la C#m La la la, la la la la E La la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la la
[Verse 2] BF# Passed an old friend on my timeline who had lately been on my mind E We were close as blood BF# If we sat down for a drink I think we'd forget all the stupid reasons E We lost touch (we lost touch)
It was just because
[Chorus] BC#m7 We were kids back then, thinkin' we could live forever E We were kids back then (you and me) BC#m7 We were wild and free, takin' on the world together E We were kids back then

[Post-Chorus] B La la la, la la la la C#m7 La la la, la la la la E La la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la
[Bridge] F#G#mE All you got to do is blink your eyes and the years go by like that B They fly right past F#G#mE I don't want to wait to realize everything that you and I
Already have
[Verse 3] BF# Five-thirty in the mornin', and we're awake again E You are holdin' baby Jane BF# I lean in to take a picture, when it hits me E In twenty years, I will look back and say
[Chorus] B We were kids back then, thinkin' we would live forever E We were kids back then B We're so young and free, takin' on the world together E We were kids back then
That's how we're always gonna be
[Interlude] BC#mE
[Chorus] BC#m7 We were kids back then, thinkin' we could live forever E We were kids back then (you and me) BC#m7 We were wild and free, takin' on the world together E We were kids back then
That's how we're always gonna be
[Post-Chorus] B La la la, la la la la C#m7 La la la, la la la la E La la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la la (that's how we're always gonna be)
