Intro
C G Am F
C G
oh when we were seventeen, our life was like a film
Dm F
when we were seventeen the sky was always tangerine
C G
we ran through streets at night, under starlight
Dm
we ran through streets at night
F C G Am F
when we were winning
C G
oh wild was the world, and wild we burned
Dm F
we were kings of the streets, not yet beaten by defeats
C G
but now it’s hard to see, through a fog of memories
Dm F C G Am F
but I remember, when we were winning
C G
now my friends are unemployed, not needed in this world
Dm F
pushed down by this town and always turned down
C G
but in dreams at night, they can sometimes recall
Dm F C G Am F
when we were heroes, when we were winning
Am G F Am G F
what have we done to our lives? we could’ve been anything
Am G FCG (C G Am F 2x)
we gave it our love for what? this is the time
C G
oh it’s in the air at night there’s a wind coming in
Dm F
the days dying, oh it’s so beautiful
C
there’s something happening somewhere
G Dm
I take the bus in to town, all I see is laughing
F C G Am F
and we are winning
C G Dm F

C G Dm
before tonight’s the memory let’s go out
