Am When we were young G Am Oh, when we were young F C G Am We put popcorn on a string and hung it on the sill F C G C Carolers would sing as the night grew still Am And we were poor G Am Back in 1984 F C G Am There were candles on the fireplace and tinsel round the wreath F C G C And a foot of snow on top of the streets Am F C Ooooooooooh Am F C G Ooooooooooh Am F C Ooooooooooh Am F G C Ooooooooooh Am And when I'd grown G Am Like we all must do F C Found myself a sturdy soul G Am To see me through F C G C That was the fall of '92 Am I was strong G Am And from dusk till dawn F C G Am I worked two jobs just to keep the lights on F C G Am I saved up for months to buy a chain F C G C And I gave it to one on Christmas Day G Ooooooooooh Em F C And I found myself alone in the winter cold Am F G C Now my life is filled with things I do not need Am F C But the only thing I want before I'm old Am F G C Won't fit under my christmas tree Am G Am Are we lost to our younger days F C G Am No longer are we able to find that place F C G Am Strangers to the kids we used to know F C G C And I don't decorate my house no more
(Brandi sings this part is a capella,
