FireHouse – The Nights Were Young (Guitar)

A
  Can you remember from way back when

         F#m
It was the summer that we became best friends

      D                                           E   Esus E
And we made a promise that nothing could tear us apart

              A
Now we used to hang out behind the old motel

         F#m
We`d throw apples at cars and run like hell

           D                                       E      Esus E
We might`ve had a few close calls, but we never got caught

             Bm                      E
But when the sun went down we didn`t go home yet

         Bm                    E
We would lay on the grass and smoke cigarettes

     F#m             D                        E
And stare up at the sky and count up all the stars, that`s when

A                  F#m                       D               E      Esus E
  The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever

A              F#m          D                  E      Esus E
  But nothing ever does so we`ll just have to remember

       F#m                 E        D     D D/C#
Though time slips by, the memories remain

        Bm            E                    A    D D/C# D/B A D D/C# D/B
I could never forget when the nights were young

A
  Back then they said that we were way too young

           F#m
But we were old enough to have some fun

        D                                         E   Esus E
And we`d laugh until it hurt and we were both in tears

              A
Now we used to stake out the neighborhood liquor store

          F#m
We couldn`t go inside for a couple years more

         D                                        E   Esus E
So we`d send the older kids to sneak a couple of beers

        Bm                  E
We didn`t have a care or a worry back then

        Bm                            E
We could count on each other through thick and thin

F#m                           D                          E
    Nothing could come in between us we swore `till the end, that`s when

A                  F#m                       D               E      Esus E
  The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever

A              F#m          D                  E      Esus E
  But nothing ever does so we`ll just have to remember

       F#m                 E        D     D D/C#
Though time slips by, the memories remain

        Bm            E                    A
I could never forget when the nights were young

A                  F#m                       D               E      Esus E
  The nights were young and we thought that they would last forever

A              F#m          D                  E      Esus E
  But nothing ever does so we`ll just have to remember

A                 F#m                         D          E     Esus E
  The nights were young when we thought we’d always be together

A                   F#m             D                   E     Esus E
  But we went our separate ways so we’ll just have to remember

F#m                         E        D     D D/C#
Though time slips by, the memories remain

        Bm            E                    A    D D/C# D/B
I could never forget when the nights were young
