The Killers - When You Were Young (Album: Sam's Town (2006))
E/// /// F# // G#m // B, E
You sit there in your heart-ache, Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways,
You play forgiveness, Watch it now, Here he comes
He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus, But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined, When you were young
Can we climb this mountain I don’t know,
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow,
Let’s take it easy, easy now, watch it go
We’re burning down the highway skyline,
On the back of a hurricane, That started turning
When you were young; When you were young
And sometimes you close your eyes,
And see the place where you used to live
When you were young

They say the devil’s water It ain’t so sweet, You don’t have to drink right now
D#m B F#
But you can dip your feet, Every once in a little while
You sit there in your heart-ache, Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways,
You play forgiveness Watch it now Here he comes
He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined, When you were young
(talks like a gentleman), (like you imagined)
When you were young
I said he doesn’t look a thing like Jesus
He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus

But more than you’ll ever know
