[Verse 1]
G#m Em F#m
I can recall, sittin' alone
F#
The last one left to leave
B7
So you had asked me if you could walk me home
G#m7 C#m Em D#m
And, I can still hear that school bell ring
F#m7 B7
And no one else could tell my frown was hidden by a grin
[Pre-Chorus]
A D
All those memories we shared
G# G#m7 C#7
All the streets we used to roam
F#m7
Are the pigments that you painted
B E B
Now my world's not monochrome
[Chorus]
F#m7
Back when we were younger
B B7
And our dreams were unexplored
Emaj7
We just needеd each other
Fm
Couldn't evеr ask for more
C#m F#m7
Oh, nobody had flaws
B B7
And nothing had a cause
Emaj7 Fmaj7 Emaj7
When we were younger (Mhm)
[Verse 2]
G#m
Yes, I recall
Gm G
What started it all
F#m7 B
Our endless conversation about future occupation
G#m7
And we, we couldn't be seen
Gm G
Got so lost in our dreams
F#m7 A F#7
Askin' "Where did the time go?"
B
It used to move so slow"
N.C.
(Wait a minute could you slow it down please?)
[Pre-Chorus]
Amaj7 Dmaj7
But those memories we shared
G#m7 C#7
All the streets we used to roam
F#m7
Are the pigments that you painted
B B7
Now my world's not monochrome
[Chorus]
F#m7 F#m
Back when we were younger
B7
And our dreams were unexplored
Emaj7
We just needed each other
Fm
Couldn't ever ask for more
C#m F#m7
Oh, nobody had flaws
B
And nothing had a cause
Emaj7 Fmaj7 Emaj7
When we were younger (Mhm)

I can recall sitting alone
The last one left to leave
So you had asked me if
You could walk me home and
I can still hear
That school bell ring
And no one else could tell my frown
Was hidden by a grin
All those memories we shared
All the streets we used to roam
Are the pigments that you painted
Now my world's not monochrome
Back when we were younger
And our dreams were unexplored
We just needed each other
Couldn't ever ask for more
Oh, nobody had flaws
And nothing had a cause
When we were younger, hmm
Yes I recall
What started it all
Our endless conversation about
Future occupation and we
We couldn't be seen
Got so lost in our dreams
Asking where did the time go
It used to move so slow
(Wait just a minute would you slow down please)
But those memories we shared
All the streets we used to roam
Are the pigments that you painted
Now my world's not monochrome
Back when we were younger
And our dreams were unexplored
We just needed each other
Couldn't ever ask for more
Oh, nobody had flaws
And nothing had a cause
When we were younger, hmm
Back when we were younger
And our dreams were unexplored
We just needed each other
Couldn't ever ask for more
Oh, nobody had flaws
And nothing had a cause
When we were younger, hmm
When we were younger
When we were young
We always wished we could grow faster
When we were younger
I wish I took my time
When we were young
Look at where we are now
Oh how the time flies by
When we were young
Back when we were younger
When we were young
