Verse: 
          A                                     D                                     E 
   So I'm saying goodbye to the life I've lived, all the slackers and the burnt out kids 
       A                                    D                               E 
   The times we had, those times were great, had no future but we had our rage 

   Pre-Chorus 
F#m 
   You know that you can be, what you want to be 
D                       A       E 
   Only if you put your mind to it 
F#m 
   It never occurred to us, because we were lost 
D                                    A   E 
   Growing through the cracks in the street 

  

[Refrão]
D                             E 
   I take these memories with me 
D                             E 
   At least we were young and free 

   Verse: 
       A                               D                     E 
   Sometimes I wonder about my friends, and what became of them 
   A                           D                          E 
   Once we were out of control, now we're just...growing old 

   Pre-Chorus 
F#m 
   I can't keep looking back, it's all in the past 
D                        A    E 
   Torn and tattered old photographs 
F#m 
   Frozen in their frames, the faces still the same 
D                       A         E 
   My heart is carrying all their names 


[Refrão]
D                             E 
   I take these memories with me 
D                             E 
   At least we were young and free
