Intro: Riff 1(x3) Riff 2
For verses acoustic guitar plays: G C Am D
Riff 1
When we were young nobody died
And nobody got older
Riff 1
The toughest kid in the street
Could always be bought over
Riff 1
And the first time that you loved
You had all your life to give
Riff 2
At least that's what you said
Riff 1
The first time you got drunk
You drank pernod and dry cider
Riff 1
Smashed a window in
As the police came around the corner
Riff 3
You didn't have no time to run
And your dad stood up for you
As the judge said you're a fool
G
Babies, sex and flagons, shifting women, getting stoned
C
Robbing cars, bars and pubs, rubber johnnies, poems
Am
Starsky and Hutch gave good TV
D
And Starsky looked like me
Riff 1
The first time that you stole
You stole rubber lips and tenners
Riff 1
Bought a radio then ran away for ever
Riff 1 Riff 2
Never felt so good, never felt so good with you
Riff 1
When we were young we had no fear
Of love nor sex nor warnings
Riff 1
Everyone was hanging out, everyone was sorted
Riff 3
When we were young nobody knew
Who you were or what you'd do
Nobody had a past that catches up on you
G
Babies, sex and flagons, shifting women, getting stoned
C
Robbing cars, bars and pubs, rubber johnnies, poems
Am
Starsky and Hutch gave good TV
D
And Starsky looked like me
G
When we were young
Em
What might have been
C Am
What might have been
G
What might have been
G
With a start he was awoken
From the middle of a dream
Em
He's making movies in his head
That never will be seen
C
He's holding Oscars in his hands
Am
And kissing beauty queens
What might have been
What might have been
G
When we were young
