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

                     C#m                                                          E                                       G#m

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

         (Fill section:-)  E, D#m,  C#m,  B,  A#m,  G#m,   F#  

But more than you’ll ever know
