Capo on 3rd fret

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