[Intro]
G A G A
[Verse 1]
G A
We were just a couple years short of the age by my name on my fake ID
G A
And still ’bout a hundred away from the day your daddy said you could run with me
G A
We were a couple of line-steppers that just couldn’t wait to step over the line
G A
Never thinking we wouldn’t last, I was your first and you were mine
[Chorus]
G A D
We were leather jackets hanging onto a Harley, two heartbeats in the moonlight
G A D
We were both feet hanging out over the edge of a water tower skyline
Bm A G D
At least there’s a little bit of sweet in the bitter, though a part of me is always gonna miss her
Em7 A
I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were
G A G A
[Verse 2]
G A
We were gonna make it, weren’t we, baby? Had it all laid out in out in our mind
G A
By the time we knew time was runnin’ out, we’d done run out of time
G A
We were a downtown, Saturday night; last call, cover band
G A
‘Til that last song played, never thought we’d fade like the stamp on the back of her hand
[Chorus]
G A D
We were her on my shoulders, lighter in the air, “Pour Some Sugar on Me”
G A D
We were top down at Johnson’s field when she whispered that she wants me
Bm A G D
At least there’s a little bit of sweet in the bitter, though a part of me is always gonna miss her
Em7 A
I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were
G A G A
[Chorus]
G A D
We were leather jackets hanging onto a Harley, two heartbeats in the moonlight
G A D
We were both feet hanging out over the edge of a water tower skyline
Bm A G D
At least there’s a little bit of sweet in the bitter, though a part of me is always gonna miss her
Em7 A
I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were
G A
Mmm Yes, I do
G A
G A
Freiends say, Oh well; Let that ship sail, you gotta let go of her
G A
Just wasn’t meant to be, but somewhere down deep; I still believe…
G
that we were
