Because We Are Young(Chords)

	        
C                                  G7 
Because we are young they say I?ll forget you 

                                 C 
They say I?ll forget that I ever met you 

                            C7         F 
And maybe they?re right but just for tonight 

                    C     G7             C 
Don?t say we?re not right because we are young 


                   F                   C 
Though our love is young we still have control 

                D7                 G7 
We know we must wait without being told 

   C                    C7               F 
We still have our pride we?ve nothing to hide 

                C     G7             C 
Don?t cast love aside because we are young 


                                     G7 
I know they mean well when they criticize me 

                                          C 
I wish in their hearts they knew what?s inside me 

                    C7               F 
I know my own heart love must have a start 

            C     G7             C 
Why keep us apart because we are young 


              F                        C 
And someday I hope they?ll know how we feel 

          D7                       G7 
When they realize that our love is real 

   C                        C7         F 
So please hold me tight and just for tonight 

                    C     G7             C 
Don?t say we?re not right because we are young
